Abstract

Larry Sultan (1946-2009) is een van de belangrijkste Amerikaanse conceptuele fotografen. Hij groeide op in San Fernando Valley, het achterland van Hollywood in het zuiden van Californië. Deze streek van zijn jeugd was een belangrijke inspiratiebron voor zijn fotoreeksen Pictures from Home (1982-92), waarin Sultan zijn ouders in hun dagdagelijkse omgeving portretteerde, The Valley (1996-2001), die een blik achter de schermen van pornofilmsets biedt, en Homeland (2006-09), waarin het Amerikaanse beeld van het pittoreske wordt geconfronteerd met het leven van Midden-Amerikaanse dagloners in deze door migratie getekende streek. In zijn werk verweeft Sultan idyllische herinneringen aan plekken uit zijn jeugd met actuele sociaal-politieke onderwerpen. De reeks Evidence (1975-77), die hij samen met Mike Mandel creëerde met gevonden beelden uit wetenschappelijke en technische archieven uit de tijd van de Koude Oorlog, wordt door haar consequente bevraging van het auteurschap beschouwd als een keerpunt binnen de recente geschiedenis van de fotografie. Vertrekkend van verschillende contexten creëerde Sultan universele, tijdloze en tegenstrijdige beelden die lang bij de kijker blijven nazinderen. &#13;Dit boek is in 2015 uitgegeven naar aanleiding van de retrospectieve tentoonstelling over Larry Sultan in Kunstmuseum Bonn en S.M.A.K., Gent.

Abstract

I wanted to do something so absolutely different, and physical, and in a certain way, kind of ill-conceived? I took my camera and went underwater in a bunch of pools. And made pictures.?0Between 1978 and 1982, in a departure from the collaborative conceptual work that he had become known for, Larry Sultan photographed people learning to swim in public pools in San Francisco. Initially inspired by black-and-white documentary photograhs he found in a Red Cross swimming manual, Sultan soon began exploring an urge to create pictures that were physical, sensual, immersive, and painterly. The resulting work is saturated with colour and inflected by the unpredictable forms and chance abstractions which emerge through the distorted refractions of the water as a second lens. Often beautiful and regularly unsettling in their ambiguity, the series builds to create a feeling of sensory immersion alive with the fluid and uncertain atmospheres to which Sultan was drawn.0This collection presents all the pictures from the series Sultan himself chose and exhibited, and expands to include additional images he marked on contact sheets as well as further selections from his archive which he likely never even reviewed.0With a newly commissioned essay by Philip Gefter.

Abstract

In 1977, photographers Larry Sultan and Mike Mandel sifted through thousands of photographs in the files of the Bechtel Corporation, the Beverly Hills Police Department, the Jet Propulsion Laboratories, the U.S. Department of the Interior, Stanford Research Institute and a hundred other corporations, American government agencies, and educational, medical and technical institutions. They were looking for photographs that were made and used as transparent documents and purely objective instruments – as evidence, in short. Selecting 50 of the best, they printed these images with the care you would expect to find in a high-quality art photography book, publishing them in a simple, limited-edition volume titled Evidence. The concept for the book was clear: select photographs intended to be used as objective evidence and show that it is never that simple. Now an undisputed classic in the photo world, considered a seminal harbinger of conceptual photography, Evidence is nearly impossible to find. This reprint of DAP’s 2004 facsimile edition is being published in recognition of the project’s continued relevance, and will contain a facsimile copy of the original book plus a newly commissioned scholarly essay by Sandra Phillips of the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Additionally, this edition will include a new spread of images and a group of black-and-white illustrations selected by the artists from an archive of photographs that were not included in the original book.

Abstract

First published in 1992 to wide critical acclaim, Pictures From Home is Larry Sultan's pendant to his parents. Sultan returned home to Southern California periodically in the 1980s and the decade-long sequence he presents moves between registers, combining contemporary photographs with film stills from home movies, fragments of conversation, Sultan?s own writings and other memorabilia. The result is a narrative collage in which the boundary between the documentary and the staged becomes increasingly porous.

Abstract

"At the moment, photography is in a phase of change in which an altered conception of the documentary factor is emerging. It is not so much a matter of the portrayal or representation of reality, but rather of an artistically well-grounded idea of the world." So says Thomas Weski in his essay in this big, bold, and truly essential compendium of documentary and almost-documentary photographs. Featured artists include Diane Arbus, Tina Barney, Laurenz Berges, Dirk Braeckman, David Claerbout, Luc Delahaye, Rineike Dijkstra, William Eggleston, Walker Evans, Patrick Faigenbaum, Stephen Gill, Paul Graham, Andreas Gursky, Philip-Lorca diCorcia, Scott McFarland, Hans van der Meer, Boris Mikhailov, Martin Parr, Judith Joy Ross, Thomas Ruff, Taryn Simon, Alec Soth, Heidi Specker, Jules Spinatsch, Thomas Struth, Larry Sultan, Juergen Teller, Wolfgang Tillmans and Jeff Wall. Among the many fine features of this book are several paper changes, a section on the illustrations and artists' biographies. (Deuxième de couverture)

Abstract

Flowers have been a source of inspiration for photographers since the medium?s inception; immortalized by luminaries such as Man Ray, Robert Mapplethorpe, Irving Penn, and Julia Margaret Cameron. Today, flower photography has come into full bloom once again, with photographers capturing flowers in inspiring new ways. Featuring two hundred works, Flora Photographica links the very best of flower photography from the past twenty years with its predecessors?canonical floral images from the realms of photography, illustration, and painting that have marked the collective imagination.Works by contemporary photographers such as David LaChapelle, Valérie Belin, Viviane Sassen, and Martin Schoeller appear across ten thematic chapters, among them ?Origins,? ?Arrangements,? ?Essence,? ?Persona,? and ?Reverie,? which also include a brief introduction to the particular topic. These are complemented by two in-depth essays by authors William Ewing and Danaé Panchaud, which explore the relationship between contemporary works and the rich traditions of floral art and photography.Vibrant and abundant with various species of flora, this stunning book is both a celebration of beauty and a study of form, making it a must-have publication for lovers of flowers and photography alike.Bron : https://www.copyrightbookshop.be/shop/flora-photographica/
