Synopsis
Something the Swiss are not used to experiencing is having their everyday lives documented by an outsider. They are quite comfortable with the world view of Switzerland being the familiar images found on travel postcards of mountain panoramas, shimmering lakes, the iconic fondu pot, and edelweiss. In May 2017, fotostiftung Schweiz (Swiss foundation for Photography) took an unusual step and commissioned American photographer Shane Lavalette to follow in the footsteps of Theo frey, a leading figure in Swiss photojournalism, who eighty years earlier had been commissioned to photograph life in a dozen Swiss villages. Lavalettes job was to gather a new portrait of the same villages almost a century later. He did so in his vibrant, color images. from soft blades of bromegrass, red blooms of poppies, and gable rooftops to intimate portraits of the local families, he revealed a nuanced view of what the Swiss call home today. Lavalettes work has appear in the NY Times Magazine and The New Yorker, and exhibited at the High Museum of Art (Atlanta), MfA (Boston), and Aperture Gallery (new York), among others.

Hardcover. Condition: Sehr gut. Dust Jacket Condition: Sehr gut. 1. Auflage. W : 156 Seiten, 79 Abbildungen 27 × 32 cm - Im Mai 2017 suchte der Amerikaner Shane Lavalette im Auftrag der Fotostiftung Schweiz zwölf Gemeinden auf, um anhand dieser ein Land zu porträtieren. Er fotografierte in Carona, Gais, Rüderswil, Saignelégier, Saint-Saphorin, Sainte-Croix, Schwyz, Stammheim, Vicosoprano, Visperterminen, Wil und Zuoz und folgte somit prominenten Fussstapfen. Vor rund achtzig Jahren legte Theo Frey, der wie Paul Senn und Gotthard Schuh zu den Klassikern der Schweizer Reportagefotografie gehört und als Europas Pionier der Langzeitdokumentation gilt, diese Route fest. Dieser "feinsinnige Chronist dörflicher Realität" (NZZ 1997, Nachruf) fotografierte damals für die Landesausstellung 1939. Still (Noon) vereint nun die neuen mit den ursprünglichen Bildern und offenbart einen ungewohnten Blick auf eine Nation. Es ist ein Blick, der berührt. Seller Inventory # ABE-1726227341600
