註釋Featuring the most prominent names in contemporary Chinese photography, these pocket-sized monographs explore the extraordinary diversity of the genre and showcase a creative, liberated, and unique artistic perspective. The collections present an obscure tableau of modern Chinese society, from magnificent landscapes and never-before-seen industrial compounds to the desires of China's new youth and its growing sociopolitical challenges. The imagery from some of the most exciting artists working today--including "the invisible man" photos of Liu Bolin and the world-famous coal miner portraits of Song Chao--is prefaced with a concise essay that explains the background and inspiration of each featured photographer.

The most complete monograph of the works of Wang Qingsong, China's most acclaimed photographer. His overscaled photographs, requiring hundreds of models and weeks of labor to build, his gigantic stages are redefining the scale of photography. His works are like still narratives of China's mutation over the last few decades. Combining a pop and kitsch aesthetic with humor, Wang Qingsong tackles the main issues challenging his country and the world today. Wang Qingsong is a reference in Chinese contemporary art.
