Description: "Ann Mandelbaum's multimedia approach combining photography, sculpture, and video, makes her work one of the most convincing, authentic positions in contemporary surrealism today. She explores the experiences of her own body, its fantastic reality, and the psychophysical fate she has experienced." "This is the third book to feature the work of New York artist Ann Mandelbaum. In it, she relates and compares casts of body parts made in recent years, fragments of reality reinterpreted in her photographs, and the microorganisms she has invented and collected in display cases."--BOOK JACKET
