    Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. No Jacket. Eakin, William (illustratore). 38 pp. with full-colour illustrations. Only the most minor signs of wear. Catalogue for an exhibition held at the University of Winnipeg's Gallery 1C03 from September 25 to October 19, 2003. "[The Cimitero di San Michele on Isola di San Michele] is a series of huge gardens studded with cypress trees. I went there for some quiet, to get away from the stress of the [Venice] Biennale. I was photographing vegetation in the park when I noticed a weathered Polaroid photo thumb-tacked to the wooden cross of a simple grave. One of the things I do in my work is to re-photograph photographs, and so I took a picture of this Polaroid. Then I looked for other photographs used in the same way and, in an older section of the cemetery, I found hundreds of enamel and ceramic photographs [attached to gravestones] that I also photographed. The original source photos had become distressed by ultraviolet light (probably from a thinning ozone layer) and acid rain and I connect that to our present environmental distress as well as my 'distress' as a middle-aged human being. I look for the beauty in this natural process that I think mirrors our own mortality ." - William Eakin.
