As New in publisher's original packaging. Candida Hofer's rooms are densely packed with the freight of every person who exhaled in its spaces before she arrived with her view camera and her sense of gravity, history, and keen awareness of the sites of intellectual discovery. Whether the spaces are ornate libraries or architectural wonders, the photographs stop time, creating a sense of living mortuaries. The spaces are ornate and breathing. The oppressive orderliness of the images suggests the layers of knowledge that history and time confer. There is a grandness to the work and a poignancy. At first, the photographs appear as documents, upon closer examination, they reveal their artifice, through highly controlled lighting and a depth of field that is startling and impossible. From the publisher: "Candida Höfer, born in 1944, documents public buildings and urban environments. An early Becher student, Höfer depicts them without their visitors, thus capturing the intensity and intimacy of human occupation by the very absence of people. This monograph is the first comprehensive survey of her work to date." Signed by Author.

Published on the occasion of the 2007-2008 exhibition Candida Höfer: Weimarer Räume at the Neues Museum, Weimar and Stiftung Schloss und Park, Benrath. As New in publisher's original packaging. From the publisher: "In the 18th century, Weimar, which in Renaissance and Baroque times had already been host to illustrious guests such as Lucas Cranach and Bach, emerged as the definitive destination for the great and famous. Duchess Anna Amalia established her renowned library and literary circles featured the very best minds of the day, laying the foundations for the myth that surrounds the city to this day. Her son, Duke Carl August, persuaded Herder, Goethe, and Schiller to join his court, making Weimer the absolute focus of German intellectual life, the 'city of poets and thinkers'. It is a reputation Weimar continued to nurture through the 20th century to the present day. As part of her major project on libraries, in 2004 Candida Höfer.first photographed the Anna Amalia Library, which only a few months later fell victim to a fire. In summer 2006, on behalf of the Weimar Klassik Stiftung, she scouted for further locations in Weimar. Once again, she focused on interiors with a great past -- this time primarily with a neoclassicist background: Goethe's home on Frauenplan, the Residence Palace and Belvedere Castle, Wittumspalais, the theaters in Kochberg and Bad Lauchstädt, and the German National Theater. The special aura of the city was to the benefit of Candida Höfer's photographic style. We can truly sense the spirit of the Enlightenment in her strictly composed images of bright halls, sets of rooms and museum interiors, all bereft of human life." Signed by Author.

New (book, slipcase and print are all in flawless condition). From the introduction by Michael Lentz: "[Berges'] interest focuses firmly on rooms and houses that have been abandoned by their erstwhile inhabitants or users.[in] the ghost villages between Cologne and Aachen -- dwellings and detached homes that were left empty as the excavators in the open-cast lignite mines closed in on them.He has dedicated [this] volume to one of those abandoned villages, Etzweiler. The barren relics attesting to a former human presence stand for past lives lived, speaking their own utterly minimalist language: the naked walls in rooms, faded flowery wallpaper, dusted built-in cupboards, grass that is starting to grow between the slabs of asbestos cement."
