A facsimile travel journal and photobook of photographer Danny Lyon's unique experience in a disappearing China.
With his vintage Leica and accompanied by a young translator named Lolly Pop, American photographer Danny Lyon traveled across Shanxi Province in northeast China six times between 2005 and 2009. The result of Lyon's unfailing enthusiasm for immersing himself in local banter and customs is an extraordinary portrait of China and the Chinese, one seldom seen by foreigners. Lyon's unparalleled photographic findings and discoveries are presented in this limited edition photobook alongside his handwritten annotations and commentary, as well as his ever-inquisitive and non-judgmental prose.
A travel journal and artist's book in one, this is a must for anyone with an interest in the curiosities of foreign discovery, photography and the myriad elements that go into welding the two together for reflection and reminiscences.
