Synopsis:
- The re-visitation and re-interpretation of her own view of America in the early 1980s by Simone Kappeler, one of Switzerland's most distinguished contemporary photographic artists
- First-ever publication of Kappeler's American collection of 1981-83
- Text in English and German
Thirty-five years later, Kappeler has revisited the vast collection that resulted from her undertaking. The selection of some 230 images and their composition reveal a consistent artistic perspective and a signature style. And even today, her 1981 view of America has lost none of its magic.
Text in English and German.

Hardcover. Condition: As New. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen. In the late 1970s and early 1980s, the youth of Zurich were rebellious. An entire generation of students sought fervently for the new. Simone Kappeler was one of them, and in 1981 she left her native Switzerland, setting off on a road trip across America. She took with her a 35 mm Hasselblad, as well as a Polaroid. Over the course of the journey, she would add a multitude of cheap cameras to this collection that enabled snapshot-like images--taken un-selfconsciously whenever a motif struck her. The resulting images reflect a direct and unrestrained manner, telling of immediate sensual experience and the longing for freedom and independence.Decades later, Kappeler has revisited the vast collection that resulted from her undertaking, and the result is this striking volume. Both the selection of images and their composition in the book reveal a consistent artistic perspective and a signature style. Through these photographs, we simultaneously see the development of an artist and a lost era of American life. Seller Inventory # 53ba6936-b6f5-40f7-8132-f3a93d4a04a6
