About the Item

This is an unframed photographic print. Francois' Animalia series is described as “a photographic menagerie of startling, sensitive portraits.” The series started when the artist saw a giraffe poking its head over a fence against a bright white sky. Francois often takes her pictures about 5 – 6 feet away, with a wide-angle lens from below, and uses and develops real film before printing editions of the work. The animals are often in sanctuaries and rehabilitation centers, reversing the traditional wildlife portrait narrative. Nine holds a Masters of Fine Art degree from the University of Texas at Austin. Her work has been represented internationally in publications such as Communication Arts, Foto&Video (Moscow) and The British Journal of Photography. Her photographs are part of numerous public and private collections including the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, the Wittliff Gallery of Southwestern & Mexican Photography, the New Orleans Museum of Art, and the University of Texas at Dallas collection. Nine currently lives in Austin, Texas where she has taught photography at Texas State University, the University of Texas at Austin and Austin Community College.

  • Step by Step - Off-Print # 2 - 1979 - Minimalist Black & White Photography
    By Jörg Krichbaum
    Located in Brussels, BE
    Artwork sold in perfect condition - Off-Print # 2 (Munich 1979) from the portfolio Step by Step (Coffret Prestige # 1) This image was captured on film (1979) The selected negative was printed on Baryta paper by the author and then limited digital reproduction printed later (2021) on fine art paper Photo Rag Baryta 310 gsm for highest age resistance using pigment inks which are known for their longevity. Steps, a ladder, almost all from the bottom to the top, to show you are climbing. Or ? It's up to everyone to decide, to think about which metaphor they prefer. But it's still a personal matter. For some it will be happy, easy or joyful, while for others, Jörg says in a text written in 1982, the image will refer to a painful memory, a painful sensation, an ordeal. Because this image is "us", it is only us but it is all of us. Limited Edition 1/5 Unframed Please note this will include any custom sizes requested German photographer Jörg Krichbaum...

  • Statuary - Off-Print # 3 - 1978 - Minimalist Black & White Photography
    By Jörg Krichbaum
    Located in Brussels, BE
    Artwork sold in perfect condition - Off-Print # 3 (Munich 1978) from the portfolio Statuary (Coffret Prestige # 7) This image was captured on film (1978) The selected negative was printed on Baryta paper by the author and then limited digital reproduction printed later (2021) on fine art paper Photo Rag Baryta 310 gsm for highest age resistance using pigment inks which are known for their longevity. It is undoubtedly in this portfolio that the artist's will is best seen. The dialogues and interactions are so powerful and numerous that the cacophony awaits us. To attempt an iconoclastic reference, it would be Shawn Levy's funny and crazy film, "Night at the Museum", rather than the wise alignment of a statuary at the British Museum. Whether they are warriors, scholars or politicians, these statuettes speak for themselves, speak to each other, and speak to us about ourselves: the polyphony is complete.

  • Au chic Parisien - Off-Print # 1 - 1981 - Minimalist Black & White Photography
    By Jörg Krichbaum
    Located in Brussels, BE
    Artwork sold in perfect condition - Off-Print # 1 from the portfolio Au Chic Parisien (Coffret Prestige # 8 on 1stdibs) This image was captured on film (1981) The selected negative was printed on Baryta paper by the author and then limited digital reproduction printed later (2021) on fine art paper Photo Rag Baryta 310 gsm for highest age resistance using pigment inks which are known for their longevity. In a text devoted to him, evoking these seemingly silent photos of Krichbaum, one critic used the term "din" to define the flow of thoughts and feelings that escaped from it. In this too quick glimpse of Paris, the artist creates a dialogue between the white glass balls of a hotel chandelier with two ostrich eggs in the window of a fashionable decorator, while the fashion models, scattered at will shops and seasons, endless stories are exchanged.
