Published to accompany Forever Tomorrow: Chinese Art Now, Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki’s major exhibition examining the evolution of Chinese contemporary art since China’s Reform and Opening Up in 1978.

Bringing together sculpture, photography, painting, installation, and digital works, the exhibition explores themes of rapid social change, urbanisation, globalisation, and cultural transformation. The publication features essays by leading curators, writers, and scholars, offering insight into the artistic responses to one of the most significant periods of social and economic change in modern history.

Featuring works by internationally renowned artists including Ai Weiwei, Xu Bing, Xu Zhen, and Yang Fudong, alongside influential contemporary practitioners making their New Zealand debut, the catalogue provides a compelling survey of Chinese art today and its global impact.

Designed by Philip Kelly, the catalogue is a refined case-bound publication. The cover is offset printed onto 125gsm Wibalin Buckram and finished with a debossed title, while the interior is printed on 100gsm Polar Offset with 150gsm matt endpapers. Section-sewn binding ensures durability and a lay-flat reading experience.
