Still. The East End Photographs is a collection of images about the landscape of Long Island, New York. Reflective and transcendent, these images evoke the quality of our natural world defined by light and the contours of nature. Cheng has photographed the environment using a shift of the focus plane within the camera to detail in a non-distinct yet decidedly emotional way, to evoke a poetic interpretation of the landscape that is constantly deriving its beauty and power from the colour palate and a sense of movement that defines the landscape of Long Island and which has inspired so many artists. In changing the focal plane he was able to redefine what he was seeing, in a sense, to un/define the reality and to present images, in a way that is open. That the clarity and truth is the viewers vision, and that he the image maker, is the portal into that vision. Text by Elisabeth Biondi, Edwina von Gal, Jack Larsen, E.E. Cummings, and Terrie Sulta.

Hardcover. Condition: Sehr gut. Gebraucht - Sehr gut Sg - leichte Beschädigungen oder Verschmutzungen, ungelesenes Mängelexemplar, gestempelt - Still. The East End Photographs zeigt Landschaftsfotografien aus Long Island, New York. In ihrer Nachdenklichkeit und Transzendenz führen uns diese Bilder den Wert einer von Licht und Kontur bestimmten Natur vor Augen. Chengs Landschaftsaufnahmen entstanden durch eine Verschiebung der Fokalebene in der Kamera, um auf kaum merkliche und doch ausgesprochen emotionale Weise eine poetische Interpretation der Landschaft zu schaffen, die ihre Schönheit und Kraft einem Gefühl für Farbe und Bewegung verdankt. So entstand eine neue Sichtweise auf die Landschaft von Long Island, die schon so viele Künstler inspiriert hat. Durch die Verschiebung der Fokalebene konnte Cheng das, was er sah, neu definieren, die Wirklichkeit um/definieren und so gänzlich offene Bilder schaffen. Die Klarheit und Wahrheit liegt im Blick des Betrachters und der Bildschöpfer ist das Tor zu diesem Blick.Texte von Elisabeth Biondi, Edwina von Gal, Jack Larsen, E.E. Cummings und Terrie Sultan.
