Reviews
Yomi Braester, author of Painting the City Red: Chinese Cinema and the Urban Contract:
Photo Poetics excitingly addresses hitherto-unnoticed tensions between modern media and premodern form in early Chinese art photography. Shengqing Wu expertly applies China studies paradigms while engaging with scholarship on Chinese poetry, painting, and modernity.
