{"product_id":"9780893816261","title":"Dispossession","description":" Dispossession. Photographs by Lynn Stern. Essay by Donald Kuspit. Starkness, unswerving focus, and cryptic intensity form the essence of Lynn Stern's work. While initially shocking, her images of skulls and death masks are mysteriously inviting, due to their vibrant luminosity and Stern's powerful identification with her subject. 35 blackandwhite tritone photographs, 10 X 12, 64 pages. Hardcover. \u003cp\u003e \"Lynn Stern's images are not about what they are of. Deeply sensual yet rigorously formal, her \"Whiteness\" work investigates the relationship in photography between literal and metaphorical content.\" \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e A.D. Coleman \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \"The history of art is perfectly charnel, dense as a graveyard, with images that enjoin the viewer to remember the imminence of death: vanitas, danses macabres, gisants, spectral emanations, calaveras. Stern's work, with its creepy delicacy, inserts itself into this bold tradition.\" \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e The Art Book \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aperture Foundation","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47012809834736,"sku":"9780893816261","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780893816261_p0.jpg?v=1763850135","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780893816261","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
