Barth's work draws its strength from its blurring of the familiar and strange, bringing the viewer to a liminal space between the two. It is in this space that Barth begins her investigation into the very nature of perception, where the epistemological importance of such formal qualities as lighting and composition becomes astoundingly evident. Uta Barth: In Between Places is the first comprehensive book on Barth's oeuvre, presenting a carefully selected survey of her works, and as such is a must-have for viewers, collectors, and students attracted to contemporary art and photography. The poetic resonance, radical intelligence, and sheer beauty of Barth's pictures are given perfect illustration in this book, designed with the artist herself.
