More DescriptionThe only comprehensive publication devoted exclusively to "one of the quiet giants of post-conceptual photography" (The New York Times), this book celebrates Liz Deschenes's twenty-year career with immaculately produced

Since the mid-1990s her work has evolved as a stripping away of photography's inherent interference with its subjects. Making use of the medium's most fundamental aspects--paper, light, chemicals--she produces camera-less pieces that not only remind viewers of photography's essential goal of reflecting light and color but also expand its scope into the realm of sculpture.
