East Meets West

East Meets West
East Meets West
Yang Liu's series of pictograms, East Meets West, has been published by Taschen. Each pair of pictograms illustrates a difference between Eastern (specifically Chinese) and Western cultures, expressed as a binary opposite. 

East Meets West was first published in Germany, as Ost Trifft West; Taschen's bilingual edition contains text in both English and Chinese. The author's intention is to "help other people avoid some of the stumbling blocks to communication between cultures".
