CHINA: 50 Years Inside the People's Republic

Aperture presents China: Fifty Years Inside the People's Republic, bringing together images by twenty-five of the most important Chinese and Western photographers of our time who convey the depth of their involvement in Chinese culture, politics, and everyday life. A moving essay by Rae Yang, author of Spider Eaters (1997), writings by the photographers, and selections of ancient and modern poetry illuminate this collection, offering insight into a country that has been closed to the West for more than half of its existence.
