Description

In the persona of Andre S. Solidor, veteran photographer Elliott Erwitt plunges deeply into the kookier excesses of contemporary photography. Connotation, denotation, "relevance," Andre S. Solidor has covered all the bases. Solidor's "best masterpiece to date" features an "exuberantly eclectic" selection of topics-smoking fish heads, pneumatic mannequins in incongruous poses, not to mention some "up-close and personal" shots of Solidor himself. Plus for all you postmodernist groupies out there, there's context and commentary galore. Did we mention the gratuitous nudity? Text in English, German, French, Spanish and Italian SELLING POINTS: A satirical spoof of contemporary art photography The perfect gift for all bewildered by art that means too much and gives too little ILLUSTRATIONS 70 colour & duotone photographs
