Description: New York, Steidldangin, 2008. Hardcover. A white cloth casebound book with the title in gray debossed text down the spine. Unpaginated. Profusely illustrated with a majority color images. "Liquid Light 1983-2003 is a single-volume monograph assembled from the personal work of Fabien Baron. Spanning twenty years and two continents, the collection draws from over 2,000 photographs taken on the coasts of Eastern America, Western Europe, and the Mediterranean. As the title suggests, the book chronicles Baron's transformation of concrete, geographical sites into abstract tableaux. Utilizing long exposure for each image, Baron reveals the most essential aspect of his subject matter - light. Returning year after year to each location, Baron achieves a meditative rhythm that is readily apparent when the work is viewed sequentially. While each image varies infinitely in detai - weather, hour, and light change, as do lenses and film stock - they all maintain a fundamental composition: water and sky bisected by horizon. VG: Exlibrary book. Stamp on front free end page. Stamp, sticker, and due date card on back pasted end page. Stamp on top text block.
