Glimmerings of Eternity
by Lew Yung-Chien
Description
Glimmerings of Eternity is the long-awaited sequel of the small red book 60 Chinese Cookies by Lew Yung-Chien. The book includes 50 inspirational thoughts taking a humorous, but serious look at the meaning of life. Each thought is presented in three languages: French, English and Chinese, with a colour photo and calligraphy. The photos have been taken all over the world (Europe, Canada, United States, China) by Lew Yung-Chien, a multi-talented author, calligrapher, tai chi teacher and photographer. This small book is so nice and affordable that it makes the perfect little spontaneous gift for a relative, a friend or even the readers themselves!

Reviews
« Le second ouvrage de ce photographe, calligraphe et artiste qui nous propose ses petites vignettes sages, sa vision du monde en trois langues, photos et pensées assorties dans une poésie fine comme un pinceau chinois. » -Josée Blanchette, Le Devoir
« Un recueil rempli de beaux mots, de belles photographies, qui fait du bien, tout simplement. » - 105.7 Rythme FM
« On prendra plaisir à feuilleter ce livre-objet, autant pour les photographies qui y sont reproduites que pour les mots qui les accompagnent et, parce qu'ils puisent à plus d'une culture, enrichissent notre lecture. » - Jean-Paul Beaumier, Nuit Blanche
Author Biography
Lew Yung-Chien was born in Shanghai, China. After earning his arts degree from National Taiwan Normal University, he completed his studies at l’École supérieure des arts modernes in Paris. The graphic design agency he later founded in Montreal catered to a blue-chip roster of Canadian corporations. Tai-chi has been a lifelong passion, integrated into Lew’s work and daily life. His book L’esprit du taï-chi (2009) was followed by 60 Chinese Cookies (2011). The latter was honoured in Taiwan in 2011 with the Arts Society of China Award. For the past twenty years Lew has been defining a new way to reflect reality with the camera, a style that he has labelled “swiftism.” He is also a devoted calligrapher, painter and potter, and a regular speaker in Silicon Valley and China. In 2014, he was elected to membership in the Royal Canadian Academy of Arts. In May and June 2015, his work has been the subject of a major solo exhibition in China.
