Description: Yang Liu. Man meets Woman by Yang Liu Its time for a reality check with the opposite sex. As part of her best-selling pictogram series, leading designer Yang Liu distills the experiences, challenges, and many perspectives facing men and women, from age-old clichés to current debates, from boardroom politics to bedroom antics. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Imagine a setting in which a man wearing a dress might be as habitual as a woman in trousers. Where a woman exposing herself in public wasnt sexy, but as creepy as a male flasher. Where professional status and success presented the same prospects for both sexes. In this volume in her series for TASCHEN, leading graphic designer Yang Liu tackles one of the hottest, and one of the oldest, topics of all: he and she. Drawing on the experiences, challenges, and many perspectives on men and women she has encountered in her own life, Yang Liu distills the vast, swirling question of gender into bold, binary pictograms. Dealing with a whole host of situations from the bedroom to the boardroom, Yang Lius designs are as simple and accessible in their presentation as they are infinite in the associations, evocations, and responses they elicit. Combining age-old stereotypes with topical discrepancies, this fresh approach to the roles and relationships of men and women is, above all, an effort to synthesize a notoriously thorny issue into a fun and refreshing graphic form, and thus to lighten and enlighten our mutual understanding and tolerance. Author Biography Yang Liu was born in 1976 in Beijing. After studying at the University of Arts Berlin (UdK), she worked as a designer in Singapore, London, Berlin, and New York.
