Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Edition. 112 pages, colour & b/w ill., 24.5 × 20.5 cm, English Torbjorn Rodland is to photography what the Pet Shop Boys are to pop: a master of the delicately orchestrated cliche overload, a surcharge of the too obvious, too cute or too inane, played to the point where, drained of all trace of common sense, it suggests a new sense of silence, of mystery. Rodland has a knack for producing images that make you ask what are, in fact, appropriate motives for art photography: Images of single audio or video cassettes? Bleak black-and-white renditions of countryside churches? George W. Bush's favorite ice cream? A black banana? Girls and pets, pets and girls? He creates a complex of readings that inveigles the viewer into spending time with each single image, to reconsider its meaning and relevance. White Planet, Black Heart makes no excuses as it reinvents the romantic impulses of popular culture. This is Rodland's first book. VERY GOOD (barely perceptible signs of shelf wear, clean and unmarked pages).

Hard cover. Condition: New. With I Want to Live Innocent, Torbjà rn Rà dland takes a break from the nomadic lifestyle reflected in his first book and returns to Stavanger, the city he grew up in. He doesn't revisit old haunts and the images aren't dominated by the geography of the region but Stavanger becomes a generous theatre for Rà dlands exploration of the incongruous complexities both of his own mind and that of our culture. The centre of Norways oil industry, this Protestant coastal city has seen a tremendous economic growth since the late 1960s and Rà dland utilises a diverse array of pictorial languages to reflect on the paradoxes which arise with the addition of newfound wealth and materialism.\n\nTorbjà rn Rà dland was born in 1970 in Stavanger, Norway. Since the mid-90s his photographs and experimental video works have been exhibited extensively. Rà dlands White Planet Black Heart was released in 2006 by SteidlMack. I Want to Live Innocent is co-produced by Stavanger2008 European Capital of Culture. \n\n \n\nEmbossed linen hardcover\n25 x 20 cm, 144 pages\n83 plates\n\nISBN: 9783865216175.

hardcover. Condition: Perfetto (Mint). Prima edizione (First Edition). 64 fotografie a colori di Torbjørn Rødland . Cm 28x21. pp. 112. . Perfetto (Mint). . Prima edizione (First Edition). . Un dizionario vi dirà che le confabulazioni sono disturbi della memoria; la produzione di ricordi fabbricati e distorti su se stessi e sul mondo, ma senza una consapevole intenzione di ingannare."La soggettività non è il significante principale dell'immagine", scrive Ina Blom a proposito del lavoro di Rødland, "né si perde in un vortice di astrazioni: è semplicemente un punto di connessione tra tanti. La macchina fotografica, con la sua gamma di obiettivi, impostazioni di apertura, dispositivi di illuminazione e tipi di pellicola, è un altro. [.] La lucentezza enfatica, il glamour elegante e la perversione disinvolta prosperano ancora, ma assumono un'esistenza indipendente come nuove realtà testuali, come se parlassero di un mondo materiale che non possiamo mai conoscere appieno".Con Confabulations, Torbjørn Rødland presenta una serie di fotografie analogiche che travisano sottilmente i ricordi infranti e le fantasie dell'infanzia. Confabulations distorce i fatti per arrivare alla verità. La frammentazione non è né rifiutata né indotta in questo approccio unitario, ma vista come punto di partenza per nuove connessioni. Tra un milione di sciocchi meme, Rødland è alla ricerca di una nuova anima. Book.

Condition: New. Torbjà rn Rà dland's photography is direct but idiosyncratic, pushing at the boundaries of aesthetic and social norms. His fifth book, Vanilla Partner, continues in this vein, combining images of fetishized isolation in a layout that rejects the linear structure of thematic photography books. Rà dland's practice navigates through the problematic and seemingly unchanging heart of popular photography. Accepting neither the humanist realism of most photographic portraiture nor the postmodern role-play, Vanilla Partner explores the cultural complexities and archaic foundation of contemporary image-making. Reconstructed scenes of ultrasoft BDSM read like twisted metaphors for photography's ability to freeze or capture. The book title, dripping in innuendo, also poses a question about the ambiguity of the relationship between the artist and his medium. Is Rà dland acknowledging the medium's straight foundation or does he see himself dominated by it? Many of the images also have explicit political references, often linked to the 1980 US Presidential election. Vanilla Partner brings together works made in Oslo, Tokyo, Beijing and Rà dland's current home, Los Angeles. Torbjà rn Rà dland was born in 1970 in Hafrsfjord, Norway. Since the mid-90s his photographs have been exhibited widely.\n\n\nEmbossed linen hardcover\n26 x 22 cm, 156 pages\n87 plates\n\nISBN: 9781907946318.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Torbjà rn Rà dland Confabulations Signed by the Photographer A dictionary will tell you that confabulations are memory disturbances; the production of fabricated, distorted memories about oneself and the world, but without a conscious intention to deceive. ?Subjectivity is not the master signifier of the image,? writes Ina Blom of Rà dland?s work, ?Nor is it lost in a vortex of abstractions: it is quite simply one point of connectivity among many. The camera, with its associated range of lenses, aperture settings, lighting devices, and film types, is another. [?] The emphatic sheen, sleek glamour and casual perversity still thrive, but they take on an independent existence as new textural realities ? as if to speak of a material world that we can never fully know." With Confabulations, Torbjà rn Rà dland presents a set of analogue photographs that subtly misrepresents broken memories and childhood fantasies. Confabulations distorts facts to get to truth. Fragmentation is neither rejected nor induced in this unitary approach, but seen as a starting point for new connections. Beneath a million silly memes Rà dland is looking for new soul.

hardcover. Condition: Perfetto (Mint). Prima edizione (First Edition). Volume realizzato in occasione della mostra tenutasi presso l'Haugar Art Museum, Norvegia 10 giugno - 3 settembre 2006. Testi di Gil Blank, Ina Blom, Hillary Raphael. Fotografie a colori e in bianco e nero di Torbjørn Rodland . 8vo (cm 24,5x20,5). pp. 112. . Perfetto (Mint). . Prima edizione (First Edition). . Torbjorn Rodland è per la fotografia quello che i Pet Shop Boys sono per il pop: un maestro del cliché delicatamente orchestrato, del troppo ovvio, troppo carino o troppo folle, giocati fino al punto in cui, svuotati da ogni traccia di senso comune, suggeriscono un nuovo senso di silenzio e mistero. Rodland ha la capacità di produrre immagini che ti fanno chiedere quali siano, in effetti, i motivi appropriati per la fotografia d'arte: immagini di cassette audio o video? Squallide immagini in bianco e nero di chiese di campagna? Il gelato preferito di George W. Bush? Una banana nera? Ragazze e animali domestici, animali domestici e ragazze? Egli crea un complesso di letture che induce lo spettatore a passare del tempo con ogni singola immagine, a riconsiderarne il significato e la rilevanza. Questo è il primo libro di Rodland. Book.
