Synopsis
Well-known for creating lyrically concise images of her family, Annelies Strba has always known how to use photography to transform reality into a dense and dazzling alternate universe. In her new work she takes her tried approach one step further. Using a digital camera, Strba creates stills that she then colors with the aid of a computer, leaving behind the trappings of naturalism and realism to invent images of a perplexingly intense visual wonderland. Candy-colored flowers, cities in delicate hues of sepia, and portraits of young women reminiscent of Seurat and Bonnard fill these photographs through radiating smudges, iridescent pixels, and lurid and lyrical colors. Rather than speak the cool visual language of a technophile New Economy that has of late lost its shine, Strba uses digital technology to summon imagery that surmounts its clinical origins. With it she charts the territory that lies in between painting and photography, in all of its razzle-dazzle of scintillating colors and exploding shapes.

Hardcover. Condition: Sehr gut. Dust Jacket Condition: Sehr gut. 1. Auflage. Z : 144 Seiten/Pages, 85pp colour photographs, 27 x 42 cm, Leinen/Cloth - Die für ihre poetisch prägnanten Familienbilder berühmt gewordene Annelies Strba verstand es schon immer, Wirklichkeit mittels der Fotografie in ein dichtes und verwirrendes Gegenuniversum zu verwandeln. In ihren neuesten Arbeiten geht sie einen Schritt weiter: Sie benutzt die Videokamera zum Herstellen von Stills, die sie digital koloriert, und läßt dabei den naturalistischen und realistischen Zierat hinter sich, um Bilder eines verblüffend starken visuellen Wunderlands zu erfinden. Bonbonfarbene Blumen, delikat Sepiafarben getönte Städte, Porträts junger Frauen, die an Seurat und Bonnard erinnern. Strahlenförmig leuchtende Flecken, irisierende Pixel, geisterhafte und lyrische Farben: Strba erzeugt mit Hilfe der Digitaltechnik eine Bildhaftigkeit, die die kühle und technokratische Bildsprache einer technophilen New Economy, plötzlich gar nicht mehr so neu und aufregend, noch übertrifft. Der Bereich zwischen Malerei und Fotografie - das Durcheinander sprühender Farben und explodierende Formen - wird von Strba durch Digitalisierung grafisch dargestellt.
