AB - Many groups and communities, including modern nation-states, strive to cherish and protect traditions that embody their identities. In line with this, many schemes and projects in the Chinese cultural industry set their agenda around the main issue of Chinese tradition. However, the status of tradition has constantly changed in the course of recent history. This paper seeks to examine the process of shifting national importance regarding tradition, focusing on contemporary Chinese Art history. In particular, it analyses how Chinese tradition is evaluated and perceived in two separate areas: government policies and the art market. This is because Chinese art is in general divided into two main sectors: government-led official art, and private art. The change in cultural policy from the Cultural Revolution to the restoration of tradition demonstrates the process in which tradition was once denied and then utilized according to political needs. It also studies the shift of capital flow from the foreign market to the domestic market, and its implications for contemporary art. Since the 2000s, the boundary between official and private has become less distinct, with the result that each influences the other.
