M. LAFONTAINE, B. (EDIT. BARDE - Babylon Babies

Title: Babylon Babies
Description: Hatje Cantz, 2003. Hardcover. Pp: 248. Amid her current explorations of multilayered topics such as identity, the city, cultural spaces in urban areas, and youth culture, Belgian artist Marie-Jo Lafontaine presents her newest series, Babylon Babies. Comprised of large-format portrait photographs of teenagers superimposed on brightly colored monochromatic backgrounds, Babylon Babies performs an iconography of youth that goes beyond the usual clichas, confronting the viewer with independent young people whose photographic representations refuse any context and are therefore open for projection. In her multicultural cast of head shots, Lafontaine goes far beyond the United Colors of Benetton, presenting a familiar, beautiful array of youths, but never on the suspicious level of the ber youth. All 2000 copies of this trade edition are signed by the artist. This is nr. 1240.Like new. ISBN: 9783775791199. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.
