About the Item

Chronotopia 2, 2003 C-print Measures: 24 × 30 in 61 × 76.2 cm Edition 5/10. Simon Norfolk is a well known British landscape photographer who has regularly worked with the Agan Khan foundation for Culture. This photography comes from a series of photographs taken in Afghanistan around 2000 illustrating and testifying the damages and desolation in result of the war against the Talibans. "Landscape photographer Simon Norfolk has documented some of the world’s most brutal war zones and refugee crises. He interrogates the experience of war through the landscape, or in staged group portraits seemingly far removed from action. His lush and color-saturated images of bombed-out ruins, abandoned military hardware, and ancient battlefields dating back to the Roman Empire create dense layers of meaning and pathos without the typical trauma of images associated with war. He has also photographed supercomputers used to design military systems and nuclear missile test launches" (Artsy). Hand-signed by artist, titled, and numbered by the artist on the reverse. Certificate of authenticity included (issued by the artist). Private Collection, Basel. Acquired from the above by the present owner.

Early Brian McKee Original Photography "Castle View", Afghanistan, 2002 Ed. 1/5
Located in North Miami, FL
This early original photography by the late Brian McKee (1977-2018) of a war-torn Castle in Northern Afghanistan. This is a chromogenic print mounted on aluminum - Series 1 of 5, from 2002. Provenance: This amazing piece was purchased at Art Basel (Switzerland) in 2002 from Galerie Ernst Hilger (Vienna). Paperwork to be provided at time of purchase. THIS ITEM IS LOCATED AND WILL SHIP FROM OUR MIAMI, FLORIDA SHOWROOM. Biography Brian McKee was born in 1977 in Excelsior Springs, Missouri and attended the Interlochen Arts Academy and Bard College. While at Bard College he studied photography with Stephen Shore, Larry Fink and Barbara Ess as well as writing under John Ashbery whose assistant he was for more than three years. For five years he was the assistant to the photographer Lynn Davis. He lived and worked in New York City/USA, Vienna/Austria and Istanbul/Turkey. Brian McKee called himself “a visual historian” who ventured to “convey a unique and important view of select aspects of World History” with his photographs. “Within architecture and landscapes I find my true subject, the detritus of civilization, and seek to explore the way we define and relate to its existence. Although creating precisely composed and executed images I carefully chose projects that have a conceptual meaning and importance beyond their visual interest or beauty.” For the past 15 years McKee had focused on examining and visualizing a body of work that explored both the current and past social and political atmospheres of countries around the world. Photographing with an 8x10 inch Deardorff plate camera he composed poetic images, which conveyed a complex untold narrative embedded in an immaculate concept, which didn’t only exist for aesthetic purposes. He was fond of ”the idea that houses, buildings, towns and cities provide us with a true understanding of the cultures that inhabited those spaces. At the same time they are a reflection of the social, political and personal atmosphere that created them.” His signature subject of the rise and fall began 1999 when he photographed Soviet military...
