Description
"Evoking the strong connection between art and literature, [The Earth Will Come To Laugh And Feast] reveals the inevitability of suffering, and of human helplessness from pain." - Constanza Falco Raez, Flaunt Magazine "In his latest offering, the unnerving universe of Roger Ballen's photographs grows another dark layer through the words of Italian poet Gabriele Tinti." - Gregory Eddi Jones, LensCulture "The scenes and characters in The Earth Will Come to Laugh and Feast are shrouded with mystery and wonder. [The] scenes thrive under the assumption that they belong in a world unhindered by expectation." - Andy Dion, MUSÉE "Roger Ballen is one of the most important photographers of his generation. His work employs drawing, painting, collage and sculptural techniques to create enigmatic sets for his images." -- Staff, The Guardian "As you turn the pages of this book, you seem to have entered the house of the god of the dead himself and to pass from room to room in his dark palace, meeting on your way the irreducible pain of the world visiblexith wings prevented from beating by the barbed wire of our human curse." -- Staff, The Eye of Photography The Earth Will Come to Laugh and Feast is a poetic journey through a carefully curated selection of internationally revered artist, Roger Ballen's photographs. Italian poet, Gabriele Tinti, reflects on Ballen's images with original texts written in the form of elegies, prayers, and laments. The text is appears in both English and Italian. The book evokes the strong bond between art and literature, and of ekphrastic writing that evokes images by highlighting hidden relationships and implied mysteries. The result is a moving collection of poems and short stories revealing the profound state of existence and the fate of our torment, the inevitability of suffering, and of our helplessness from pain. As Tinti says "This partnership moves from the rubble, passes through cemeteries, sniffs out the signs of what has gone. Roger Ballen's photos, my words, are a kind of defense against the terrible power of death. They are an accumulation of enthusiasm, injuries, obsessions. They are effigies composed to disturb the reader, to ambush the thought, the things."
