"This book represents a moment in a life and oeuvre constantly in flux, always branching out and converging, following a course, but at times deliberately diverging, because there is time, or time can be found--to breathe, to walk, to pause, to move on,… to circle. There is poetry in Amar Kanwar's words and lyricism in his films--both method and metaphor alike by which life's distillation and dissipation become comprehensible and deeper knowledge can be gained. Space can be grasped through time, time through poetry. What is at stake is always the life of the individual, the rules of society, power, abuse, violence, the power to enlighten and the courage to change." --Urs Stahel. Kanwar is a documentary filmmaker and video installation artist, his early work having been substantially influenced by the violent events of 1984 in Delhi. In German and English. Accompanies an exhibition at the Fotomuseum Winterthur. Brown boards with black lettering. No bumping. No inscriptions. Illustrated in colour. Firm binding.
