In this new book, Chinese-American artist Dazhou Wang recounts his decades-long journey, tracing his experiences from youth in China to his education, life, and artistic creations after moving to the United States in the 1980s. As both a personal biography and a motivational guide for studying abroad, the book records how the artist, born in Shanghai, realized his dreams in a foreign land through hard work and perseverance. This book not only holds significant reference value for scholars in the field of art but also provides valuable insights for researchers of cross-cultural art exchange and study abroad education.
NOTE: The talk will be in Chinese Mandarin.
