"In a remote landscape near Bordeaux, Mona Kuhn owns a little house: simple, bare and even without electricity. The photographer travels here each year to entertain family and friends as they drop by. "Bordeaux Series" contains portraits of these people dear to Kuhn made over the last four years, as well as landscape photographs. Kuhn photographs her subjects in the same room with a red fabric backdrop and a chair, so that the nudity of each sitter is the only indication of his or her idiosyncrasies. A sequel to Kuhn's "Native", it is a sensual exploration of the contemporary nude". A brand new, pristine example of the photographer's fifth book BOLDLY SIGNED "Mona Kuhn" in black ink across the entire title page. 3-86930-308-5 Inventory Number: 024327
