Add to basketGhosts; Jane Tuckerman; introduction by James Dickey, Pond Press, Boston, 2005. Presentation copy: to Maria Jane. From the blurb Ghosts is a wonderous look at our relationship to death. In her quest, Tuckerman has travelled to India, Mexico, Brazil and everywhere the spirit demons relentlessly snap at our souls. Along the way, Ghosts explores half memories, night shadows, and ancestral myths in a style that encompasses literal, mystical, and metaphorical elements. Ghosts is sumptuously printed in tritone, with 87 black-and-white infrared photographs, fully capturing Tuckerman s surreal and painterly style. Invoking visitations, possessions, curses, incantations, and celebrations, these images hauntingly describe the fear of the Grim Reaper as it perpetuates the ritualization of death. Jane Tuckerman has been a photographer and educator for 35 years. Her interest in death rituals began with an assignment to photograph in Varanasi, India in 1985, when she was head of the photography program at Harvard University. Now teaching at The Art Institute of Boston/Lesley University, Tuckerman s photographs are in major collections around the world, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. This large format book, unpaginated, measuring 254mm X 302mm is in fine condition, in a fine dust jacket that is in a protective mylar wrap. This large volume may require additional postage.
