Oblong quarto paperback in slipcase, 205pp., colour and monochrome illustrations. Fine in slightly scuffed slipcase. Postage quoted is for a standard format octavo book. Final charges may vary depending on size and weight. Ingeborg Tyssen was one of the great Australian photographers of her generation and generally overlooked by critics during her lifetime in favour of her male counterparts. This book spans 20 years of creative output from 1974-94, and shows Tyssen to be a highly original observer of modern life. Shaune Lakin of Monash Art Gallery remarked that "Tyssen's story is one of the great stories of Australian photography. Her arrival in Australia at the age of 12 as an immigrant from her native Holland and her struggle with displacement and new language and landscape is one that many Australians are familiar with. Being one of Australia's first street photographers, she made a significant contribution to the history of Australian photography. Her experience of migration gave Tyssen a rare ability to observe people in their environment. Her earliest photographs, taken in the city streets, fun parks, and suburbs of 1970s were acute depictions of the urban isolation she felt in her new homeland. Her experience and pictures certainly remain relevant to contemporary Australia." Tyssen studied photography under John Williams, who became her husband. She was a co-founder of the Photographers Gallery in South Yarra in 1975.
