Steuber,Jason, and Guolong Lai eds.Collectors,Collections, and Collecting the Arts of China: Histories & Challenges

This volume,the third publication sponsored by the Harn Museum of Art and the University of Florida,contains a number of interesting discussions,investigations,and insights on the subject of collecting Chinese art in 1950s North America and Europe.Each chapter,dedicated to a single museum (in most cases),can stand on its own,in that each museum has its own history to share and its own challenges to face.I benefited from reading this work and learned much from its large quantity of information on museums' collecting histories and from the biographical accounts and studies of individual collectors.
