| Publisher Description: In the summer 2010 issue of Aperture, David Frankel discusses the multimedia work of the Openended Group, three artists who utilize the latest technologies to expand the possibilities of image making; celebrated sculptor Robert Gober selects and introduces nine rarely seen Diane Arbus images; writer Mark Alice Durant explores the reciprocal relationship between photography and performance by examining a selection of contemporary photographers and their historical antecedents; Susan Morgan discusses Kelly Poe's project For the Wild, a dynamic engagement of photography, politics and correspondence with imprisoned environmental activists; and writer Aaron Schuman interviews acclaimed British photographer Paul Graham on the occasion of Graham's major European survey. Other features include a portfolio of new work made in northwestern Italy by famed Czech photographer Josef Koudelka; an interview with Richard Learoyd, a rising photographer producing elegant, large-scale portraits with a camera obscura; work by Stephen Dupont, a recent W. Eugene Smith Grant recipient, made in collaboration with Marines stationed in one of Afghanistan's most volatile areas; writer Michael Lesy, author of Wisconsin Death Trip, revisiting his days spent collecting snapshots discarded by a processing facility; and filmmaker John Waters riffing on a Lee Friedlander image. Exhibition and book reviews include Lesley A. Martin on The Provoke Era: Postwar Japanese Photography, Vicki Goldberg on Fellini: La Grande Parade, Andy Grundberg on Robert Bergman: Portraits, 1986-95 and Vince Aletti on recent fashion photography publications. |
