{"product_id":"deana-lawson-deana-lawson-9781683952282","title":"Deana Lawson: An Aperture Monograph (1st Ed., 1st Printing)","description":"Deana Lawson is one of the most intriguing photographers of her generation. Over the last ten years, she has created a visionary language to describe identities through intimate portraiture and striking accounts of ceremonies and rituals. Using medium- and large-format cameras, Lawson works with models she meets in the United States and on travels in the Caribbean and Africa to construct arresting, highly structured, and deliberately theatrical scenes animated by an exquisite range of color and attention to surprising details: bedding and furniture in domestic interiors or lush plants in Edenic gardens. The body--often nude--is central. Throughout her work, which invites comparison to the photography of Diane Arbus, Jeff Wall, and Carrie Mae Weems, Lawson seeks to portray the personal and the powerful in black life. \u003ci\u003eDeana Lawson: An Aperture Monograph\u003c\/i\u003e features forty beautifully reproduced photographs, an essay by the acclaimed writer Zadie Smith, and an expansive conversation with the filmmaker Arthur Jafa.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Deana Lawson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1683952286\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781683952282\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Aperture Direct\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/25\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 14.00h x 11.90w x 0.70d","brand":"Deana Lawson","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43990923870463,"sku":"9781683952282","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_13978b09-4e48-4811-8670-d78059f50db5.jpg?v=1683307448","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/deana-lawson-deana-lawson-9781683952282","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
