Joyce Brodsky

Experiences of Passage: The Paintings of Yun Gee and Li-Lan

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Brodsky brings together works by the expatriate Chinese painter Yun Gee (1906-1963) and his Chinese American daughter, Li-lan, exploring connections between each artist's life and paintings. As artists who have embraced multinational, multicultural, and multiracial experiences, Yun Gee and Li-lan have combined those experiences intrinsically, sometimes in spite of the pain that such a complex passage may entail. Joyce Brodsky is professor emeritus of art and theory at the University of California, Santa Curz.
