BOOK INFO Paper Over Board, 11 X 9 In. / 96 Pages / 45 ColorISBN 9781942084204 List Price: $45.00“...these fresh, layered and technically complex images examine the possibilities in the un-sensed and unimagined...”, - Artdaily, September 4, 2016“Kyne uses light and perspective to create a mysterious world that otherwise would go undiscovered.”, - Musee Magazine, November 8, 2016“...the photographs in A Crack in the World shift human vision into an extraordinary terrain, one where Kyne and her camera revel.”, - KQED Arts (NPR), November 16, 2016Photographs by Barbara Kyne Contributions by Susan Griffin A Crack In The World presents Barbara Kyne's photographs of the five acres which she and her partner share in Mariposa, California. Kyne photographs as a means understanding so-called reality, wondering what lies outside of the environment that she can detect with her own limited human biology. Ultimately, Kyne produces a photography of nature that does not rely on the nature genre, or even on the subject matter of nature for engagement or visual enjoyment, but instead examines the possibilities in the not-sensed and the imagined. A Crack In The World contains fresh and elegant, yet layered and technically complex photographs that inspire empathy for all beings, and the planet that sustains them. An accompanying essay by Susan Griffin examines the artistic and theoretical implications of this deceptively simple body of work.Barbara Kyne is an artist based in Oakland, California. Her work has been shown at SF Camerawork, Photo Center NW, the Trition Museum of Art, The Kala Institute, and the Bedford Gallery, and is featured in many contemporary photography books and publications.

It indicts an inhumane and broken California prison system that has changed little over two decades.

Oshagan has published three books of photography and has exhibited his artwork and public art internationally.

They are images of loss and survival, fragments and lives, architecture and skin, surfaces and invisible things, like radiation. Exposure is at the core of Slavik's project: exposure to and exposures made from radiation, to the sun, to light, to history, and exposures made from radiation, the sun, light, and history, including historical artifacts from the Peace Memorial Museum’s collection. After Hiroshima engages ethical seeing, visually registers warfare, and addresses the irreconcilable paradox of making barbarism visible as witness, artist, and as viewer.Featured in San Francisco Chronicle, Los Angeles Times, Foam and New York Times, and more!Essay by James Elkins
