"A Living Man Declared Dead and Other Chapters I - XVIII was produced over a four-year period 2008-11 during which the artist Taryn Simon travelled around the world researching and recording bloodlines and their related stories. The subjects Simon documents include victims of genocide in Bosnia test rabbits infected with a lethal disease in Australia the first woman to hijack an aircraft and the living dead in India. Her collection is at once cohesive and arbitrary mapping the relationships among chance blood and other components of fate. "Simon's presentation explores the struggle to determine codes and patterns embedded in the narratives she documents making them recognizable as variations versions renderings adaptations of archetypal episodes from the present past and future. In contrast to the methodical ordering of a bloodline the central elements of the stories - violence resilience corruption and survival - disorient the highly structured appearance of the work. A Living Man Declared Dead and Other Chapters highlights the space between text and image absence and presence and order and disorder" the publisher.

An American Index of the Hidden and Unfamiliar

2007407079GÃƒÂ¶ttingen: Steidl 2007. A near-fine copy with a few small marks on covers and very pale age-toning to sheet edges. Folio 13 x 10 inches. 152 pages. 57 color illustrations. Brown cloth with inset black cloth title panel on front cover. Without jacket as issued. First edition now somewhat scarce. Published to accompany the exhibition at the Whitney Museum of American Art in March 2007. "Taryn Simon's An American Index of the Hidden and Unfamiliar reveals objects sites and spaces that are integral to America's foundation mythology or daily functioning but which remain inaccessible or unknown to a public audience. To make the more than 60 large-format photographs often required protracted negotiations before Simon was granted access to the sites. When circumstances permitted she photographed with a large-format camera and careful lighting emphatically not following the tradition of the journalistic snapshot. The photographs include radioactive containers in a storage facility for nuclear waste; the recreational facility of a high-security prison; the headquarters of the Ku Klux Klan with its Wizards Night Hawks and Kleagles; a Scientology seminar room; MOUT a facade city in Kentucky built as a training ground for urban warfare; the sealed-off halls of the CIA headquarters; a high-security research institute studying animal epidemics; and an operating room in which a Palestinian woman had her hymen and thus her virginity restored. Each image is accompanied by a brief text written by the artist that precisely explains what is seen and why it is hidden or off-limits. Although An American Index of the Hidden and Unfamiliar forces us to confront the darker side of democratic society it also conveys the fascination that attends the exploration of forbidden territories" the publisher. It was reprinted in 2013 by Hatje Cantz and that edition is now also out of print. Steidl hardcover books
