Blues and Greens
Alan Chong Lau’s poetic memoir of his days as a produce worker in Seattle’s Chinatown reveals a microcosm of grassroots, working-class Asian America—a world where customers, workers, and fruits and vegetables intersect in exchanges that crackle with energy and brim over with humor. With the simple profundity of a Zen koan, the poems bear witness to people’s humanity. Lau portrays in words and pictures a community in constant flux as it moves to the push and pull of immigration. Blues and Greens has a lot to say about Asian Americans. What emerges is an acutely observed, nuanced critique of where Asian Americans—native-born, refugee, and migrant—are today.
Andrew Lau and Alan Mak's Infernal Affairs - The Trilogy
Infernal Affairs has received journalistic, popular and corporate notice but little vigorous critical attention. In this book, Gina Marchetti explores the way this example of Hong Kong's cinematic eclecticism has crossed borders as a story, a commercial product and a work of art; and has had an undeniable impact on current Hong Kong cinema. Moreover, she uses this trilogy to highlight the way Hong Kong cinema continues to be inextricably intertwined with global film culture and the transnational movie market. Infernal Affairs served as the source for the Academy Award-winning film The Departed (2006). The Martin Scorsese-directed film won Oscars for best motion picture, director, adapted screenplay and film editing. This is the first time that an American film based on a Hong Kong production swept the Academy Awards by winning four top prizes.

"This exhibit consists of sketches and paintings done in two different neighborhoods within the span of a year. 'The Phinney Ridge series' was done during the late summer of 1988 when nature unveiled a number of brilliant sunsets; I sketched some of these landscapes from my studio apartment window and others as I walked along the ridge. 'The Shimogamo series' takes place in a neighborhood of Kyoto where I stayed with my wife's parents during a summer of sauna like humidity intermixed with squalls of downpour and later, longer typhoon induced storms." - From pamphlet
