Beijing is China's capital city and one of the most populous in the world. Its history dates back three millennia and as a result it is seen as a centre of culture and art. This book is a photographic juxtaposition of contemporary architecture in Beijing, including the National Stadium Bird's Nest by Herzog de Meuron and ruins from the Garden of Perfect Brightness. "Lois Conner's riveting new book Beijing: Contemporary and Imperial is the culmination of her 30 years of visits to China. Its 156 pages contain 91 duotones, presented on 15" x 7.5" pages, which accentuate the panoramic views of ancient ruins, such as the Gardens of Perfect Brightness and the recently constructed ultra modern 'Bird's Nest' National Olympic Stadium. Given the age of this city, this wonderful pictorial survey does make obvious the clash of the modern with the ancient-it remains to be seen which will still be standing as Chinas leaps exponentially forward." - The Daily Beast
