This collaborative album by photographer Michael Cherney and painter Arnold Chang challenges expectations by rendering a famous and easily recognizable site—the Yellow Mountains (Huangshan)—as a series of call-and-response abstractions between the lens and the brush. Cherney first took a photograph of Huangshan, then extracted from it a horizontal slice that he divided into twelve pieces (as seen in the illustration). Cherney then sent these pieces to Chang, who, after several months of contemplation, produced painted responses that run the spectrum from dry and descriptive to splashy and almost entirely abstract.
