Published on the occasion of the landmark retrospective exhibition of the same name held at the Galerie Paris-Beijing in 2014. Presents "Liu Bolin". The most comprehensive presentation of his performance-art thus far, in a chronological sequence of panoramas. Liu Bolin gained enormous recognition with his "Hiding In The City" photographs. As a result of the Series, Bolin was dubbed "The Invisible Man", an epithet that is catchy and accurate: The overriding theme of his oeuvre is the confrontation between individual identity and social reality, which tragically leads to the individual's "disappearing" state. In his later sequences, Bolin alludes to the uneasy contact between a Chinese artist (namely himself) and Western art, places, commerce, and consumerism, suggesting that they are all inextricably intertwined, and represent what it means to be human in our time, in the East and in the West. As now an omni-presence who remains an absence, Liu Bolin applies the same techniques (that made him famous, preceded in its use only by Veruschka's "Trans-figurations"), melding himself to the grandeur, the beauty, and also the tawdriness of the modern human landscape. It should also be noted that, in our Digital Age, none of Liu Bolin's work is digitized or Photo-Shopped. Instead, they are all painstakingly constructed, staged, and photographed by Liu Bolin, and this monograph shows in great detail how he does it through documentary photographs that he directed himself. An absolute "must-have" title for Liu Bolin collectors. This copy is very prominently, neatly, and beautifully signed in black ink-pen (in both Roman alphabet and Chinese characters) on the title page by Liu Bolin. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a great collection. As far as we know, this is the only such signed copy of the Exhibition Monograph available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. A rare signed copy thus. One of the most brilliant artist/photographers of our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER LIU BOLIN TITLE IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 2732463973. Signed by Author.…
