More About the Author
Product Description
Synopsis
Hannah Collins collects together, for the first time, wide-ranging work by the artist, photographer and filmmaker from the past 15 years. The book consists of photographs, film scripts, found family portraits and childhood drawings, and coincides with the opening of an exhibition of Collins' work at the Fundacion La Caixa in Madrid and Barcelona, which will then go on to tour Europe. Collins, who divides her time between Spain and London, is celebrated for her large-scale photography installations and films with such diverse subjects as the residents of a village in Central Russia, African immigrants in European cities and gypsies in a Barcelona barrio. The book includes both well known and never before seen pictures as well as the complete scripts for her film projects.The book is grouped by concept into five sections: 'Events and Conditions', 'Finding Transmitting Receiving', 'Scripts', 'Family and Evidence' and 'Pavilions', which both separate out Collins' themes (including the power of place and architecture to communicate historic events and social ideas) and allow the reader to find their own links between the images and ideas that she presents, and to forge their own meanings.

Wonderful book,
This review is from: Finding, Transmitting, Receiving (Hardcover)
This is a wonderful book that I would highly recommend. I believe Hannah Collins is working and exhibiting in Spain so we haven't seen much of her in this country. The book is very well put together, the images flow from full landscape images to detailed close ups that give the viewer a more complete experience of the spaces Collins turns her camera on. I would highly recommend this book.
