This remarkable volume presents the extraordinary life and work of one of Taiwan’s most reclusive artists, Yeh ShihChiang, as curated by renowned curator Chang Tsong-Zung (Johnson Chang), and reimagined by Taiwan-US artist Yeh Wei-Li.

Constellations reects a deep anity between two artists who never met, but whose journeys intersect. Yeh Wei-Li has been reimagining and re-creating the life and living spaces of Yeh Shih-Chiang since 2015—archiving and restoring his printed matter, artworks, and inanimate objects; curating and designing exhibition and architectural structures; and recreating the actual physical spaces in which he worked. This book reects that journey, featuring more than 120 color plates. It also contains texts from leading international and regional art critics and scholars, including a dening introductory essay by Chang Tsong-Zung, and textual contributions from Corinne Diserens, Cheng Tsun-Shing, Boris Groys, and Tseng Shao-Chien.

Chang Tsong-Zung (Johnson Chang) is a curator, the director of Hanart TZ Gallery, a guest professor at China Academy of Art, and board director of Asia Art Archive. Yeh Wei-Li is an artist, curator, teacher, and instigator involved in large-scale and long-term collective and collaborative-based practice and projects.
