People consume photographs, says Erik Kessels; they don't look at them anymore. This volume is a primer on how to look--and how to better understand the hybrid practice of this artist who defies categorization. Including more than twenty of the artist's series and featuring essays by Simon Baker, Hans Aarsman, Sandra S. Phillips, and Francesco Zanot, The Many Lives of Erik Kessels is published in conjunction with a major mid-career retrospective at CAMERA-Centro Italiano per la Fotografia in Turin, Italy.
