Ever since his student days, Cy Twombly has
concerned himself with photography, but only in
recent years he has turned it into a unique artistic
concept and an aesthetic sensation. Twombly s
photographic pieces are documents of a fascinatingly
enigmatic and personal poetry. His studios in
Lexington and Gaeta, details of his own sculptures
and collected sculptural items, landscape motifs, fruits
and flowers appear in a mysteriously transformed
manner on these delicate sheets. Printed in
matte colors on matte paper using a dry-print
process that imbues them with velvet and almost
grainy hue, the images are vaguely reminiscent of
the pictorialist tradition in fin de siècle photography.
In their minimalist way, however, generating
aesthetic visions by the simplest of means, they are
utterly contemporary.
Photographs 1980 2007 presents Twombly s photographic
works of the last twenty-five years full of
surprises and breathtaking beauty.
