Product Description:
Deep South. Testo ("Motherland") e 65 fotografie in bianco e nero di Sally Mann 4to. pp. 120. . Ottimo (Fine). . Prima edizione (First Edition). . The photographs in Deep South, many produced with the nineteenth-century collodion process and a variety of toning techniques, capture waht Mann calls the "radical light of American South". Borrowing methods favored by early masters of landscapes photography, Mann bends classic craftsmanship to serve the expressive needs of a heightened contemporary sensibility. From ghostly images of historic battlefields to painterly visions of Louisiana, Mississippi, Georgia, and her native Virginia, Mann's landscape photographs transport the viewer to another time and place.Le fotografie di "Deep South", molte prodotte con il processo ottocentesco del collodio e una varietà di altre tecniche tonali, catturano ciò che Mann chiama la "luce radicale del Sud americano". Attingendo ampiamente dai primi maestri della fotografia di paesaggio, Mann usa la fotografia classica per soddisfare le esigenze espressive proprie di una sensibilità profondamente contemporanea. Dalle immagini spettrali dei campi di battaglia storici alle visioni pittoriche di Louisiana, Mississippi, Georgia e della sua nativa Virginia, le fotografie di paesaggio di Mann trasportano lo spettatore in un altro tempo e luogo.
