The introduction is a waste of time, and the book is almost entirely images -- and then. Finally, at the end, small excerpts telling us a little bit more about the festivals all over Europe that these masks and costumes come from, a little bit more about the historical tradition, and the materials, and what these images are celebrating. I wanted that information first, or interleaved or somehow not hidden, but I can see how some of the power of the images is in the sheet incongruity, the mystery of imagining running into one of these figures alone in a landscape. Very cool, and I find the enormous and ubiquitous bells totally fascinating. ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Each year, throughout Europe, from Scotland to Bulgaria, from Finland to Italy, from Portugal to Greece via France, Switzerland and Germany, people literally put themselves into the skin of the 'savage', in masquerades that stretch back centuries. By becoming a bear, a goat, a stag or a wild boar, a man of straw, a devil or a monster with jaws of steel, these people celebrate the cycle of life and of the seasons. Work on this project took photographer Charles Freger to eighteen European countries in search of the mythological figure of the Wild Man. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
