Product Description

Product Description
Shanghai has been little changed physically since Mao established the Peopleâs Republic in 1949, but in the mid-1990s the city began an accelerated programme of industrial and economic development. Photographer Greg Girardâs ongoing photo series Phantom Shanghai depicts the effects of this transformation in a style that balances lyricism and anthropology.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great record of a vanishing city, 17 April 2009
This book for me is an inspiration. The photographs are awe inspiring, i did not believe some of the subjects in Girards images until i actually took a recent trip to the city of Shanghai. Moving subjects, brilliantly photographed!
One of my favourite photography books, HIGHLY RECCOMENDED!

2.0 out of 5 stars I don't get it, 12 Feb 2009
To me this work seems to lack focus and direction.In any event the book somehow didn't move me in any way.
Photographers like Nadav Kandar,Ernst Fischer and Dan Holdsworth have done this kind of work to a much more successful level.
