'Now is the Past' is jointly published with 'There is No Future' by the same artist. While 'There is No Future' vividly depicts the crowds of curious visitors of the Metropolitan Museum in New York, 'Now is the Past' blows-up and focuses on the faces of the personages. We print the miniature book by traditional letterpress machines, making you look closer to each and every masterly portraits. The two books, big and small, genuinely capture Huang's macro- and micro-scopic views of the world. From: nos:books
