| Summary: | This publication, which accompanies a Queensland Art Gallery exhibition of the same name, surveys William Yang's five decades of art practice across photography, video and spoken word performance. It traces Yang's career from his early days as a social photographer in the 1970s through to some of his well-known photographic series exploring family ties, and sexual and cultural identity, as well as his recent large-scale landscape works. The publication also explores the artist's connections to Queensland, including his mid-career explorations of growing up as a Chinese Australian in far north Queensland and his recent works that reflect on the landscape. |
