Uta Barth In Between Places

Rising star Uta Barth is one of the most exciting & innovative artist/photographers in the world today--her enigmatic & beguiling images have again & again transfixed art audiences from London to Los Angeles. Barth's work draws its strength from its blurring of the familiar & strange, bringing the viewer to a liminal space between the two. It is in this place that Barth begins her investigation into the very nature of perception, where the epistemological importance of such formal qualities as lighting & composition becomes astoundingly evident. Uta Barth: In Between Places is the first comprehensive book on Barth's oeuvre, presenting a carefully selected survey of her works, & as such is a must-have for viewers, collectors & students attracted to contemporary art & photography. The poetic resonance, radical intelligence & sheer beauty of Barth's pictures are given perfect illustration in this book, designed with the artist herself. Uta Barth's work is represented in numerous public & private collections worldwide, including the Museum of Modern Art, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Guggenheim Museum, & the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York; the Tate Gallery, London; the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago; & the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles. She has had solo exhibitions in Los Angeles, New York, London, San Francisco, & Stockholm.Timothy Martin is the author of 'Uta Barth In Between Places', published 2000 under ISBN 9780935558371 and ISBN 0935558373.
