Xu Yong This Face. culture of china publications, 2011. Phot - Lot 198
Xu Yong This Face. culture of china publications, 2011. Photographer Xu Yong took 500 portraits of Zi U, a sex worker in Beijing. He accompanied her during the course of a normal working day, taking regular close-ups of her face, often just after a client had said goodbye. Xu Yong thus immortalized her life and mood, drawing on her diary entries. The result is a realistic and intimate insight into the lives of sex workers in China. Page after page, the book shows how a Chinese woman observes and reacts to the world. Zi U's face reflects her personal feelings about life, as well as the aspirations of today's China. The series is forbidden there; this illustrated book makes it accessible. mint condition in blister pack.
