Silence Tapa dura - 2000

Información de la editorial

This volume is the first book-length presentation of Hans Neleman's highly acclaimed, mystery-laden still lifes. It's a breathtaking collection of photo-collages -- visual fireworks, full of mystery, poetry and the music of silence.

The photographs selected include both early personal images and his award-winning professional work. His considerable talent is characterized by his ability to translate visual poetry and capture it on film. In his photographic still lifes he goes to work with the precision of an archeologist photographing discreet moments. Neleman records things, yet his photographs are more than mere records of reality -- they are vivid images, replete with ecological, religious and symbolical elements. Neleman presents photographs of a world full of references to picasso, Arp, Duchamp and Ernst and based on the premise that "you don't make art, you find it".
