About This Item
Gottingen: Steidl, , 2007. Rilegato (hardback). Ottimo (Fine). Catalogo della mostra itinerante tenutasi presso: 1.Amsterdam, 2007 2. Parigi, 2008 3. Lausanne 2008/2009. Introduzione di Els Barente, William A. Ewing, Jean-Luc Monterosso. Un testo di Régis Durand. Un'intervista di Nathalie Herschdorfer all'artista. Fotografie in bianco e nero. Biografia, Bibliografia. 4to (cm 28,5x23). pp. 312. Ottimo (Fine). . Valérie 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 Belins 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. Le fotografie di Valérie Belin evitano la semplice rappresentazione o descrizione, anche se spesso sceglie di fotografare oggetti semplici, come bicchieri, argenteria, specchi veneziani, automobili o carcasse di animali. Cerca invece di svelare l'essenza stessa dei suoi soggetti e di scavare nei segreti più profondi delle cose, della materia e della luce, quasi indipendentemente dagli oggetti stessi. Questa retrospettiva completa dell'opera di Belin comprende anche tutte le altre sue ricerche: la messa in discussione della corporeità nei suoi studi espliciti dedicati ai culturisti; la serie di spose marocchine che affrontano complesse questioni di identità e rappresentazione; e le sue indagini su entità ibride, come i transessuali, i sosia di Michael Jackson e i manichini nelle vetrine dei negozi.
