Printed on pristine-white thick coated stock paper in Amsterdam to the highest standards. The reproduction quality is exemplary in every respect. Without DJ as issued. Presents "Chen Nong: Climbing To The Moon". The Chinese artist/photographer's masterpiece one of the most beautiful photographic sequences ever created in our time. As a one-of-a-kind photographer Chen Nong works more like a visionary film director/auteur of epic films. As each of the staged scenes in this magnificent volume shows his "cinematic" style is breathtaking and powerful: Using one of the earliest tripod cameras still working he recreates epochal events in Chinese history as well as his own personal experiences by casting amateur models in the case of key sequences hundreds of them and dressing them up in historically accurate period costume or their equivalent in hand-made origami. He shoots each scene in black-and-white and then injects his unique style by hand-painting each of the prints. You will not think of the hand-painted photograph in the same way again once you see what Chen Nong has done with it: He has transformed an old and now rarely-practiced photographic art into great art that resonates across space and time. The resulting images have the authenticity drama and intensity now missing in most contemporary films. One needs to be reminded that this is the photograph a two-dimensional still medium through which he manages to convey the action movement and violence of History itself. "Impresses most in relation to how it melds different ideas and thematic levels in a single piece. An army of terracotta-like soldiers is reminiscent of the terracotta army that was unearthed in China. Here however Chen himself created paper costumes for the men. The contrast of heavy terracotta and lightweight paper bathed in dramatic lighting reveals these figures as an army of morality. Invites you to sit down enter in and wander around his modern fantasy of Chinese history and reality" Publisher's blurb. An absolute "must-have" title for Chen Nong collectors. This title is a contemporary art photography classic.
