Lucinda Devlin: Frames of Reference by Susanne Breidenbach Hardcover Book

Description: Lucinda Devlin: Frames of Reference by Susanne Breidenbach, Gabriele Conrath-Scholl, Lucinda Devlin Frames of Reference offers the first opportunity to view all of Lucinda Devlins photographic series in a single volume. The nine thematic series reveal a remarkably consistent approach from the 1970s to the present; from her early work as an exponent of New Color photography to her focus on a wide variety of interiors, before expanding her scope in the 2000s to include exterior environments and landscapes. No people appear in these images, yet their influence is everywhere.Following the example of Walker Evans, Devlin is guided by specific phenomena of American culture and its developments, which she observes with a critical eye—from the early series "Pleasure Ground," offering glimpses into spaces of entertainment and diversion (discos, strip bars, fantasy hotels), to later images of treatment rooms, operating theaters, autopsy rooms, and execution chambers in American prisons in "The Omega Suites." In more recent works that are more subtle yet no less nuanced, Devlin examines the cultivation and management of landscapes in Indiana, the Midwest, the Carolinas and Arizona, as well as the changes in Utahs salt flats and Great Salt Lake. An enduring source of contemplation is the vast expanses of Lake Huron, to which she dedicated "Lake Pictures" between 2010 and 2019."Devlins approach to photography involves a sharp eye for perspective and lines that lead the eye where she wants it to go, bringing her viewers attention to humorous or baffling subtleties." - Rebecca RaffertyCo-published with Photographische Sammlung/SK Stiftung Kultur, Cologne FORMAT Hardcover CONDITION Brand New Author Biography Lucinda Devlin, born in Ann Arbor, Michigan, in 1947, grew up surrounded by the Great Lakes and rural landscapes.
