Produktbeschreibung
A joyful overview of contemporary photography of birds, featuring the work of 50 internationally recognized photographers. Photographs of birds are found in every decade of photography's 200-year-old history. Today, more photographers than ever before have taken them as their subjects, inspired by our heightened understanding and appreciation of their complexity. Aviary unites the work of more than 50 internationally recognized photographers to explore our complex relationship with birds, questioning how we observe them and respond to their presence. Taking an eclectic curatorial approach, William A. Ewing and Danaé Panchaud weave together photographs from the fields of art, landscape, fashion, portraiture, ornithology and wildlife into six 'acts' that propose intriguing new dialogues and visual theatre between these different modes of photographic expression. Aviary features 200 photographs from leading image makers including Leila Jeffreys, Sarah Moon, Roger Ballen, Sarker Protick, Tim Flach, Viviane Sassen and Nadav Kander. Aviary is much more than simply a book for bird lovers, but an essential, visually led study of the relationship between humans and animals - a visual testament to the beauty, complexity and intrigue of the natural world.
