Bae Bien-U: Windscape
We can hear the wind, taste it, feel it. And as my golden retrievers, Moxie and Harry, remind me on any blowy day as they periscope their snouts into the air, we can also smell it. But here the South Korean photographer Bae, Bien-U lets us see the wind, using landscape to give gusts and breezes shape. This elemental book and its 500 shades of gray are all ocean and stone, fog and long grasses, revealing an unsettled weather of the soul. I almost expected Moxie and Harry to trot over and give the book a sniff. (Dana JenningsThe New York Times2013-05-24)
