Gebonden, Hardcover met stofomslag compleet. 270 pagina's. ISBN 9789491819322. Over the last twenty years, Hellen van Meene has produced a complex body of work, offering a contemporary take on photographic portraiture. She captures the intimacy in the photographer/subject relationship, bringing out a sense of honesty and vulnerability from within her models and highlighting the beauty of imperfection. She carefully poses her subjects in their environments to emphasize their fragility. At the same time, she captures them at deeper, more introspective moments-masterfully moving between the staged nature of the portraits and the real experiences of her subjects. This book brings together more than 250 images, for the most comprehensive presentation of the artist's work to date. Recensie(s) Een universeel fotoalbum van meisjes op weg naar volwassenheid, uit het oeuvre van erkend Nederlands fotografe Hellen van Meene. In de periode 1995-2014 legt Van Meene in Nederland, maar ook in onder meer Letland, Japan en Turkije anonieme modellen vast. Na een literair kunsthistorisch essay van Martin Barnes, hoofdconservator bij Victoria & Albert in Londen, volgen ruim 135 paginagrote kleurenfoto's. Te zien is hoe onopgemaakte ogen weemoedig in gedachten zijn verzonken, het haar een eigen leven leidt en de kleding ongemakkelijk langs het onvolgroeide lichaam valt. Van Meenes zoektocht naar sporen van volwassenheid maakt dat zij vanaf 2011 ook sprekende hondenportretten maakt, met en zonder de meisjes. Stillevens met kleding- en bloemstukken en ook enkele jongensportretten zijn in de publicatie opgenomen, wat het tot een breed overzichtswerk maakt. Afsluitend is een foto-index aanwezig. Het Nederlandstalige fotoboek toont fotografieliefhebbers hoe een puberaal moment van introversie eruit kan zien voordat het voorbij is, naar de composities van Hellen van Meene. *Drs.
