Liu Xiaodong
The remarkable plein air paintings of Liu Xiaodong (b.1963), which chronicle everyday lives within our diverse modern world, are the focus of this first monograph of his career to date. Immersing himself in communities around the globe, Xiaodong seeks to present people who often sit on the fringes of society who find themselves marginalised within a contemporary world striving for homogenisation. At first glance a traditional realist painter, closer examination reveals an artist exploring a range mediums while interrogating the opportunities presented by modern technology. The result is an outstanding body of work, often monumental in scale, that examines, reconsiders, and extends observational painting in fresh directions, while bringing into question the lines between fact and fiction, the traditional and the contemporary, to create a wholly original vision.
Liu Xiaodong
In his oeuvre, Liu Xiaodong shows moments and stories from human life as well as situations and landscapes with an outstanding immediacy and extraordinary empathy. Liu Xiaodong only depicts what he sees with his own eyes, smells with his own nose, and hears with his own ears. At the beginning of each work, he spends time with the subjects in their daily lives before portraying them. This participatory dimension of his artistic practice is accompanied by journal notes and photographs. In addition, alongside his projects, he creates films that approach the various topics from the perspective of the moving image. The artist encounters the stranger with the utmost openness, so as not to succumb to the deception of clichés or preformed opinions. He is a painter of modern life who addresses the question of the human condition, as well as global issues that are directly linked to it, such as demographic shifts, environmental crisis, and economic upheaval.
Liu Xiaodong
This publication documents a month-long residency undertaken by Liu Xiaodong in Qatar between February and March 2016 for the exhibition, What About Art curated by Cai Guo-Qiang for AlRiwaq Art Space in Doha (2016).The book is presented as a diary, comprising the artist's detailed thoughts and studies of Qatar's landscape and subjects. Liu completed 9 groups of small landscaping paintings, each one selected through geographic coordinates tracing the shape of a star and a crescent in the country.The book is accompanied by a documentary film realized by Tong Weijun, a long time collaborator of Liu Xiaodong, who casts a view of the country and its people depicting the process of Liu Xiaodong's artistic creation and the challenge of a more restrict palette embracing the impact the desert and the Arab culture.Includes an exclusive DVD featuring Weijun's film.

Drug Transporters in Drug Disposition, Effects and Toxicity
This book provides with a comprehensive overview of the role of drug transporters in drug disposition and efficacy/toxicity, as well as drug-drug interactions and recent advances in the field. Transporters are known determinants of drug disposition and efficacy/toxicity. In general, they are divided into solute carrier (SLC) and ATP binding cassette (ABC) families, and are located along cell membranes, where they mediate drug uptake into cells and export out of cells. Drug transporters are essential in maintaining cell homeostasis, and their gene mutations may cause or contribute to severe human genetic disorders, such as cystic fibrosis, neurological disease, retinal degeneration, anemia, a...
Liu Xiaodong. New England. Ediz. inglese e cinese
The volume New England brings together a series of portraits by Liu Xiaodong of homonymous subjects. The project represents the artist?s search to portray a generation of young Chinese professionals who have moved to London to try and follow their dreams.00The subjects are portrayed in their own habitats, their private settings. They try to demonstrate well-being; the viewer notices their clothes, the accessories that surround them and the environments in which they have chosen to place themselves. This glance shows a possible way into the hidden side of the relationship between migration and integration. We are forced to question whether there is any relation that governs the connection between an individual and his surroundings.
Liu Xiaodong: Borders
Liu Xiaodong has been painting and documenting sociological settings for more than thirty years. [...] Over the times, as he embarked upon a personal exploration of painting, he evolved closer to post-conceptual ideas, which incorporated the influences of photography and film as important references. Painting from direct observation, many times on location, the artist has created a new series of paintings from the Texas-Mexico border. For eight weeks, he embedded himself within border communities and focused on cities such as Ciudad Juárez, El Paso, Eagle Pass, Piedras Negras, Laredo, and Nuova Laredo as departure points to create his works. His paintings document individuals, locations, an...

Using numerous real-world examples based on contributors’ professional experiences, it provides priceless insights into the actual and potential applications of CAD across a wide range of industries. Charged aerosol detection can be combined with a variety of separation techniques and in numerous configurations. While it has been widely adapted for an arra...
Artificial Intelligence and Security
This two-volume set LNCS 12239-12240 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Security, ICAIS 2020, which was held in Hohhot, China, in July 2020. The conference was formerly called “International Conference on Cloud Computing and Security” with the acronym ICCCS. The total of 142 full papers presented in this two-volume proceedings was carefully reviewed and selected from 1064 submissions. The papers were organized in topical sections as follows: Part I: Artificial intelligence and internet of things. Part II: Internet of things, information security, big data and cloud computing, and information processing.
Uncertain Labeling Graphs and Uncertain Graph Classes (with Survey for Various Uncertain Sets)
Graph theory, a branch of mathematics, studies the relationships between entities using vertices and edges. Uncertain Graph Theory has emerged within this field to model the uncertainties present in real-world networks. Graph labeling involves assigning labels, typically integers, to the vertices or edges of a graph according to specific rules or constraints. This paper introduces the concept of the Turiyam Neutrosophic Labeling Graph, which extends the traditional graph framework by incorporating four membership values—truth, indeterminacy, falsity, and a liberal state—at each vertex and edge. This approach enables a more nuanced representation of complex relationships. Additionally, we...
