Fauna

Fauna

Pere Formiguera
0/5 ( ratings)
. As David Levi Strauss writes in The Book of 101 Books, "The Catalan artist Joan Fontcuberta has been constructing elaborate historical fictions out of the excess credibility of photographs for some time, effectively calling the conventions of photographic believability into question in the process. Fauna is perhaps the most fully realized of these fictions . [This collaborative project] is presented as the recovered archive of a controversial German naturalist named Dr. Peter Ameisenhaufen , who travels around the world discovering new species of fantastic creatures and recording them with the help of his photographer Hans von Kubert . In addition to evidential photographs of the weirdly appropriate hybrid animals, the archive also includes field notes , maps, audio recordings, scientific papers, and other documents.".
