| An in-depth look at the disturbing and abject sides of the American photo artist’s oeuvre
Throughout her career, Cindy Sherman (*1954 in Glen Ridge, New Jersey) has been interested in the derailed and deviant sides of human nature, noticeable both in her selection of subject matter (fairytales, disasters, sex, horror, and surrealism) and in her disquieting interpretations of well-established photographic genres, such as film stills, fashion photography, and society portraiture. This richly illustrated publication seeks to highlight and acknowledge these aspects of her work based on selected examples and accompanied by texts by well-known authors, filmmakers, and artists who likewise deal with the grotesque, the uncanny, and the extraordinary in their artistic practice.(English edition ISBN 978-3-7757-3487-5)

»Ebenso neue Wege geht auch die Publikation, die zur Ausstellung erscheint. Sie ist kein klassischer Katalog mit kunsthistorischen Texten. Stattdessen wurden Künstler und Schriftsteller aus Europa und den USA eingeladen, von Cindy Shermans Kunst ausgehend Texte zu schreiben, die das Werk in Beziehung zu Literatur, Musik, Schauspiel und Film stellen.«
