Description

Deana Lawson: An Aperture Monograph presents a unique vision in photography. Over the past decade, she has developed a distinctive language to capture identities through intimate portraiture and striking accounts of ceremonies and rituals. Using medium- and large-format cameras, Lawson creates highly structured scenes that showcase an exquisite range of color and attention to detail. The body is often central in her work, which invites comparison to the photography of Diane Arbus, Jeff Wall, and Carrie Mae Weems. Lawson seeks to portray the personal and powerful aspects of black life. This book features forty beautifully reproduced photographs, accompanied by an essay by acclaimed writer Zadie Smith and an expansive conversation with filmmaker Arthur Jafa. This monograph offers a rare insight into Lawson's creative process and artistic vision, making it a valuable addition to any photography collection or for those interested in contemporary art.
