Book Description What do you see when you look at water? American artist Roni Horn suggests 95 answers, 95 directions, 95 possibilities. Here is water as it continuously reshapes itself. Here is a dictionary because water is the ultimate lexicon, because Horn's work is always about completeness. This incredible collection of digitally manipulated photographic images are from Horn's long-term project documenting the River Thames. With this project, she has now completed her study of the river, and this luxurious volume is a perfect final statement of the work. Oversized, linen-bound, and slipcased, this book has stochastic screening on extremely heavy paper for the best possible reproduction quality.

customer review: Roni Horn is a photographer whose primary expression is the photographic book, as opposed to the common practice of periodically slapping together a collection of greatest hits. Roni Horn approaches photography sequentially and conceptually, and she apparently conceives much of her photographic work for the book first, and the exhibition second.
Lovely. What an intelligence.
