Hardcover. Bw illustrated boards, 31 cm l 22 w. unnumbered pages. Many bw, some color illustrations. "This book is the product of a rare and remarkable collaboration of people working in different fields, an artist, a photographer, two designers and a printer, who have been brought together by their mutual esteem and deep familiarity with the ouevre of Berlinde De Bruyckere. First and foremost this is an image book, a book that focuses on the challenging task of rendering and translating the very specific character of the artist's recent group of wax structures, the 'Schmerzensmann.' The photographs were made with a clear idea of the function and meaning of each sculpture and its representation within the book, all in close collaboration with the artist and the book designers. Mirjam Devriendt's photographs explore the bodies of the sculptures, subjecting them to minute scrutiny. Her gaze is capable of penetrating beneath the surface, the skin of a sculpture, as if to investigate the primal source of their disconcerting, cruel, often comforting beauty, as if to look for their 'soul.'" VG, some minor wear and staining to boards.…

Rilegato. Condizione: come nuovo. prima edizione. bird presents the culmination of Roni Horn's long-running photographic series of taxidermied Icelandic wildfowl. Photographed at close range against white backgrounds (as though obeying the conventional format of studio portraiture) the birds are viewed from behind, their unique physiognomies and markings resulting in inscrutable shapes and patterns on the photographs' surfaces. Despite the singular form of the title, the birds in this series are presented in pairs, images that are hung side by side one another highlighting the differences and similarities between the two. The gesture of doubling — as an aesthetic and conceptual strategy — has been a recurrent motif for Horn since 1980, a tool that invites careful scrutiny from the viewer, altering the dynamic of the work. Horn's images are accompanied by a text by the writer and curator Philip Larratt-Smith. Avoiding a dense, didactic reading of the series, Larratt-Smith has compiled an extended series of quotes, anecdotes and idioms, garnered from film, literature, photographers' monographs and Horn's own writings.
