Richard Misrach: The Mysterious Opacity of Other Beings

From 2011 through 2014, photographer Richard Misrach shot dozens of leisurely swimmers from his balcony in a Honolulu hotel. Collected together in The Mysterious Opacity of Other Beings, Aperture's new, deluxe monograph, these, quiet, color-saturated photographs convey more than any other work we can think of the unique feeling of floating, outside of time, in the water, under the sun, alone, at peace, on vacation. Each spread of this oversized 17x13-inch book presents a full bleed image of the scoped back view, alongside a detail of the human figure or figures. Somehow this unique design conveys even more the "suspension and wonder" described by John Guida and Sara Barrett in The New York Times. To see a selection of images from the book, continue to our blog.
