Dear friend and visitor, 各位朋友,
Welcome to my site. The galleries on display here belong to the category of documentary photography. The main subject area is China and that country's rather rapid transformation from a rural to an urban-centered society. Taken together, these galleries constitute a visual archive that for the most part is meant to capture and to preserve information (or "evidence of certain developments" perhaps). Only sometimes are these photographs speculative or interpretive. And although I do not claim to aspire towards the highest degree of objectivity (or "truth") embodied in the image as such, I do claim a certain amount of authority over and understanding of the subjects treated in this visual fashion.
As of September 2007, specific themes prevalent in these galleries are:
1. Chinese modern art, including avant-garde photography;
2. Urbanization and architecture (both historical and modern);
3. Sacred sites, sacred mountains, and contemporary religious "theme parks";
4. The city of Tianjin (formerly known as Tientsin);
5. Views of the cities of Fuzhou and Yangzhou.
6. Impressions of Tibet (scanned photographs from my visit in 1986).
7. Historical photographs of China (from 1870 up to ca. 1955).
Thank you for your interest.
