Thomas Hirschhorn: Jumbo Spoons and Big Cake--The Art Institute of Chicago

Flugplatz Welt/World Airport

Kenneth Josephson has been called "a photograher's photographer" since his late 1960s arrival at the forefront of conceptual photography. His work is inspired by a philosophical inquiry into photography's place within artistic expression, and consequently his photographs often take as their subject the medium itself. Perhaps best known for his pictures within pictures -- an outstretched arm holding a photograph of a ship over the distant ocean horizon -- Josephson has created a fascinating body of work through his innovative handling of perspective and scale and his combination of reality and reproduction. He has brought his highly original sensibility to different genres, from documenting street life in India to nude portraiture, to, most recently, large-format landscapes of England and France. Accompanying a major retrospective exhibition at The Art Institute of Chicago, this catalogue will span his entire career and include some 30 works never before published, an interview with the artist, a complete chronology, and two essays. In its scope and currency, this comprehensive monograph is the definitive record of Josephson's career.
