Phantom Shanghai by Greg Girard The Magenta Foundation HB 2007 First Edition ISBN 13: 9780973973914 ISBN 10: 0973973919 "Shanghai?a city in the process of dismantling its history to accommodate China's new cosmopolitan vision of itself."?Greg Girard. As Shanghai modernizes and seeks acceptance as an international city, buildings and neighborhoods that were once preserved simply by lack of intervention are now being purposefully demolished. Phantom Shanghai is a spectacular look at a Shanghai that won't survive the vision the country has for itself. Since the late '90s Girard has been photographing the city's buildings, shops, hutongs, homes, and neighborhoods, many of which have since disappeared. This stunning photographic journey is a look at present-day Shanghai. AS NEW, no defects, very clean, in AS NEW dust jacket now in protected in archival mylar. For an additional look at a vanished Chinese city, see "Beijing Hutong 101 Photos" by Xu Yong.
