Mark Powell

GANADOR DEL CONCURSO RM FOTOLIBRO IBEROAMERICANO 2013.A través de las imágenes tomadas en diferentes lugares de America Latina, Mark Powell nos expone en su libro una narrativa en diferentes niveles que nos lleva de lo conocido a lo tortuoso, desde la composicion hasta el desequilibrio, del humor a lo inquietante.No esta del todo claro si las fotografias de M. Powell son el resultado de posibilidades objetivas, fotografias de calle documentadas, colaboraciones provocativas o una mezcla de estas dos ultimas. Sin embargo, es evidente que ofrece una respuesta a la pregunta que los artistas siempre se han planteado: ¿el acto de observar acaso cambia el origen y el significado de lo que observamos?. La respuesta lleva a otra pregunta: ¿acaso las escenas hubieran ocurrido de esta manera si la camara de Powell no hubiera estado alli?.

In a poignant and captivating collection of sixty-three poems, Mark Powell pays homage to A. E. Housmans A Shropshire Lad, transposing it to his native Essex. Exploring similar themes that define Housmans seminal work - such as memory, myth, longing and mortality -- Powell presents his own insight into unrequited love, the dreamlike nature of youth, the implacability of nostalgia and the agony of loss.
