About this Item

[London] : Mack, [2016]. Hardcover. 60 pp. Chiefly color illustrations ; 30 cm. - In this new body of work. Beyond maps and atlases, Bertien van Manen turns to Ireland. Van Manen says, At first, working in Ireland I wasn't sure what I was looking for. My husband had died. I dispensed with the people and reflected on the atmosphere. I was guided by a feeling and a search, a longing for some kind of meaning in a place of myths and legends. There was mystery and endlessness at the edge of a land beyond which is nothing but a vast expanse. where can it be found again? An elswhere world, beyond maps and atlases. Where all is woven into and of itself, like a nest of crosshatched grass blades Seamus heaney Van Manen rolled into photography almost by accident, taking pictures of her children with an old camera. As her work became more public she was soon drafted into the world of fashion photography. In 1977 she tired of the industry, and on discovering the documentary photograpy of Robert Frank and Josef Koudelka, van Manen began to explore the developing relationship between herself and her subjects, keeping a closeness and developing a personal, organic style of photography.

About this title

Synopsis:

32 colour plates / 32 fotografie a colori di Bertien Van Manen . 4to pp. 60 Rilegato (hardback) Nuovo (New) In questo nuovo corpus di lavori, Beyond Maps and Atlases, Bertien van Manen guarda all'Irlanda. Van Manen dice: 'In un primo momento, lavorando in Irlanda, non ero sicura di quello che stavo cercando. Mio marito era morto. Ho fatto a meno della gente e riflettuto sull'atmosfera. Ero guidata da un sentimento e da una ricerca, un desiderio di un qualche tipo di significato in un luogo di miti e leggende. C'era mistero e infinito al confine di una terra oltre la quale non c'era altro che una vasta distesa'. Van Manen si è imbattuta nella fotografia quasi per caso, scattando foto dei suoi figli con una vecchia macchina fotografica. Non appena il suo lavoro è diventato pubblico è stata subito risucchiata nel mondo della fotografia di moda. Nel 1977 stanca di questo settore e attratta dalla fotografia documentaria di Robert Frank e Josef Koudelka, van Manen ha cominciato a esplorare il rapporto che si sviluppa tra se stessa e i suoi soggetti, mantenendo con loro una vicinanza e sviluppando uno stile fotografico molto personale.
