Between Seer and Seen: Celebrating the Artists of Santa Barbara County Book

About the Item

Between Seer and Seen: Celebrating the Artists of Santa Barbara County Book by Mark Robert Halper. Composed of 71 portraits and 15 still life images photographed from January to December or 2012, this collection of portraits provides an intimate view into the artist on their home ground. Captured in honest moments, Mr. Halper s visual insight offers the chance at a deeper understanding of the artistic temperament. In their transformation from the creators of art, to portrait subjects, the seers, who make the art and are the subjects of my portraiture, become the seen. The concept of seer and seen embodies the notion that the interpretation of art is largely about perspective. Barry Spacks, artist and the first Poet Laureate of Santa Barbara, wrote the introduction to this meditation on the visual artists of our time. This is a beautiful large hardcover coffee table book. About the Author For over two decades, Mark Robert Halper has photographed celebrities and captains of industry for clients that include advertising agencies, national magazines, and Fortune 500 companies. Randy Jackson, Lauren Hutton, David Boreanaz, Bill Gates, Gene Simmons, Tori Spelling, James Marsters, Ben Stein, Adrianne Palicki, Frank Gehry, Sumner Redstone, and Mr. T are just a few of the personalities that have been photographed for publication by Mr. Halper. In 2008, Mr. Halper created Halper Fine Art, which has become the portrait studio of choice for discerning families throughout the country. Already well known within the photographic community, 2009 s Sunlight and Water brought Mr. Halper s work into the public eye with feature articles in publications that included Santa Barbara Magazine, the Santa Barbara Independent, and the Santa Barbara News-Press. The 2013 releases of Between Seer and Seen and Legacy represent the continuing evolution of that artistry.
