Along with her expansive use of the photographic medium, these concerns make Lake an exemplary model for contemporary artists. Combining a deep knowledge of photographic conventions with strong personal convictions, she produces work that both inspires and provokes thought. \u003ci\u003eBeauty at a Proper Distance\/In Song\u003c\/i\u003e (2001-2), for example, challenges notions of beauty and the aging body in a society that glorifies youth. Lake installed light boxes in public places depicting highly saturated close-up images of her face. In \u003ci\u003ePerforming Haute Couture\u003c\/i\u003e (2014), she modeled high fashion designed for much younger models to celebrate her maturity and authority. In \u003ci\u003eReduced Performing\u003c\/i\u003e (2008) she utilized the most sophisticated scanning technology available to scan the entire length of her body. The questions Lake raises are as relevant now, in the age of social media, as ever before.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Suzy Lake\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3958292828\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783958292826\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Steidl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/27\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 228\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.88lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 12.10h x 10.00w x 1.10d","brand":"Suzy Lake","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48446444830975,"sku":"9783958292826","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_656a70dd-219c-49e7-b678-ac87bf07251e.jpg?v=1777224677","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/suzy-lake-suzy-lake-9783958292826","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
