Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. 'Portrait of a City' braids together two projects by artist Dean Sameshimazu verschenken (2020ongoing) and Still Life (202223)in a composite book-work which constitutes a poignant meditation on the city of Berlin and its changing cultural landscape.The images in Portrait of a City address both public and queer spaces through the lens of the everyday, bridging notions of community, connection, desire and consumption. While studying under Allan Sekula at CalArts in the early 90s, Sameshima photographed the exteriors of queer sex clubs and bathhouses around Silverlake, Los Angeles, as well as notorious cruising areas nearby. Decades later, in Still Life the artist depicts the waste and intimate detritus left inside Berlin's local Sex Kinos, spaces now also in jeopardy. While the subject matter may differ, zu verschenken nevertheless still concerns the intersection of public and private, and finds Sameshima cruising the quotidian, surveying a civic identity in flux.Additionally, the publication features a newly commissioned text by Berlin-based writer and programmer Lina Martin-Chan. Beyond tracing the genesis of each project and their place within Sameshimas broader oeuvre, in her text Martin-Chan also posits a reading of the two projects as gifts in the Freudian sense choosing between bodily pleasure and object love, and how we learn about exchange as infants.
