Sharon Lockhart – Teatro Amazonas –

“… The most ambitious publication on the artist to date, this book examines Lockhart’s photographs and films from the early 1990s to the present.
Its focus is four new series of photographs and a film, entitled Teatro Amazonas, that Lockhart shot in the Amazon region of Brazil. Exhibiting the tension between the drive to survey, document, or classify and the drive to look closely at a human subject, both the new photographs and the film reveal Lockhart’s complex relationship to the traditions of ethnography, filmic and photographic documentary, and conceptual art. …”
