Michael Kenna
Spring Poplar Trees, Pavia, Italy - Forest, Black and White Landscape

2019

About the Item

Spring Poplar Trees by Michael Kenna depicts a forest scene. The barren white trees stand tall in rows, seemingly multiplying as they get further in the distance. Spring Poplar Trees by Michael Kenna is listed as an 8 x 8 inch gelatin silver print, available in an edition of 25. This photograph is mounted onto a 20 x 16 inch mat board, with a window overmat. This photograph is signed, editioned and dated by Michael Kenna on print margin. It is also signed, titled, editioned, dated and print date in pencil by Michael Kenna on mat verso. Michael Kenna's black and white photographs are powerful and alluring. His imagery transports you to iconic and placid landscapes where you can gaze in solitude. Because Kenna makes such long exposures, often minutes or sometimes hours long, the landscape presents itself as something that cannot be seen with the naked eye, abstracting reality. This is a trademark of his work for which he has become legendary. Michael Kenna's photographs are housed in over 100 museum and institution collections throughout the world, including the Amon Carter Museum of American Art, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Bibliothèque Nationale de France, George Eastman House, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Musée national d'Art modern, Paris, San Francisco Modern Art Museum, Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Photography, and the Victoria and Albert Museum, London. He has received several awards including an Honorary Master of Arts from Brooks Institute in Santa Barbara, and the Chevalier of the Order of Arts and Letters from the Ministry of Culture, France.
