Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This is a book of snapshots of domestic and exotic animals, mostly taken at night by automatically triggered camera traps. So they are lucky shots. The artist Alex Hanimann has succeeded in reaching a wider public with these automatic photographs, originally intended only for the use of a small circle of zoologists, and bringing out previously unnoticed aspects thereof, which in turn raise questions about the authorship and use of digital pictures. Moreover, these strange automatic compositions, each of which is animated by a highly idiosyncratic aesthetic, are reassessed according to artistic criteria of form and content by embedding them in the context of art.Shot for scientific purposes in various habitats and climatic zones, the pictures are reexamined here in terms of visual logic and artistic potential, with a particular focus on such compositional aspects as lighting, cropping and texture. A mechanism, or rather an animals behavior, its movements, triggers the shutter release in each photo. The upshot is, consequently, a form of unconscious and never-intended selfie.In this book Alex Hanimann takes his artistic perspective of animal observation to another level, that of automatic photography. With his extensive collection of images, he orders the ways in which animals are viewed for scientific and preservation purposes. But unlike animal preservationists, the artist is also interested in atmospheric aspects of these green gray worlds as well as the moments when the camera fails, capturing only a fleeting glimpse of the fleeing subjects hind legs. Flawed fragments are just as exciting as successful wholes.The history of photography is that of a complex and ever-evolving relationship between the motif caught by the camera and the subjective gaze of the viewer who sees and interprets the resulting picture. Even when captured at night, the animals often elude our attempts to identify, to fix them, in a flash.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Das Buch zeigt Momentaufnahmen von heimischen wie exotischen Tieren, die zum grossen Teil bei Nacht mit einer automatischen Kamera ausgelöst wurden. Es sind Zufallstreffer. Ursprünglich nur einem kleinen Kreis von Tierforschern vorbehalten, gelingt dem Künstler Alex Hanimann eine Öffnung hin zu vorher unbeachteten Aspekten in der Betrachtung der Bilder. Fragen nach der Autorenschaft und dem Umgang mit digitalen Bildern werden eröffnet. Aber auch die seltsamen Kompositionen dieser automatisch entstandenen Aufnahmen, die jeweils von einer ganz eigenen Ästhetik belebt sind, werden durch die Einbettung in den Kontext der Kunst nach ihrem formalen und inhaltlichen Aufbau neu bewertet.Die zunächst für wissenschaftliche Zwecke entstandenen Aufnahmen aus unterschiedlichen Lebensräumen und Klimazonen werden auf ihre visuelle Logik, auf ihr künstlerisches Potenzial hin untersucht. Kompositorische Begriffe wie Licht, Ausschnitt oder Stofflichkeit sind von besonderem Interesse. Wann die Kamera abdrückt, bestimmt ein Mechanismus bzw. das Tier mit seinen Bewegungen, mit seinem Verhalten. Insofern ereignet sich hier auch eine Form von unbewusstem, nie beabsichtigtem Selfie. Alex Hanimann verfolgt in diesem Buch seine künstlerische Sicht auf die Beobachtung von Tieren hinein in die Automatik. Mit seiner umfassenden Bildersammlung ordnet er die Sichtweisen, denen Tiere in einem forschenden und schützenden Interesse ausgesetzt sind. Anders als den Wildhüter interessieren den Künstler aber auch die Stimmungen in den grüngrauen Welten und diejenigen Momente, in denen die Kamera versagt hat, indem sie nur noch einen flüchtigen Hinterlauf erfassen konnte. Fragmente sind ebenso spannend wie die gelungene Totale.Die Geschichte des Blicks ist ein komplexes Geschehen zwischen dem Motiv vor dem Automaten und den Subjekten des Sehens danach. Selbst wenn sie noch nachts aufgespürt werden, entziehen sich die Tiere unserem rasch identifizierenden Blick.…
