Product info

<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>This book marks the 40th anniversary of Roland Barthes' renowned work Camera Lucida (La Chambre claire) in 2020.</b></p> <p>Artist Odette England invited more than 200 photography-based artists, writers, critics, curators, and historians from around the world to contribute an image or text that reflects on Barthes' unpublished snapshot of his mother at age five. This snapshot is known as the <i>Winter Garden photograph</i>. Barthes discusses it at length in Camera Lucida, but never reproduces it. It is one of the most famous unseen photographs in the world.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>England has allowed <i>Keeper of the Hearth</i> to be bigger than her or a single photograph. In this book something otherworldly is embodied in theory and ideology. The pictures are beautiful and the essays revealed, but what shines through is a commitment to community, discourse, and surrender. This form of surrender is to others' ideas and others' instincts, which allows a bigger picture of camaraderie and a new form of self described memorial to those we love to emerge.</p> <p><b>-- Efrem Zelony-Mindell, <i>In the In-Between</i></b></p><br><br><p>Keeper of the Hearth attests to the continuing resonance of an image none of us have seen and that may not even exist, and to the singular spell of Barthes's odd, mischievous, melancholy take on photography and its seemingly intrinsic relationship to death.</p> <p><b>--Sean O'Hagan, <i>The Guardian</i></b></p><br><br><p>Like Barthes' language in <i>Camera Lucida</i>, England's <i>Keeper of the Hearth</i> is a constellation of gaps and ambiguities that manifest in our endless search for a definitive balance between the two.</p> <p><b>-- Cat Lachowskyj, <i>The British Journal of Photography</i></b></p><br>
