A questioning of the role of the camera as obstacle between the photographer and reality continually enters into young Belgian photographer Tom Callemin’s artistic process. This inquiry is translated into haunting images that are usually created in the studio, requiring long periods of preparation. His work therefore reads as an ode to slowness. Meticulously constructed black-and-white compositions are contrasted with Callemin’s ongoing exploration of the portrait, resulting in a selection of enigmatic and refined images. This book is published on the occasion of a solo exhibition of Callemin’s work at FOMU Antwerp and includes a text by Taco Hidde Bakker.

This diverse collection of writings by Taco Hidde Bakker addresses the philosophy, politics, and art of photography, with topics ranging from the tension between artist and model to the landscapes of the American West and the predicament of transcultural photography. Bakker selected and revised sixteen pieces of writing from a variety of publications spanning the past decade of his journeys through photography and art. In addition, he penned four new pieces especially for this book. Often engaging in close collaboration with the artists about whose work he writes, Bakker explores different literary forms in response to their views, with a recurring reference to poetry.
