First edition of The Water People by Brian Griffin. First impression. Medium format hardback with compact disc in fine condition.
About
In 2005 Brian Griffin was invited by the Icelandic geothermal energy company, Reykjavik Energy, to undertake a commission. The original idea was simply to ârepresent waterâ and he was free to interpret it exactly as he saw fit.
The work combines artfully constructed portraits, utilising a specially-made screen to create a watery abstraction, together with landscapes inspired by the German artist Caspar David Freidriech. Griffinâs heavy use of symbolism, his fictional narratives and Noirish aesthetic runs counter to the objective, documentary approach that dominates much of contemporary art and corporate photography.
