This is the second monograph, surveying work from 1994 to 1998, by the American artist Ann Mandelbaum. She continues to reinvent the classic genres of still life and landscape, emphasizing the body and organic form. The new images elevate the familiarity with skin; and its folds, wrinkles and protrusions to abstract and surprising levels. Tongues spring rudely to life or sit against one another like stacked pebbles. Chests become fields of barbed wire. The results are disturbing and alienating in nature, yet demand an awareness of physical self.

This elegant little book presents Margaret Bourke-White's brilliant photographic sequence of parachutes being tested by employees of the Irving Air Chute Company in Buffalo, in the 1930s. With 20 duotone plates.
