内容简介:
《CHANGZHOU FREE-STITCH EMBROIDERY》So much in culture changes gradually over time, evolving and developing into new forms and styles, until we can recognize a new distinct way of looking something. Sometimes this process is much more dramatic, and in the 1930s Yang Shouyu took Chinese embroidery into a whole new level of creativity. Breaking with a tradition of stitching going back many centuries, she found new depth by linking the techniques of western painters to her embroidery to develop innovative stitching techniques. Nuances of colour,perspective, and texture take her work, and the work of her descendants, to a form of artistic expression that embodies the artist and Chinese craftsmanship.
