Beschrijving

42 x 28.5 cm. Printed cardboard folder. With 40 coloured plates + Print – size 20 x 30 cm. [with margin 28 x 42 cm.] – One of 50 limited collector’s book and print set – both signed – this is number 31. – Series: Patrick Frey No. 169. – As a follow-up to her widely acclaimed book Ou Menya, Bieke Depoorter (member of Magnum Photos) traveled to the United States, spending the night at the homes of perfect strangers, whose paths she crossed upon her wanderings. However, as we leaf through the book, it would hardly cross our minds that these people ever had Bieke’s company. They seem utterly oblivious, about to call it a day, as if the photographer has managed to make herself unseen, leaving only her eye behind. In reality, she won their hearts by candidly admitting to her own vulnerability. In turn, they confided in her, and so we watch these fletting figures forever waving to us, signaling that they are still here, living their lives despite the strife and struggle. – Cardboard folder slightly damaged, otherwise a fine copy
