Online - Photographie - Moderne Photographie – Eines von 30 Exemplaren. - Hg. Edition Schellmann, München/New York, anlässlich der 50. Biennale Venedig (2003). - Die vorliegende Arbeit knüpft an Grahams langjährige Auseinandersetzung mit dem Verhalten von Menschen in öffentlichen und halböffentlichen Räumen an, die sein photographisches, skulpturales und theoretisches Werk seit den 1960er Jahren durchzieht. Betrachter und Betrachtete tauschen unmerklich die Rollen: Die Familie beobachtet die Tiere, der Betrachter des Bildes beobachtet die Familie. Diese stille Reflexion über Blick, Kontrolle und soziale Normierung ist charakteristisch für Grahams konzeptuellen Ansatz.

Online - Modern Photography – C-Print mounted on cardboard. Signed and numbered on the reverse on a label. - In very good condition overall. An excellent, high-contrast and grainy print. - One of 30 copies. - Published by Edition Schellmann, Munich/New York, for the 50th Venice Biennale (2003). - This work builds on Graham's long-standing exploration of human behaviour in public and semi-public spaces, a theme that has run through his photographic, sculptural and theoretical work since the 1960s. Viewer and viewed imperceptibly swap roles: the family observes the animals, the viewer of the image observes the family. This quiet reflection on gaze, control and social normalisation is characteristic of Graham's conceptual approach.
