Tracing a career of more than thirty years, this celebration of the
prodigiously talented Dutch photographer includes vibrantly colored
portraiture, landscapes, still lifes, abstract compositions and
fashion editorials. From her early African-inspired work to her
more recent experiments in interventionist techniques, Viviane
Sassen has gained international acclaim for her striking, dynamic
images that explore a range of themes and subjects-from identity,
gender, and the body, to race, fashion, and the environment. This
retrospective book brings together both well- and lesser-known
works and includes pieces from her recent series, "Paint Studies,"
in which early photographs are reimagined with ink and painterly
marks, and "Venus and Mercury", a collection of exquisite
photomontages based on the history of the Palace of Versailles. An
introductory essay and interview with the artist combine with
additional illuminating texts to make this the definitive overview
of an important and ever-evolving photographer.
