Author: CHRISTOPHER WILLIAMS Title: Angola to Vietnam
Description: Imschoot, 1989. Ed./Druk: 1e druk. Softcover. Pp: 80. Artist's book based on the original portfolio of 27 photographic prints. The subject of each photograph appears to be a flower, but is actually installation views of glass replicas of each flower, taken in the Harvard Botanical Museum's Ware Collection of Blaschka Glass Models. In each case, the flowers were chosen from countries in which political disappearances had been reported in the year 1985. By rearranging them according to country and violence, rather than by the method of scientific classification used by the institution, the book subtly but powerfully reveals the biases inherent in institutional and archival classification systems.
