Photo Book Storytelling in Mandarin: Field Trip

This Saturday, while we were waiting on our books to be printed, we went to Chelsea for a field trip. Our first stop is Printed Matter, where we were greeted by Chinese artist Yuchen Chang, who introduced us Printed Matter’s history and some of their books. Then we went to High Line Park and took some photos. In the end we visited some Chelsea galleries, including Klein Sun Gallery where their staff Ms. Tang Rui introduced their current shows.
