  • Selected reviews for Queen Ann. P.S. Belly cut off 01 Jun 2010

    5B4 Photography and Books

    "As with many contemporary books from The Netherlands, these are beautiful objects. The care and attentiveness to "the book" is felt but never trumps the content. In Queen Ann it includes a sealed glassine envelope of 4x6 inch snapshots. It isn't clear if this last element, the glassine, is meant to be torn open or whether the images are meant to be viewed through the translucent paper (the metaphoric haze of memory?). You decide. Maybe in that case, collectors should buy two." >>more

    "Al bladerend bekruipt je het ongemakkelijke gevoel met de verspilling van een kostbaar mensenleven te worden geconfronteerd. Het boek laat namelijk de constante wens naar een ander leven zien. Dit verlangen van Queen Ann om een ander te zijn, houdt aan tot bijna het einde van het boek." >>more

    "This is what makes a good photo book: A body of work that allows space for interpretation, that can live, no: that has to exist with uncertainty, with not everything being well-defined, a body of work that knows that a narrative that does not involve the viewer’s imagination is little more than a comic strip.'" >>more
