Putting back the Wall

4.2/5 ( ratings)

This companion volume to the 2005 "Berlin in the Time of the Wall" presents Gossage's Berlin photographs from 1982-1989 revisited as memory. There are documentary photographs, which might promise clarity - yet deliver only mystery. And then there are the poetic photographs of John Gossage, which might promise invention and fiction - yet actually deliver truth. With every Gossage book there is an inevitable nod to the artistry of the Photobook. An exquisite cover fashioned from the remains of a deteriorating album sets the tone of the publication. Essays by Gerry Badger, Thomas Weski and John Gossage presented in the unconventional, yet masterful manner we have come to expect in a Gossage production. The 2007 volume will also be sold in a slip case with the 2005 "Berlin" edition. The Pond and Stadt de Schwarz two previous titles by Gossage are highlighted in the recently published History of the Photobook Vol. 2. .
