Very Good with no dust jacket. 1932598073. Light shelfwear.; 33.5 x 28.5cm; 66 pages; Exhibition Gagosian Gallery-October 14-November 27, 2004. "...the most heavy-duty pieces are Vera Lutter's monumental studies of Battersea power station. Lutter uses a converted shipping container as a camera obscura: alchemical it may be, but you'd have difficulty slipping one of those into your handbag." Alfred Hickling, 25 Jan 2007, The GuardianGagosian Gallery is pleased to announce an exhibition of Vera Lutter's monumental camera obscura photographs. The exhibition features the highly anticipated Battersea Power Station project as well as significant projects completed over the past eight years...Battersea Power Station, designed by Giles Gilbert Scott, is a remarkable relic of the Industrial Age, having provided London with electricity for nearly 50 years until its closure in 1982. Since then, this historical landmark has stood dormant for over two decades, until now, as construction is currently underway to redevelop the site into an entertainment and leisure destination. Fascinated by the future duality of the Power Station, Lutter has selected the site, a remnant of the past, before its impending transformation. Using room-sized structures, Lutter often inhabits the camera during the long exposures, which can last hours, days or even weeks. The camera obscura works with the premise that when light passes through a small hole into a darkened chamber it produces an inverted image on the opposite wall and projects Lutter's inverted subjects onto photographic paper, allowing each photograph to be developed as a unique negative. The ethereal images that result from this process allow an extraordinary interpretation of the industrial landscape for the viewer. Vera Lutter's photographs have been exhibited at the Kunsthaus Graz, Austria; the Kunsthalle, Basel; Dia Art Foundation, New York; Museum of Modern Art, New York; Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, among other locations here and abroad."
