The stunning images in this collection by Argentinian photographer Guillermo Srodek-Hart tell captivating stories of the country's rural commercial establishments. Located in the rural areas outside of bustling Buenos Aires, the commercial establishments-butcheries, bakeries, bars, repair shops, garages, dry cleaners-depicted in this collection by photographer Guillermo Srodek-Hart appear steeped in history, and are packed with details dripping with color. These photographs, shot with a large-format camera, are imbued with a narrative power not unlike an Edward Hopper painting. Details such as bottles, hides, groceries and hubcaps are heightened by Srodek-Hart's masterful technique and composition. Throughout the collection hangs an air of abandonment, of time passing, or perhaps stopping. Whether or not that is true, Srodek-Hart has memorialized a culture worlds apart from the city that lies a short distance away.
Rezension:
Es gibt sie noch, die guten Dinge. (:::) Es war einmal - auch so könnte dieses Buch beginnen. Gut, dass es wenigstens die verzaubernden Fotos gibt. Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung
