Synopsis
A collection of psychologically charged depictions of the natural world represents 15 years of the artist's career, the entire series gathered together in one volume for the very first time. Simen Johan summons a metaphorically dense world into being where human fantasy and nature collides. Simen Johan originally drew attention in the early 1990s by merging digital manipulation with traditional darkroom techniques. Since then, he has been developing a hybrid form of image-making that integrates candidly photographed animals and landscapes with a compositional structuring and conceptual intent typically associated with painting and cinema. As Lyle Rexer pointed out in a 2016 issue of Photograph Magazine: Simen Johan is 'one of the first and best artists to incorporate digital image processing into this creative practice.' In a catalogue essay, David E. Little, Executive Director of the International Center of Photography, proclaims 'Johan's photographs underscore the importance of the creative act in photography, not as an act in itself, but as a means towards a conceptual and narrative goal.' Johan travels near and far to photograph his source material, and can find inspiration anywhere from the local zoo to the jungles of Costa Rica, or the lava fields of Iceland. He then spends countless hours assembling his images captured in these far-flung locations into a unifying whole. The result is an often-unsettling sense of placelessness. We see in this collection images of pigeons flocking toward light like moths (or angels); stripes on a dazzle of Grevy's zebras mesh with the fronds of geographically incongruent palms; two hapless caribou glazed with ice, frozen in a scene that is both tranquil and brutal. Each image reveals poetic and often unexpected relationships that speak to the illusory and multifaceted nature of existence. Tensions between what is revealed and what is concealed, what is alluring and what is menacing, what is fact and what is fiction, both shape and unsettle the scenes. Simen Johan is a 15-year-long project, started in 2005; it is gathered in book form here in its entirety for the very first time., Simen Johan--an award-winning, internationally exhibiting artist, and a pioneer in digital image-making is publishing his third monograph. Representing 15 years of the artist's career, and gathered here for the very first time in this deluxe volume, are his celebrated uncanny animal portraits, otherworldly landscapes, and psychologically-charged narrative natural scenes. With a unique creative process that combines candid wildlife photography with digital manipulation, cinematic drama and a painterly approach, Simen Johan summons a metaphorically dense world into being where human fantasy and nature collide. In a catalogue essay, David E. Little, Executive Director of the International Center of Photography, writes: "Johan's photographs underscore the importance of the creative act in photography, not as an act in itself, but as a means towards a conceptual and narrative goal." Traveling both near and far to photograph his source material, Johan can find inspiration anywhere from the local zoo to the jungles of Costa Rica, or the lava fields of Iceland. He then spends countless hours assembling his images captured in these far-flung locations into a unifying whole. The result is an often-unsettling sense of placelessness. We see in this collection images of pigeons flocking toward light like moths (or angels); stripes on a dazzle of Grévy's zebras mesh with the fronds of geographically incongruent palms; two hapless caribou glazed with ice, frozen in a scene that is both tranquil and brutal. Each image reveals poetic and often unexpected relationships that speak to the illusory and multifaceted nature of existence. Tensions between what is revealed and what is concealed, what is alluring and what is menacing, what is fact and what is fiction, both shape and unsettle the scenes. Johan presents us with paradoxical photographic worlds that echo uncanny versions of our own.

      HIGHLY recommend this excellent bookseller! ALWAYS a pleasure to receive their expertly packed books that generally look new (read their very accurate listings to avoid the odd ex-library book). Their lovely books are always a great value even with shipping charges and you will always KNOW the TRUE condition of the books upfront (generally new or like new), which will arrive undamaged! There are never any unhappy surprises with this great seller!

      Plum Circle is one of my absolute favorite eBay sellers! I have made dozens of purchases from them over the years! Their listings are very accurate -- most books are new or remainders and the odd ex-library book is clearly identified so there are never any unhappy surprises! Most books appear new and they are always SO well packed and protected! Even though they don't offer shipping discounts their prices are super competitive and you will ALWAYS get lovely quality books that arrive undamaged!
