520			_aThe famous graphic designer Yang Liu contrasts what we are with what we were. Reissued in four languages, Today meets Yesterday explores the transformations and challenges of an ever-evolving world through insightful associations of pictograms. Liu has become renowned for combining graphic precision with incisive observation of behavior patterns. In Today meets Yesterday, her perspective becomes more ambitious. From focusing on tastes and trends, Liu moves on to juxtapose the past with the present to explore fundamental changes in society. Along the way, we encounter ideological clashes, historical and current global dangers, our interaction with the environment, and the widespread impact of technology on our ways of living, learning, and loving, from online shopping to the rise of 'smombies' (pedestrians walking slowly, glued to their smartphones). From geopolitics to attention spans, nothing escapes Liu's keen eye, which is as attentive to the monumental events of history as it is to everyday life. Through Facebook, food waste, collectivism, and much more, Today meets Yesterday sheds a clear and revealing light that gives us new awareness and an ironic perspective on who we are and where we come from.
