Internationally acclaimed American artist Tina Barney burst on the
scene in the early 1980s with her provocative yet intimate
photographs capturing the domestic lives and social rituals of the
elite. In choosing colour over black and white and producing
large-format prints, she broke the tradition of established
fine-art photography at the time. Her unstintingly honest portrayal
of her subjects, many of whom are family and friends, remains
completely original. Straddling the line between candid and
choreographed photography, between engagement and detachment, she
captures her subjects in a range of rarefied settings, both private
and public. Her iconic tableaux suggest rich narratives or, as she
has written, the synchronization of psychological, emotional, and
sociological plots that bind a family together. Long awaited, this
lavish survey is the most definitive book to date on Barney s work.
