It seems a paradox: of all things it is a medium such as photography, one that operates on the surface, with which Gundula Schulze el Dowy penetrates into the depths of space. She enters the inner spaces and learns her lessons from the stones of ancient Egypt. And she forges an astonishing link between past and present by embracing an original concept of photography, by "emptying" it of interpretation: a ray of light strikes a light-sensitive metal surface; salts separate black from white, light from dark, a color from its complement.

Seller's Description:
Used-Very Good. It seems a paradox: of all things it is a medium such as photography, one that operates on the surface, with which Gundula Schulze el Dowy penetrates into the depths of space. She enters the inner spaces and learns her lessons from the stones of ancient Egypt. And she forges an astonishing link between past and present by embracing an original concept of photography, by 'emptying' it of interpretation: a ray of light strikes a light-sensitive metal surface; salts separate black from white, light from dark, a color from its complement. An image. In this view of the world out of focus, from a perspective of motion, the tones begin to resonate in the magic of their oppositions. Wrapped in Brodart dust jacket protector. Book has minor shelf wear.
