Summary: To comprehend the mythic changes in the passage from youth to old age, we gather songs of transformation from Ovid’s epic poem, The Metamorphoses. We call upon the archetypes, debate proportion and beauty with the Greeks and review the Romans’ conception of authority and immortality. Challenging Michelangelo’s heroic intensity, we consider divinity as expressed through the body. Finally, we conjure a future where we align with
sacred geometries and connect to the infinite.

In this project, we reconfigure history to express the time and timelessness we feel in our bones. We recapture the power of age that is lost in our youth obsessed culture. This is our personal Stonehenge, Acropolis and Sistine Chapel.

The Indie Photobook Library is TWO!

This past weekend, the Indie Photobook Library celebrated its 2nd Anniversary. Thank you to all the photographers/artists/bookmakers that have made the collection what it is today! I’d also like to thank Advisory Board members Darius Himes, Andy Adams, Shane Lavalette, and Gabe Reed and all the venues that have welcomed the iPL. In the last two years, the collection has grown to almost 1000 books. The iPL continues to promote and showcase the books in the collection through international pop-up and feature-length exhibitions, articles, conferences, guest lectures, and also preserves them as a non-circulating public library. Having a specific collection dedicated to this contemporary movement in publishing allows for the development of future discourse on trends in self-publishing, the ability to reflect on and compare books in the collection, and for scholarly research to be conducted years, decades, and centuries to come. I am looking forward to continuing the iPL mission.

Cheers,
Larissa Leclair
Founder, Indie Photobook Library
