Joyce Kozloff

de Robert Kushner, Joyce Kozloff

"Joyce Kozloff has never been to China, but she has fantasized about traveling the Silk Route for almost forty years. During that time, China has moved nearer to the West. For this project, Kozloff explored the China accessible to her, visiting the Chinatowns of Manhattan, Queens and Brooklyn in New York, and Oakland and San Francisco in California--all destinations on the 21st-century Silk Route. Her photographs convey the sensory overload of these locations, their surfeit of gaudy trinkets, cheap apparel and glittering electronics." --P.[4] of cover.
