The Cambria Press double book launch at iPreciation on July 14, 2018, was a great success! The audience was treated not only to fascinating talks by celebrity artist Shen Jiawei and Professor Mabel Lee about their books Painting History: China’s Revolution in a Global Context and Gao Xingjian and Transmedia Aesthetics but also the introductory speech by distinguished guest of honor Professor Victor Mair and an impromptu speech by another eminent guest Professor Wang Gungwu. In addition, attendees were able to view the paintings of another Cambria author Nobel laureate Gao Xingjian, who has his major paintings held at iPreciation.
