Rare Book
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
Synopsis:
Born in London in 1961, Adam Fuss creates photograms in colour and black and white and glossy daguerrotypes from magnesium plates. Since the early 90s Fuss, who is now based in New York, has been setting standards in contemporary photography with these photographic processes. His work can now be found in the world's most important collections, and the Metropolitan Museum in New York has been collecting his photographs for over ten years. This book presents over 100 new works in which Fuss attempts to record life and death. Colourful spirals leading into the depths, snakes creating waves in water, babies who seem to be x-rayed by his photographic light.

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. First edition, first printing. Boldly signed and dated in blue felt-tip marker on the half-title page by Fuss. Hardcover. Photographically illustrated paper covered boards and fine gray cloth covered spine with title stamped in black. Photographs by Adam Fuss. Essay in German and English by Thomas Kellein. Includes list of plates, exhibition history, and bibliography. Designed by Büro Beckmann. 112 pp., with 54 four-color plates and 8 additional color illustrations. 9-5/8 x 7 inches. Published on the occasion of the 2002-2003 exhibitions at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, and Kunsthalle Bielefeld, Germany. New (opened only for signature). From the publisher: "With [Louis-Jacques Mandé] Daguerre, William [Henry Fox] Talbot, [Etienne-Jules] Marey and William Blake as his predecessors, Adam Fuss creates photograms and daguerreotypes that evoke a general poetic and spiritual vision akin to urbanites of the 1800s, people who have lost contact with nature and God. While technically seeking to refine the beginnings of photography, Fuss attempts, in the 100 new works presented here, to record life and death. Colorful spirals created by pendulums lead into great depths; snakes create geometric waves in water; loving pairs of rabbits appear in silhouette; a hunched woman cries; sunflowers sprout withered leaves and broken stems; otherwise placid water bears the concentric marks of water drops; the shadows of silvery children's clothing hover in mid-air; light reflects on birds in flight--and all, for Fuss, mark the simultaneous presence and absence of the corporeal under the title My Ghost."
