Francesca Woodman: Works from the Sammlung Verbund

"Untitled," Providence Rhode Island (1976), is reproduced from Francesca Woodman: Works from the Sammlung Verbund, an exquisite exhibition catalog and the most comprehensive monograph yet published on Woodman to date. Essayist Elisabeth Bronfen writes, "The tableaux vivants Woodman repeatedly puts on display in her artistic practice… need not only be read as anticipating and rehearsing death. They can also be seen to celebrate a precarious recovery of aesthetic presence by capturing a scene in which the body is staged simultaneously as an image and as the producer of that image."
