In this rich social and cultural history of Shanghais art and culture, Lynn Pan guides the reader through the myriad world inhabited by commercial and underground artists and designers, performers, architects, decorators, patrons, as well as politicians, generals, and crime bosses. What emerges is a singular portrait of a city and its art-its life blood, in an era that continues to capture the imagination of art lovers and cultural critics today.Lynn Pan is the best-selling author of Sons of the Yellow Emperor: A History of the Chinese Diaspora; Tracing it Home: A Chinese Journey; and The Encyclopedia of the Chinese Overseas. She lives in Shanghai.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51321838633248,"sku":"NEW1592650783","price":28.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/51DLeN6MTHL.jpg?v=1773104213","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/shanghai-style-art-and-design-between-the-wars-1592650783","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
