Aperture 145

Aperture Magazine, issue #145, Fall 1996.
Ten Portfolios and Essays on Constantin Brancusi, Kiki Smith, Petah Coyne, Louise Lawler, Edvard Munch, Pablo Picasso, Sigmar Polke, Gerhard Richter, Richard Pousette-Dart, Chris Marker, and Wim Wenders.

Surface and Illusions presents ten portfolios of photographic work by artists we do not necessarily think of as photographers. Drawing primarily on the disciplines of painting, sculpture, and film, this issue seeks to explore the intersection of two-dimensional and three-dimensional representation--the link between the built and the imaged--as well as the ways in which time, memory, and narrative function between films and still photographs.
