Shaolin: Temple of Zen
"This work documents, for the first time in history, the notoriously guarded warrior monks of the 1,500-year-old Shaolin Temple. Guariglia earned the trust and full collaboration of the Shaolin monks, creating an empathetic record of the Shaolin art forms and the individuals who consider themselves the keepers of these traditions." --Photo District News"Photos capture cloistered monks and kung fu tradition." -- Diane Haithman --The Los Angeles Times"The book also included black-and-white shots taken at night, lit by just one dim light bulb. These shots are highly atmospheric but they also reflect genuine kung fu practice and the extent of Guariglia's achievement in getting access -- the monks traditionally did kung fu at night so that no one could see what they were doing." -- Diane Smyth  -- The British Journal of Photography
