"While the book doesn't offer a simple salve - it shouldn't - it's a refreshing and much-needed conversation." --Jon Feinstein, Humble Arts Foundation "Sasha Wolf has produced a book that's as fascinating as it is instructive." --Vince Aletti, photograph, "While the book doesn't offer a simple salve - it shouldn't - it's a refreshing and much-needed conversation." --Jon Feinstein, Humble Arts Foundation "Sasha Wolf has produced a book that's as fascinating as it is instructive." --Vince Aletti, Photograph Newsletter
Synopsis
How does a photographic project or series evolve? How important are "style" and "genre"? What comes first--the photographs or a concept? PhotoWork is a collection of interviews by forty photographers about their approach to making photographs and, more importantly, a sustained body of work. Curator and lecturer Sasha Wolf was inspired to seek out and assemble responses to these questions after hearing from countless young photographers about how they often feel adrift in their own practice, wondering if they are doing it the "right" way. The responses, from both established and newly emerging photographers, reveal there is no single path. Their advice is wildly divergent, generous, and delightful: Justine Kurland discusses the importance of allowing a narrative to unravel; Doug DuBois reflects on the process of growing into one's own work; Dawoud Bey evokes musicians such as Miles Davis as his inspiration for never wanting to become "my own oldies show." The book is structured through a Proust-like questionnaire, in which individuals are each asked the same set of questions, creating a typology of responses that allows for an intriguing compare and contrast. Including Robert Adams, Dawoud Bey, Alejandro Cartagena, Elinor Carucci, John Chiara, Kelli Connell, Lois Conner, Matthew Connors, Si'n Davey, Doug DuBois, John Edmonds, LaToya Ruby Frazier, Paul Graham, Katy Grannan, Gregory Halpern, Curran Hatleberg, Todd Hido, Rinko Kawauchi, Peter Kayafas, Justine Kurland, Gillian Laub, John Lehr, Dana Lixenberg, Andrew Moore, Abelardo Morell, Zora Murff, Catherine Opie, Ed Panar, Matthew Pillsbury, Kristine Potter, Gus Powell, Richard Renaldi, Sasha Rudensky, Lise Sarfati, Bryan Schutmaat, Manjari Sharma, Dayanita Singh, Tiffany Smith, Alec Soth, Mark Steinmetz, and Vanessa Winship, PhotoWork is a collection of interviews by forty photographers about their approach to making photographs and, more importantly, a sustained body of work.
