Zusammenfassung:The first publication to document and explore the work of Chinese paper-cut artist Xiyadie (b. 1963), Queer Cut Utopias features a selection of the artist's astonishingly intricate works dating from the early 1980s through today. Xiyadie's singular artistic language originated in the traditional techniques of Chinese paper-cutting, fusing traditional folk forms and iconography with narratives from his personal life. Articulating a longing to express his queer desire, Xiyadie embraces the ancient art form while subverting it with defiant yet joyful expressions of individualism. In the artist's words: "This is my stage. Here I can dance with abandon, I can give free rein to my thoughts, I can live out my fantasies. Here, I can fly to the moon, I can become a butterfly, I can love, and I can hate. This is the place where I can be." -- Page 4 of cover
