Résumé

Résumé : While Francesca Woodman’s photographic work has been widely celebrated, little has been published until now about her remarkable series of artist’s books. The basis of these works is in books that Woodman bought in local shops and flea markets throughout her travels in Italy in the 1970s, which she later repurposed to provide intriguing backgrounds onto which she pasted her prints, trans- parencies, and written annotations. Collected together for the first time, these books demonstrate a sophisticated relationship to narrative and sequence and offer a new understanding of the scope of Woodman’s engagement with the book form. Francesca Woodman: The Artist’s Books collects for the very first time every page of all eight of Francesca Woodman’s unique artist’s books in one comprehensive volume. It includes two newly discovered books which have never been seen before, alongside better-known titles such as Some Disordered Interior Geometries.
Biographie : Francesca Woodman (1958–1981) lived and worked in Boulder, Colorado; Providence, Rhode Island; Rome, Italy, and New York City. During her lifetime, Woodman had solo exhibitions at Addison Gallery of American Art, Andover, Massachusetts (1976) and Libreria Maldoror, Rome (1978), and group exhibitions at Galleria Ugo Ferrante, Rome (1978); Daniel Wolf, Inc, New York (1980); and the Alternative Museum, New York (1980). Her artist’s book, Some Disordered Interior Geometries, was published by Synapse Press in 1981. Woodman’s first solo museum exhibition was presented at the Wellesley College Museum, Massachusetts, and Hunter College Art Gallery, New York (1986), followed by Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain, Paris (1998); San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (2011); Guggenheim Museum, New York (2012); and Moderna Museet, Stockholm (2015), among others. Woodman’s photographs are included in major museum collections including Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; Museum of Modern Art, New York; Guggenheim Museum, New York; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC; Tate Gallery, London; and Centre Pompidou, Musée national d’art moderne, Paris.
