Samenvatting
Marrigje de Maar (*1944 in The Hague) creates photographs of the ephemeral world of the home, of being rooted. She regards the interior itself as a portrait of identity. The trained sociologist seeks out those striking and magical places where families have come together for generations-where life has worn itself into a house. Very important is her unusual treatment of light: her photographs are veritable masterpieces of chiaroscuro. After five trips to China, a substantial body of work has taken shape. While vast areas of housing in many Chinese communes were being demolished in order to make way for the modern age and its contemporary lifestyle and attitudes, de Maar found a surprising diversity of types and uses of classical living spaces. Never before has the worn and intimate characte... (Lees verder)r of household life in China, in all its culturally hybrid forms, been revealed in such a direct manner.
Over six years and five trips to China, a substantial series formed. While huge residential areas in many Chinese cities were being demolished to make way for the new age and its ways of life, Marrigje de MAAR discovered a still surprisingly wide range of types and uses of classical residential buildings. Here, for the first time, the homely, time-honored character of Chinese households and all their cultural diversity is brought directly before our eyes." (© Hatje Cantz Verlag, 2011)
