Over seven years, Scott Peterman has braved the harsh winters of the far Northeast to document the icefishing houses in the lakes region of Maine and New Hampshire. Made with lightweight, windproof materials, their architecture is simple and unrefined, yet ingenious and graceful. With his typological approach and delicate eye, Peterman translates the shacks into art objects. Photographed in the rain, fog, and snow, the houses become mysterious and transcendent. PHOTOGRAPHER: Peterman, Scott

Condition: Sehr gut. Unpag. Umschlag leicht berieben, sonst gutes Exemplar. - In his meditative photographs, Scott Peterman reduces the landscape to its most minimal form. The images become silent and static as Peterman entices the viewer to focus intently on one element of the photograph, be it an ice-fishing shack, a storm fence, or the empty vista itself. Like a deliberately staged "aesthetic experience," it seems as though the rest of the world has dropped away. Since 1998, Peterman has been photographing ice-fishing shacks, also known as bobhouses, in both Maine and New Hampshire. His tranquil images convey the experience of being alone in a vast and empty landscape. ISBN 9780976670872 Sprache: Deutsch Gewicht in Gramm: 1550 Fadengehefteter Originalpappband mit Schutzumschlag.
