Bird – Andrew Zuckerman
Like last years brilliant Wisdom, Bird is the new beautiful new book by classy US photographer Andrew Zuckerman.
The birds, from the intimacy of the very small to the majesty of the very large, acquire a transcendental dignity, each one becoming a god in its own universe. The powerful white light transfers its own intensity to the birds and transforms them into mythical objects of paradise, newly resplendent in all their colours. Zuckerman knows very well the power of that light. As with his previous books, he is able to present the usual in the most unusual way by aiming at the essence, rather than the appearance, of the subject?
Once again he has created a masterpiece, an unforgettable document of those beautiful creatures who fly away to elude our gaze.’ Massimo Vignelli
Containing more than 160 photographs of nearly 75 different bird species from Swallows to endangered Penguins, each bird is depicted with rare sensitivity, insight, humour, and wonder.
