In alignment with the current state of the core theme of the conference, the issue of globalization and localization in contemporary art exhibitions became a significant topic. This book not only presents a perfect outcome of the research seminar but also includes appendices such as the "Archives of Contemporary Chinese Art Curators" and the "Chronicles of Major Events in Contemporary Chinese Art Curation." These appendices reveal the of the development of experimental art in China, making them invaluable archival resources for studying contemporary Chinese art, particularly experimental art.
