PHOTOGRAPHS is the first book to encompass the complete body of work by American photographer Zoe Leonard. For over 20 years, she has traversed nature and culture, urban landscapes and museums, always searching for signs that speak to structures, natural and cultural conditions, contradictions, parallels, and the connections between them. Leonard’s photographs of anatomical wax figures, fashion shows, trees, and fences present scattered black-and-white figures that open up a visual field of thought and reveal within it our visible world—that is, the concrete, established structures that make up our reality. The political aspects of her work form the backdrop to her constant struggle with form, with imagery, and with the union of symbols and content. Zoe Leonard’s black-and-white photographs are like a blurred cartography of the human condition.
