The beauty and tenderness of withering and decay In this gorgeous
book, Brigitte Lustenberger explores the passing of time, memory
and the fragility of life. She transforms flowers dried on glass
used for photographic slides into delicate photographs. Celebrating
the beauty of decay, Lustenberger leads us into a fascinating world
of withered flowers. Her images reveal the incredible details of
nature’s ingenious constructions. The artist manages to combine
both the fleetingness of a drawing made with light and the
preservation of a photograph. Four essays by renowned curators
provide insight into the artist’s process-oriented working
method, the interweaving of analogue and digital technology in her
practice, and contextualize An Apparition of Memory within Western
and Japanese photographic and art history.
