Hardcover. Condizione: New. 48 unnumbered pages. The series contained within Dvale (hibernation in Norwegian) was created during the lead-up to the opening of the Norwegian hospital Ahus in 2008. Ivar Kvaal has captured the building in a slumbering state, in the weeks and months before it was brought to life. The images in the b…ook encompass a fragile and fleeting stillness, in sharp contrast to the hectic everyday life of hospitals. In Dvale whitewashed, unornamented rooms are filled with building equipment, stacks of ceiling panels and loose cables. Medical machines stand untouched, still covered by plastic. The geometry of these temporarily misplaced parts serve to create breaks in otherwise linear compositions, inviting sculptural associations that tend towards abstraction. The absence of bodies is striking Kvaal s images emphasize the hospital as a technical construct: a mass of individual parts reliant on medical and scientific knowledge. The book can be placed within the tradition of documentary photography, but avoids dramatic or narrative devices. The hospital is presented as a scenography under development, a backdrop for future events. Dvale can be conceived of as a contemplative space, where the beauty in functional and technical environments can become apparent. Ivar Kvaal (b.1983) has garnered critical acclaim for his photography in Norway and elsewhere. Images from the Dvale series have been exhibited at numerous institutions and galleries, including The Aperture Foundation in New York, Musée de l Elysée in Switzerland and The Devos Art Museum in Michigan. The series is also featured in Thames and Hudson s anthology reGeneration2 -Tomorrow's Photographers Today.

Hardcover. Condizione: New. In English; newspaper facsimiles in Norwegian. Description: 120 pages : illustrations (chiefly colour), facsimiles, portraits ; 25 cm. "For decades the people living in Hessdalen valley in Norway have been obsessed by spotting UFOs. Photographer Ivar Kvaal and writer Ola Vikås visited the valley… to find out why. Ola Vikås writes: Hessdalen had already been drained of its life force when the first lights started to appear in the valley. At a time when the cold war still enveloped Scandinavia in a fog of secrecy and uncertainty, in a climate where people were historically or indeed traditionally 'closed', it took quite some time before anyone dared to speak about what they had seen. Not even the neighbours, who were part of a close yet ever-shrinking community, were aware that they were witnessing the same phenomenon night after night. During the cold nights of December 1981, change finally arrived. The lights that had come to Hessdalen had shone brightly enough to attract the attention of sources that lay outside of the village. With the arrival of an eager press corps, the otherwise remote valley embarked on a whole new chapter in its history. From being a village that did not have anything exceptional to offer - with just a church, a community centre, a general store - Hessdalen soon became a gathering place, a point of reference, for a diverse group whose only common interest was in searching for something they could not understand. The long hoped-for attention, however, only brought ridicule and stigmatisation".
