Bibliografia – Bertha Lum

Il testo più utile per coloro che desiderano effettuare delle ricerche aggiuntive su Bertha Lum è sicuramente Bertha Lum, de Gravelos & Pulin, 1991, ed. Smithsonian Institution Press. Si tratta di una collana sugli American Printmakers.

Ho dunque attinto qua e là alla loro bibliografia per trovare le immagini di questo sito.

C’è anche My Own Pair of Wings, di Peter Lum, 1981, pubblicato dal Chinese Materials Center. È un resoconto autobiografico della gioventù di Pietro a Pechino e di sua madre.
