Beijing: Theatre of the People │By (author) Ambroise Tézenas , By (author) Patrick Zachmann

Winner of the Leica European Publishers Award.In the streets of Beijing, Ambroise Tezenas discovered a landscape that offered an unexpected vision: its spaces almost stage sets in which contemporary Beijing plays out a complex struggle. It is a city caught between two worlds--an ancient past and a frenzied present. Included are images of the construction of major projects such as the Opera House, Grand National Theatre, and the Olympic Stadium--all part of the city's furious redevelopment.
