Barber, essay by Alison Devine Nordstrom Umbrage Editions 2006 HB First Edition Stated 112 pp. ISBN 1884167535 From the dust jacket: "Craig Barber's sumptuous platinum prints capture the exquisite beauty of the Vietnamese landscape while also serving as a visual diary of a veteran courageously returning to a place where he once witnessed absolute horror. Mostly un-peopled, Barber's pictures resonate with a tension between beauty and eeriness. When humans do appear they are ghosted, becoming poignant visual metaphors for the imprecision, yet persistence, of memory, as well as for the unfortunate souls forever lost to and scarred by the war."
