About the Item

Max Steven Grossman is a keen observer of bookshelves, which he captures and memorializes in large-scale photography. An MFA graduate of New York University and the International Center for Photography, Grossman is known for his “Bookscapes” series, in which he photographs stacks of books in shops, libraries, and private collections and digitally stitches the images together to form composite shelves around subjects like fashion, architecture, music, or sports. The hyperreality of these compositions is enhanced by their scale, which can reach heights of more than eight feet. Grossman’s works respond to the impact of the digital era on both books and photography, while exploring notions of reality and fantasy and the constructed nature of knowledge.
