Walls and Windows

Monica Bohm-Duchen

3/5 ( ratings)

The theme of Walls and Windows encompasses a wide range of subject matter: mannequins in shop windows, fragments of torn posters, shop fronts, urban building sites. Despite their diversity, the photographs in this collection display some of the central preoccupations of Dorothy Bohm's work: an acute sense of observation for the detail of everyday life; a fascination with surfaces and reflections, and an eye for painterly textures; a subtle, often witty exploration of spatial ambiguity; and the ability to capture the moment, to encapsulate in a single image the mood of a place.

Format: Hardcover

Publisher: Ben Uri Gallery & Museum

Release: May 01, 1998
