Synopsis
Coinciding with his first solo museum exhibition in North America, Neighbors presents more than 15 years of Roe Ethridge’s photographs, which typically and wryly collapse distinctions between commercial, conceptual and personal uses of photography. Divided into three ‘chapters’, the central section spans the American photographer’s entire oeuvre, from his early self-published projects to his most recent work, bookended by two almost inscrutable series in his signature deadpan style: family snapshots of grey, rural beach scenes, and images of farm animals – turkey, pigs, goats – to conclude. Rendering the mundane peculiar, hilarious even, Neighbors haphazardly traces the evolution of Ethridge’s attempt to bombard his viewers with a heady mixture of imagery, subverting the stylistic tropes of each genre as it relishes in the oddities of image-making and viewing. Included in Neighbors is an essay by Kevin Moore, the curator of Ethridge’s mid-career survey Roe Ethridge: Nearest Neighbor, which leads the 2016 FotoFocus Biennial at the Contemporary Arts Center in Cincinnati, Ohio. The title of the exhibition refers to the photographic term “nearest neighbor”, a type of sampling used when resizing a digital image. Like the title of the book, it also alludes to the personal nature of Ethridge’s work, as he frequently includes his family and friends, as well as himself, as subjects in his images, including his editorial assignments. Flouting distinctions between sentimental and commercial photography, Ethridge’s practice explores the ways in which our daily immersion in layers of imagery both mediate and generate meaning in our lives.

hardcover. Condition: Perfetto (Mint). Prima edizione (First Edition). Con un saggio di Kevin Moore. 134 fotografie a colori di Roe Ethridge . Cm 29x20,5. pp. 96. . Perfetto (Mint). . Prima edizione (First Edition). . In concomitanza con la prima esposizione personale in un museo del Nord America, Neighbours presenta più di 15 anni di lavoro di Roe Ethridge, che ironicamente annulla le distinzioni tra uso commerciale, concettuale e personale della fotografia. Il volume è diviso in tre "capitoli": la sezione centrale abbraccia l'intera opera del fotografo americano, dai suoi primi progetti autopubblicati alla sua opera più recente, ed è chiuso da due serie quasi imperscrutabili nel suo stile inconfondibile: scatti di famiglia in spiaggia o in campagna e immagini di animali da fattoria - tacchini, maiali, capre. Rendendo il quotidiano banale, quasi esilarante, Neighbors traccia l'evoluzione del tentativo di Ethridge di bombardare i suoi spettatori con un inebriante mix di immagini, sovvertendo i tropi stilistici di ogni genere e assaporando le stranezze della creazione e fruizione di immagini.
