Sanna Kannisto, Act of Flying Portfolio 3 Framed C-Prints on Fujifilm Paper

About the Item

Sanna Kannisto (Finnish, b. 1974), "Act of Flying Portfolio", (3) c-prints on Fujifilm paper, each signed and numbered 4/25 verso. This is a lovely triptych showing a gloriously colored hummingbird in flight. Each print is framed under glass with a simple and crisp white wooden frame. Prints included in this portfolio: Untitled 9, from the series Act of Flying, 2006 Untitled 13, from the series Act of Flying, 2006 Untitled 23, from the series Act of Flying, 2006 Since 1997, Finnish rising star, Sanna Kannisto, has spent several months per year living alongside biologists in the rainforests of Latin America. Adopting elements of her companions’ scientific methods, she developed her own form of visual research, extending her depictions of flora and fauna beyond the confines of the natural sciences. Breaking away from the conventions of nature photography, which typically presents specimens in isolation, devoid of context, Kannisto’s work addresses the acts of staging and image-making. With her gentle humor, she recognizes and utilizes the constraints of science and art alike, investigating the concept of truth in photography to challenge how we view and “know” the natural world. This portfolio coincided with her solo exhibition at the Aperture Gallery and the Aperture publication of Kannisto’s first major monograph, Fieldwork. Dimensions: Each - 11"h x 14"w (c-print), 12"h x 15"w (frame) Condition: Good. Not examined out of frame. Ready to place. Provenance: A Private Collection: Amagansett, NY

    Huge sepia toned poster of the Eiffel Tower, looking up through the trees of the Champ de Mars, By Jon Arnold. Printed on Fujicolor Crystal Archive Paper by Fujifilm. Jon Arnold has been passionate about photography ever since he bought his first camera in a small shop in Wells, England, an Olympus OM-1 film camera, when he was 15. His passion for travel and landscape started much earlier in childhood during the annual family pilgrimages south to the Swiss and Austrian Alps. Following wise parental advise he pursued a degree in Architecture at Brighton but shortly after completing the BA section of the course was lured away on a trip to China to see the world beyond the safe boundaries of western Europe. On his return he took a short course in photography at the London College of Printing (known now as the University of the Arts London) before embarking on a career in travel photo...
