| book description |

Elaborate Photographic Compositions Since the late 1970s, the Canadian artist Jeff Wall has contributed significantly to establishing photography as an autonomous medium, and is regarded as one of the key vanguards of â€œstaged photographyâ€. Referring to his approach as â€œnear documentaryâ€, his images resemble documentary photographs in style and manner, but instead are meticulously composed, multilayered compositions. Synthesizing photography with elements from other art forms such as painting, cinema, and literatureâ€”in a complex mode that he calls â€œcinematographyâ€â€”his deeply intellectual work stages fictional realities, memories and past experiences in an elaborate process. Featuring more than fifty works, this catalogue accompanying the large-scale exhibition at the Fondation Beyeler juxtaposes Wallâ€™s iconic backlit color transparencies with his more recent black and white photographs and color C-prints, revealing a variety of references in content and form.
