Description
This collection presents an essay on the artist Zhuo Yourui (Y. J. Cho), New York-based Taiwanese woman artist, titled "The Wall of Life", by Cheng Mingzheng, which discusses the “anti-Western” role of Zhuo’s art within a postmodern context. The book includes her Wall Series, which is a series of 23 oil paintings depicting walls, with an objective and meticulous gaze to capture the minute textures of the wall, and to faithfully render the shifting appearances of this motif under different conditions of light and shadow, followed by another essay, "In the Shadows and Cracks: Viewing Y. J. Cho's Paintings in Taiwan," by Wang Jiaji, plus the artist's resume. (Zhuocheng Jiang '26)
