Product Description
Review
"His photographs transforms flowers and plants into something remarkably unexpected---- shapes that dazzle and confound in equal measure." - House & Garden"
Product Description
Christopher Beane's extraordinary work moves beyond the cliches of flower photography and has reinvigorated the genre with a different kind of intensity and vision, making flower images new again. Avoiding the hackneyed and sentimental, Beane's photographs have earned him comparisons to Robert Mapplethorpe, Georgia O'Keefe, Edward Weston, Brice Marden, and Richard Serra. In colour and black-and-white, against a range of backdrops (marbleized paper, opalescent glass), Beane photographs irises, rununculi, milkweed, morning glory, tulips, orchids, and more. There are dark, moody shots of flowers whose glory is nearly faded and brighter-than-sunshine images of young blossoms. Seed pods burst open revealing their fluffy contents, withered leaves curl protectively around berries, and frilly petals unfurl like a ball gown. "Flower" is a dazzling and sensuous celebration of colour and form, from one of today's most exciting artists.
