Ross Bleckner: Page Three
Hardcover | 36.4 x 1.8 x 25 cm | 124 pp
Twin Palms | 1998 | 9780944092590
95 sheet-fed gravure plates
Contains sexually explicit images
Ross Bleckner’s deeply personal camera work travels over the intimate contours of a lover’s body and the pages of his daily newspaper. The enigmatic and absurd landslide of images that inundate our daily lives falls across the pages of this book and is mounted like so many strange butterflies on every page. Perhaps the images are a cumulative autobiography - an effort by the artist to suggest that all we reach out to and all we touch are the mirror that becomes us.
Ross Bleckner is principally known as a painter whose work often touches on human vulnerability, evoking both the psychological struggles of the mind and the viruses that attack the physical form. He started his practice in the 1980s, when New York was in the grip of the Aids epidemic.
