Ottima scelta di foto, perfetta l'idea dell'ordinamento cronologico per decadi, utili i testi di commento del fotografo e sempre ironiche le sue didascalie. ( ) I was first introduced to Jeanloup Sieff's work when I was researching Yves Saint Laurent, and his crucially poised portrait of Saint Laurent remains on of my favourite photographs of all time, so I felt like it was time to explore Sieff's work further. I ordered this book in expected to get the major retrospective of his work, but instead I got an exhibition catalogue for a show of his work put on by the Musée D'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris (presumably). I can't really tell definitively if it's the only host museum/gallery, since the entire thing is in French and I can't be bothered to attempt to decipher the bibliographic references. The selection of work was a little bit random from my perspective (unknowning of the unifying theme or flow of hte show, if it ever existed), but I still quite enjoyed perusing the collection. It is largely comprised of female nudes (captioned often simply as "Paris") and landscapes from Death Vallery, interspersed with mummies from Palermo and some editorial fashion work. In retrospecta few key theme emerge from the collection for me, focusing on visual narratives of death, physical landscapes (land and flesh alike), and inevitably time and it ravages (or lack there of), but I prefer to enjoy some of the images more simply on their own. Saint Laurent's nude remains a standout among the panoply of female flesh (expected and boring), but the textures and sheer scale of the Death Valley series are also rather stunning. Sieff's self portrait for his 40th(?) birthday was also memorable, because it revealed a whimsical self-view of his work as a recorder of the world - and vetrays a humour that is rarely evident in the remainder of his "serious" photography work. Much more in this artist to explore, I am sure, it's just a matter of getting hold of the material! Being a collection of photographs taken by a noted fashion photographer, with minimal memoirs attached. Thankfully, fashion photographs do nor predominate; also present are moody landscapes, for which his eye is very good, portraits, nudes, and lots of studies of shadow and light, the lastmost uninteresting except perhaps to other photographers. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
"I have been searching for time past all my life." --Jeanloup Sieff In this unique monograph, Jeanloup Sieff (1933-2000) retraces in words and images the course of 40 years of photographs, encounters, and memories. Divided into four chapters, from the 50s to the 90s, the book brings together the major photographs of a creator who left his imprint on a generation with prolific work in the fields of fashion, landscape, advertising, and portrait photography. Sieff's art testifies to his tireless quest to capture the fleeting beauty of "temps perdu," or "time which cannot recur."
