Although Chinese artists were given precise directions by the cultural authorities as to content and style, they managed to develop individual and regional styles and to produce some of the most effective graphic art in China’s long history in the print medium. Significantly, native Chinese aesthetic traditions resisted the onslaught of Socialist Realist style introduced during the 1940s and 1950s and selectively absorbed and modified Western influences to emerge with new vitality.
