Dear list,
>From november 2 to december 31, 2005 Atelier pH7
presents
Francis Schanberger (USA)
"The Close-Up World of Dr. Frangst", cyanotypes.
Francis Scanberger states: My photographic working
method is a synthesis of past and present, memory and
imagination.... With the use of the historic process
of cyanotype, I acknowledge nineteenth century
naturalists John Herschel and Anna Atkins who used it
to record their notes or specimens of nature.... I
imagine an alter ego, a doppelganger who is a
scientist but in a very<BR>anachronistic way.... His
laboratory is nature and his body's senses are just
the instruments to<BR>divine its wonders. Through a
series of letters (done in cyanotype) to his
colleagues he articulates his methodology, areas of
interest and the subjectivity of his findings.
Photographs of himself and photograms of his
investigations allude to the methods of his
research....
In a series of 20 cyanotypes (4x5 inch & 8x10inch)
Francis shows a very convincing body of work using
simple natural elements and himself in the act of
listening to and discovering the secrets and marvels
of nature.
