Text in English and Polish.ISBN: 9780692327609.Collection from San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.The origin of this book grew out of a short visit to Poland to see the Auschwitz Camp sites in 2004. What was to be a one time visit to Poland became a series of visits exploring the nature of memory, history and bigotry. This book covers the period of 2004 to 2011, during which time the author photographed in Poland and the Czech Republic.From the author: "The sixty-one photographs in this book were made over a seven-year period from 2004-2011. Over that stretch of time I began to write down my thoughts about the photographs; sometimes what I was thinking about as I was taking the picture, sometimes later that night as I sat and thought about the day, sometimes weeks or months later in the darkroom as the image came up in the developer. The thoughts appeared as spontaneously as the impulse to make the photo; when I first saw what was in front of me, what was being offered. Although there is History here this isn't a History book. Likewise for "memoir", this isn't a Memoir. It's a book of pictures. Pictures and thoughts. It's about "Identity". It's about "Memory". At it's best, if the reader/viewer allows it to intrude and ask questions it may challenge some preconceptions at the expense of reinforcing them at the same time. I hope this dynamic produces a tension that questions all of us who are Captured In Memory".
