This touring exhibition was on view at the DAC and the Mansfield Freeman Center for East Asian Studies. The Museum of Art Ein Harod organized the exhibition, which was curated by Chang Tsong-zung & associate curators Iris Wachs and Yan Shancun.

The exhibition gave a rare overview of post-1945 woodcuts. These propaganda pieces, dramatic landscapes, and intense psychological portraits are renowned for their technical virtuosity and often poignant emotional content, but have been largely unknown to the American public.

	Highly creative and stylistically diverse, these prints exhibit influences from early European modernism to Soviet-style socialist realism.
