Sharing some artist books made by 4 artists based in Chengdu. p1-6 @linxi_linxilinxilinxilinxi 
One book documents Linxi’s 2023 residency in Angoulême. Another, Mamie, Maman, et Moi, explores themes like womanhood and identity in today’s China through interviews with her grandmother and mother ( also in conversation with herself), along with archives of family memories. p7-9 @jingyi_jeanguy 
《它们·集》 is a true archive of plants found in China in the year 2222. This artist book is a part of her show Stupid Us and Them at C-platform, which imagines a future archaeological site and uses a plant’s perspective to reflect on nature and us human. p10-16 @blaircbh 
Lost Gloves is a collection of lost gloves on roads ( captured by Caicai and her friends), focusing not just on content but also on the artist book’s form—materials, sequence, and interaction. Soliloque is more personal, but also breaks traditional reading to create a closer dialogue between viewer and book. p17-20 Newniu as a comic artist based in Chengdu, draws from real life. Me and Lee tells stories of friendship since the 2000s—buying cars, starting businesses—set against the backdrop of a rapidly changing China. His comics show folk life and street scenes in Chengdu. #artistbook #chengdu #artistforartist
