In "Scotlandfuturebog," photographers Nicholas Kahn and Richard Selesnick construct a strange world that they describe as being of "infinite promise that cannot possibly be described or communicated except by direct experience." The characters we meet are bogdwellers, inhabitants of a planet emptied by an apocalyptic event. Left to perform obscure ceremonies in an intriguing but uninviting terrain, the bogdwellers exist in a historical vacuum. This is a first-edition slip-cased book, signed and numbered by the artists.
Nicholas Kahn and Richard Selesnick have been collaborating for more than a decade. They have exhibited worldwide and their work is held in galleries, museums and private collections.
Scotlandfuturebog features a short story by Ben Marcus whose second novel, "Notable American Women," was published in 2002 by Vintage.

Review:
"It has often been seen that truth is stranger than fiction, for Kahn and Selesnick, when the two get mixed. . ." -- Miles Unger, The New York Times

"Their photographs of assemblages of people in 'apocalyptic' situations are both strange and beautiful, making no sense, and yet maintaining something of a narrative quality nonetheless. Be sure to check out this bizarre and lovely book." -- Jay Gardner -- Picture Magazine

"The volume--which includes a short story by Ben Marcus, and Kahn and Selesnick's own essay, both of which offer information, tongue-in-cheek, on the origins of the bogdwellers--is a stylishly packaged combination of social science, cleverly mocked, and the absurd." -- Art on Paper

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: New. Signed by the Photographers slight bump to one corner.\n\nalthough sign this does not come in the slip case the numbered copies did.\n\nScotland Future Bog Published by Aperture Lavishly printed and well presented in Red Cloth with illustrated Dust Wrap In an imagined world, photographers Nicholas Kahn and Richard Selesnick construct a strange and beautiful environment that they describe as being of infinite promise that cannot possibly be described or communicated except by direct experience. The characters we meet are bogdwellers, sole inhabitants of a planet emptied by an apocalyptic event. Left to perform obscure ceremonies in a terrain that is as intriguing as it is uninviting, the bogdwellers exist in a historical vacuum. Scotlandfuturebog skews our sense of photographic truth as it explores the nexus between discovered and invented history. Nicholas Kahn and Richard Selesnick, born in New York City and London, respectively, have been collaborating for more than a decade. They have exhibited internationally, in such galleries as Monique Knowlton, New York, Pepper Gallery, Boston, and The Royal Photographic Society, Bath, England. Their work is held in the collections of The National Portrait Gallery, Smithsonian Institute, and the Philadelphia Museum of Art, as well as many private collections. ISBN 0-89381-935-2.
