BURRI, René (Zurigo, 1933 - Zurigo, 2014)
Die Deutschen. Photographien 1957-1964
Testi e poesie di Hans Agnus Enzensberger in tedesco. 88 fotografie in bianco e nero di René Burri . 8vo (24,5 x 29). pp. 208. . Ottimo (Fine). . Prima edizione (First Edition). . Die Deutschen è un reportage che Burri realizzò tra il 1957 e il 1964 come membro della Magnum Photos, pubblicato prima in Svizzera e Francia, e successivamente in Germania, con testi e poesie di Hans Magnus Enzensberger. Si tratta di immagini quanto mai significative, che percorrono la vita quotidiana di una nazione divisa, ai tempi della guerra fredda. Si direbbe che l'intenzione di Burri è quella di cogliere esattamente il tempo, il momento: ragazzi che salutano un carrarmato americano, due persone cieche che procedono sul marciapiede, gli innamorati sull'autoscontro, due che mangiano il gelato, un fumatore per la strada e così via. Ma la costruzione nitida, l'attenta gestione del gioco della luce, la presenza, in definitiva, di una strutturalità calcolata esprime con chiarezza l'intenzione di realizzare precise icone di un tempo, di un momento storico che, per naturale rimando, fa rimbalzare il pensiero dello spettatore ad una attualità certo ancora fortemente problematica.

BURRI, René (Zurigo, 1933 - Zurigo, 2014)
René Burri Photographs
Text by Hans-Michael Koetzle. Edited in collaboration with Burri, each of 44 colour photographs and 378 black and white photographs is accompanied by a detailed caption . 4to. pp. 448. . Perfetto (Mint). . . . René Burri Photographs comprises the culmination of years of scholarly research by distinguished writer Hans Michael Koetzle into Burri's important contribution to reportage photography, resulting in an incisive introduction, a series of in-depth essays at the beginning of each chapter and in extended captions that accompany each image. The book is designed by prominent Swiss graphic designer Werner Jeker of ADN Design, Lausanne. In 21 thematically-organized chapters, we accompany Burri across Europe to the Middle East, Vietnam, Brazil, Cuba and beyond; we visit Picasso, Le Corbusier, Yves Klein and Giacometti in their studios; we witness political figures such as Che Guevara in repose, and Fidel Castro at the helm. A work of epic scope in its own right, this book is a magnificent tour de force. René Burri Photographs comprende la summa di anni di ricerche accademiche di Hans Michael Koetzle sull'importante contributo di René Burri alla fotografia di reportage, con una introduzione incisiva, una serie di saggi approfonditi all'inizio di ogni capitolo e didascalie estese che accompagnano ogni immagine. Il libro è stato progettato dall'eminente graphic designer svizzero Werner Jeker di ADN Design, Losanna. In 21 capitoli organizzati tematicamente, seguiamo Burri in Europa, Medio Oriente, Vietnam, Brasile, Cuba e oltre; visitiamo Picasso, Le Corbusier, Yves Klein e Giacometti nei loro studi; assistiamo alle decisioni di figure politiche come Che Guevara e Fidel Castro. Questo libro è un magnifico tour de force.

BURTIN, Delphine (1974)
Encouble
Fotografie a colori e in bianco e nero di Delphine Burtin. Testi in francese e inglese Esemplare 26/100. 4to (32x23 cm). pp. 50. . Ottimo (Fine). . Prima edizione di 100 esemplari numerati e firmati dall'Artista (First edition of 100 numbered and signed copies). . Duchamp's readymades meet Burroughs' cut-ups in Encouble. Merging photography with collage and construction, Burtin's art blurs the line between image and sculpture, between intention and, in the artist's phrase, "accident." Dynamic geometries, by turns as playful as Paul Klee and somber as Agnes Martin, gloss an illusion of order over images whose fluid forms continually invite and rebuff identification and interpretation. Some subjects are photographed as still lives, their status as objects&mdash;indeed, as shapes&mdash;undermined by deft choices of composition, angle, light. Others are intensely reworked&mdash;manually manipulated, photographed and rephotographed until the original object (if such a concept even applies here) is subsumed beneath layers of abstraction. The photographs become object and subject both: mysterious chromatic arrangements whose Benjaminian aura persists even as the they cohere and dissolve into and out of quotidian solidity, or familiar artifacts whose materiality becomes increasingly conjectural under what Duchamp might call retinal examination. Antiheroic in scale, semiotically monumental, and suffused with a wry wit both philosophical and visual in nature, these remarkable transubstantiatations audaciously efface the noumenal world while simultaneously adding to it. I readymade di Duchamp incontrano i cut-up di Burroughs in Encouble. Fondendo la fotografia con il collage e la costruzione, l'arte di Burtin confonde la linea tra immagine e scultura, tra intenzione e, nella'intenzione dell'artista, "incidente". Le geometrie dinamiche, giocose come quelle di Paul Klee e cupe come quelle di Agnes Martin, danno un'illusione di ordine alle immagini le cui forme fluide invitano e respingono continuamente l'identificazione e l'interpretazione. Alcuni soggetti sono fotografati come nature morte, il loro status di oggetti - anzi, di forme - minato da abili scelte di composizione, angolo, luce. Altri sono intensamente rielaborati, manipolati manualmente, fotografati e rifotografati fino a quando l'oggetto originale (se un tale concetto si applica qui) viene sussunto sotto strati di astrazione. Le fotografie diventano entrambe oggetto e soggetto: misteriosi arrangiamenti cromatici la cui aura benjaminiana persiste anche se si fondono e si dissolvono dentro e fuori la solidità quotidiana, o artefatti familiari la cui materialità diventa sempre più congetturale sotto quello che Duchamp potrebbe chiamare esame retinico. Antieroiche in scala, semioticamente monumentali, e soffuse di un'arguzia ironica di natura sia filosofica che visiva, queste notevoli transustanziazioni audacemente cancellano il mondo noumenale mentre simultaneamente lo aggiungono. The Paris Photo/Aperture Photobook Award 2013.
