    Paperback. Condition: New. Hunting and Collecting offers an in-depth look into the poetic and conceptual world of Belgian artist Stief DeSmet, whose work explores the complex relationship between nature, culture, and human intervention. In his practice, DeSmet moves as "a collector" seamlessly between painting, sculpture, performance, and installation, creating visual narratives that oscillate between irony, nostalgia, and critical reflection.Through a series of striking works and thoughtful essays, Hunting and Collecting examines the artist's ongoing dialogue with the natural world - not as an untouched ideal, but as a space shaped and reshaped by human desire and imagination. DeSmet's art embodies the tension between the longing for a pure, utopian nature and the realities of contemporary, consumption-driven life.Richly illustrated and conceptually layered, this monograph offers a comprehensive insight into DeSmet's oeuvre, tracing his evolution from the hunter and urban observer to rural storyteller. With contributions by curators and art critics, Hunting and Collecting captures an artist whose work stands as both a critique and a celebration of humankind's enduring fascination with nature. Thoreau's Walden is continuous inspiration for the artist. He even built a replica of Thoreau's cabin in his artistic garden.…

    Paperback. Condition: New. All prints have value: instead of fussing over making the perfect gelatin silver print, for example, Bruno V. Roels realised that all printed versions of an image have value, and he decided to not show that one perfect print, but all of them, in one composition. Some of his compositions consist of hundreds variations of one single negative, all printed in the dark room. Photography is a mimetic art, it imitates life. But Roels pushes it further: when printing variants of one image; he creates a mimetic feedback loop. He uses the iconic image of a palm tree to prove his point. All palm trees look alike, and as a symbol the plants are highly recognisable. Because palm trees are so widely recognisable, he's free to deconstruct his own notions of photography, while trying to get away from the "tyranny of camera viewfinders and rectangular boxes of enlarging papers".

Because palm trees are so widely recognizable, he's free to deconstruct his own notions of photography, while trying to get away from the tyranny of camera viewfinders and rectangular boxes of enlarging papers. Introduction for the book written by Simon Baker. Text in English and Dutch. AUTHOR: Bruno Roels (01976) lives and works in Ghent, Belgium. Bruno divides his time between writing and photographing. He considers the act of printing (turning a photograph into a tangible object) as important as the act of photographing itself. He photographs almost nonstop, documenting his entire life, building a sizable archive. In his dark room he uses that archive to explore the analogue photographic process. Rather than trying to make 'the perfect gelatin silver print' he assumes that all prints are perfect and gives all variations equal attention. He's looking for poetry, and photographic truth, in sequences and fluctuations. Details in his photographs may become lead motives in bigger compositions, and obvious subject matter is reduced to abstract information through numerous reiterations. SELLING POINTS: . Contemporary photography resulting in unique prints . Analogue and dark room developing . Nostalgia and melancholy meet 325 colour illustrations A stunning photography series depicting nature by Bruno V. Roels. All negatives are developed and played with in the dark room where every print becomes a unique canvas. Text in English and Dutch. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. …

    Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. All prints have value: instead of fussing over making the perfect gelatin silver print, for example, Bruno V. Roels realised that all printed versions of an image have value, and he decided to not show that one perfect print, but all of them, in one composition. Some of his compositions consist of hundreds variations of one single negative, all printed in the dark room. Photography is a mimetic art, it imitates life. But Roels pushes it further: when printing variants of one image; he creates a mimetic feedback loop. He uses the iconic image of a palm tree to prove his point. All palm trees look alike, and as a symbol the plants are highly recognisable. Because palm trees are so widely recognizable, he's free to deconstruct his own notions of photography, while trying to get away from the tyranny of camera viewfinders and rectangular boxes of enlarging papers. Introduction for the book written by Simon Baker. Text in English and Dutch. AUTHOR: Bruno Roels (01976) lives and works in Ghent, Belgium. Bruno divides his time between writing and photographing. He considers the act of printing (turning a photograph into a tangible object) as important as the act of photographing itself. He photographs almost nonstop, documenting his entire life, building a sizable archive. In his dark room he uses that archive to explore the analogue photographic process. Rather than trying to make 'the perfect gelatin silver print' he assumes that all prints are perfect and gives all variations equal attention. He's looking for poetry, and photographic truth, in sequences and fluctuations. Details in his photographs may become lead motives in bigger compositions, and obvious subject matter is reduced to abstract information through numerous reiterations. SELLING POINTS: . Contemporary photography resulting in unique prints . Analogue and dark room developing .
