Aperture 146: On Location III (Aperture Magazine) by: Aperture Foundation Inc. Staff
Softcover. NY, Aperture Foundation, 1997, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: None, Softcover, 80 pages. A large, beautifully designed photography publication with many full page photographs in black and white and color. Glossy wraps. The work presented in Aperture's third "On Location" issues reveals that we live in a constant state of transformation, that the naming of things does not make them any more tangible, that the "decisive moment" is over before it begins, and that the "fixative" nature of photography makes it marvelously complicit in its paradoxical relationship with the world.
