She Dances On Jackson (Book) by Vanessa Winship. Like New, 2013. 144 pages. Publisher Mack Books. Delivery time: 3 Weeks – In English. Limited Edition signed.

The reprint of this bestselling book in 2013 coincides with a retrospective of Vanessa Winship’s work at the Barbican Art Gallery in London. In 2011, Vanessa Winship was awarded the Henri Cartier Bresson Prize which funds an artist to pursue a new photographic project.

For more than a year, Winship has traveled the United States, from California to Virginia, from New Mexico to Montana, in pursuit of the famous “American dream”. she dances on Jackson presents a conversation, a lyrical and singing interaction between landscape and portrait exploring the vastness of the United States and trying to understand the link between a territory and its inhabitants. For Winship, this relationship is inextricable; places acquire particular meanings according to the people she meets, what she sees and what happens to her personally. Each human encounter, sound and smell adds additional dimensions to his work and to the resulting photographs.

She dances on Jackson marks a progression. Stylistically similar to her previous work using black and white film and a large format camera, Winship’s portraits remain striking and disturbing, but this body of work reveals that she is also a skilled landscape photographer. For Winship, photography is a process of literacy, a path by which it understands life. Her intimate approach allows the reader to glimpse the world as she sees it, even for a moment.
