这本设计精美的专著对一位备受好评的当代摄影师的作品进行了概述。
肯纳(Kenna)的照片通过其无声的戏剧性和吸引力吸引着观众:这位摄影师似乎对表现包围空间的无形线条很感兴趣,而不是准确地描绘一个地方,这种方式容易激发观众的想象力和遐想。
A beautifully designed monograph surveying the works of the highly acclaimed contemporary photographer.
Kenna’s photographs captivate viewers through their silent drama and magnetism: rather than being accurate descriptions of a place, the photographer seems interested in capturing the invisible lines which enclose space, and in so doing arousing a viewer’s imagination and reverie. Michael Kenna is an artist for whom the subject is above all the opportunity for a tremendous but constant variation in his view of the world.
Michael Kenna was born in England in 1953 but has been living in the United States for thirty years. Of the many showings of his works that have been held in public venues and private galleries, mention should be made particularly of those in museums in France, Japan and the United States, the latest being in the French National Library, Paris, in 2009.
