Subject

This book of over 40 portraits share a common denominator: the presentation of individuality in the context of the subject's naked existence. Their 'being there' constitutes a document on the 'other', a mirror of the spectator's own existential uncertainties. Subject takes us on a journey into ourselves through our reflection in the 'other'. The works of 24 artists display a prevalence for photography, but also include works of sculpture, installation and painting, and together posit a very clear question: are we capable of looking at the 'other' to see our own nakedness?Featuring works of: Richard Avedon, Stephen Balkenhol, Jorge Bayo, Ricky Davila, Rineke Dijkstra, Roland Fischer, Till Freiwald, Pere Formiguera, Carmela Garcia, Pierre Gonnord, Felix Gonzalez-Torres, Stefan Hablutzel, Marie-Jo Lafontaine, Gilda Mantilla, Robert Mapplethorpe, JesA's Mico, Pedro Mora, Berhard Prinz, Humberto Rivas, Daniel Rozin, Thomas Ruff, Do-ho Suh, Fiona Tan and Urraco.
