2008Best.-Nr. 84170University of Washington Press. New. Hardcover. FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - Flawless copy brand new pristine never opened -- xvii 1 228 pages 70 illustrations; 4to. -- with a bonus offer--; In this generously illustrated volume the distinguished teacher author and critic Joyce Brodsky brings together works by the expatriate Chinese painter Yun Gee and his Chinese American daughter Li-lan exploring connections between each artist's life and paintings. Yun Gee 1906-1963 was born in China emigrated as a young man to San Francisco and after living there and in Paris spent the latter part of his life in New York City. Li-lan was born in New York to Yun Gee and Helen Wimmer Gee. She still lives and works in and near the city of her birth but has also spent long periods in Japan and more recently in China. Father and daughter alike exemplify the desire to live and work in freedom from the restrictions of national identity a choice that permits openness to different cultures. For Yun Gee and Li-lan this openness was never a reflection of trends in the art world but was an element of life itself fully embraced and therefore embodied in each artist's paintings. Both artists can be understood as cosmopolitan and transnational figures - citizens in Homi Bhabha's terms of contemporary culture's "middle passage." This book then although not primarily theoretical is informed by ideas of hybridity transnationalism and cosmopolitanism. 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. Li-lan was exposed to Yun Gee's paintings and his cultural sophistication when she was a child and this exposure was crucial to her artistic being. In turn she has broadened and deepened the audience for her father's art through her archival work her conservation of and her efforts to encourage exhibitions of his work. . 2008. 0295987758 .
