Affair with China – The Dragon Through Gabriel Safdie’s Lens
A Blue Metropolis Festival Event
In Affair with China, Gabriel Safdie’s photography and narrative cover over four transformative decades in his extensive travels throughout the entire country from the 1980s to 2020s while working in trade and in the arts. As he wrote, “China’s one-eyed dragon rose, learned to fly, spread its wings and soared. Will this country, so driven to extremes, learn to find balance and a sense of proportion between the forces of yin and yang, resolving those always contrary tendencies?” Gabriel Safdie answers questions from writer Charlie Foran (Butterfly Lovers; Mordecai: The Life & Times; Just Once, No More).
