New York. 2000. Callaway. 1st Edition. Very Good in Hardcover. No Dustjacket As Issued. 093511257x. Forward by Jonathan Spence. Essays by Geremie R. Barme and Lois Conner. 151 pages. hardcover. keywords: Photography China. FROM THE PUBLISHER-Photographic monograph of the photographer's venture to China with large format wide-angle view camera, all black and white images. ‘Lois Conner's vision of China, a landscape borrowed in her photographs, is one that itself has evolved over nearly two decades. Through her eye and her art these images, like the unfolding scroll paintings of Chinese scholar art, reflect the myriad aspects of her travels and fascinations, her obsessions and her observations. Yet Conner is not a casual photographer who has ‘done' China as part of an itinerary of sightseeing, or on photographic assignment to capture some ephemeral but newsworthy event. She was captivated by the art and poetry of that country long before she saw its landscape for the first time. '-Geremie R. Barme, from CHINA. inventory #15127.
