Krátky popis
Asylum of the Birds is a new body of work by Roger Ballen, one of
the most original image-makers of our times. Ballen has always
sought to push the boundaries of photographic practice and has
created an aesthetic and artistic vision unlike any other
contemporary photographer. The images in Asylum of the Birds have
been photographed entirely within the confines of a house in a
Johannesburg suburb, the location of which remains a tightly
guarded secret. The inhabitants of the house, both people and
animals, and most notably the ever-present birds, are the cast who
perform within a sculptural and decorated theatrical interior that
Ballen creates and orchestrates. The resulting images are
painterly, complex and surreal. They are richly layered with
graffiti, drawings, animals and found objects. In a world where
photographers seek to avoid definition, and whose work is often
banal, Ballen is a true original who not only defies genres, but
has defined his own artistic space as well.
