And in fact, her photographs depict spaces that only seem to be physical rooms. In reality, they are spiritual spaces that tell of the deeds, dreams, and nightmares of their inhabitants. Without featuring any people at all, Venables still follows their tracks. \u003cBR\u003eOn the computer, she interweaves close-ups of living spaces, hallways, staircases, elevators, or tents into mysterious photographic tableaux. Her \u003cI\u003eDouble Bedroom,\u003c\/I\u003e for instance, creates a claustrophobic impression, due to the size of the beds in relation to the tiny space they are in. Due to the pink fleshiness of the carpet and voluminous bedspread the room takes on human personalities.\u003c?xml:namespace prefix = \"o\" \/\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoBodyText style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; LINE-HEIGHT: normal\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial\"\u003e\u003cFONT face=TheSans-Plain\u003eThis is the first book to present Raïssa Venables’s intoxicating color photographs, in which she pursues tales of places in an intimate and intelligent way.\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoBodyText style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; LINE-HEIGHT: normal\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial\"\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoBodyText style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; LINE-HEIGHT: normal\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial\"\u003e\u003cFONT face=TheSans-Plain\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\u003cSPAN style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans-Plain; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt\"\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; LINE-HEIGHT: 14pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans-Plain; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt\"\u003eExhibition schedule: Kunstverein Ulm, March 19–April 23, 2006 \u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Lucida Console'; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt\"\u003e·\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans-Plain; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt\"\u003e Städtische Galerie Waldkraiburg, February 9–March 18, 2007 \u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Lucida Console'; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt\"\u003e·\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans-Plain; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt\"\u003e Kunstverein Ludwigshafen, May\u0026nbsp;10–July 1, 2007 \u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Lucida Console'; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt\"\u003e·\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans-Plain; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt\"\u003e Kunstverein Grafschaft Bentheim,\u0026nbsp;October 13–December 30, 2007 \u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Lucida Console'; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt\"\u003e·\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans-Plain; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt\"\u003e Oldenburger Kunstverein,\u0026nbsp;2007\/2008\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44425469460744,"sku":"9783775717632","price":29.8,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775717632_7a1ea3d6-2bb2-4007-b77d-6c6b923f6acf.jpg?v=1744128933","url":"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/15550-rassa-venables","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
