Abstract (English)

This catalogue provides an overview of the contemporary art scene in Wales. Adams' text focuses on economic and political factors influencing Welsh art. The role of hegemonic culture, artist involvement in international projects, and the need for critical discourse are also discussed. Works in a wide range of media by more than 40 artists are considered in relation to the following issues: language, landscape, industrialization, colonialism, sexuality, hybridity and collaboration. Includes brief artists' statements, descriptions of Welsh institutions and prizes, as well as contacts for exhibition spaces, artist-led organizations and journals. Biographical notes on author. 13 bibl. ref.
