Retrospective

Slater Bradley

Composed of photographs taken between 1997 and 2003, Slater Bradley's "don't let me disappear" takes Holden Caulfield's admonition as its title in a compendium that is part travelogue and part personal photo album. In these color images, Bradley isolates the small events and intimate moments that punctuate daily life. Prefaced by a W.H. Auden poem that reminds us that suffering occurs "while someone else is eating or opening a window," this book is at once darkly romantic and emotionally evocative--and a reminder that the incidental is often the most meaningful.

Don't Let Me Disappear

Essayists Amada Cruz, Elizabeth A. T. Smith, and Amelia Jones offer keen insight and observations from several distinct vantage points, demonstrating that Sherman's work is a lens through which to view contemporary art and its ongoing concern with the profound issues of the structures of the self.
