Saul Fletcher (INVENTORY PRESS)
Description:
A self-taught photographer from the northeastern coast of England, Berlin-based Saul Fletcher (born 1967) has been working for more than two decades to create images of fragmented bodies, found-object assemblages and (most famously) the artist’s own studio wall. Neither staged nor real, neither fast-moving nor static, neither intimate nor detached, Fletcher’s images create distinct ruptures in everyday temporalities. This substantial volume reproduces more than 300 photographs, alongside essays by Ralph Rugoff and Kirsty Bell that touch on the haunting feeling produced by Fletcher’s imagery.
Fletcher’s work has been exhibited at the Atlanta Contemporary Art Center, the Hessel Museum of Art in Annandale-on-Hudson, the Rose Art Museum at Brandeis University, Tate Modern in London and the Carnegie Museum of Art in Pittsburgh.
