About This Item
STEIDL VERLAG, 2007. Hardbound. VG+ SIGNED OBJECT. BW glossy hardcover. 309 (3) pp, profusely illustrated in bw. Published to accompany an exhibition held at three different European venues in 2007-2009. Includes a BW postcard with lengthy inscription on it from the photographer to a curator. Valerie Belin"s photographs avoid simple representation or description, even though she often chooses to photograph simple objects, such as glasses, silverware, Venetian mirrors, cars, or animal carcasses. Instead she is attempting to unveil the very essence of her subjects and to delve into the deepest secrets of things, of matter and of light, almost independent of the objects themselves. This comprehensive retrospective of Belin"s work also includes all her other suites her questioning of corporeality in her explicit studies of bodybuilders; the series of Moroccan brides which broach complex issues of identity and representation; and, her investigations of hybrid entities, such as transsexuals, Michael Jackson look-alikes and the mannequins in shop windows.
