THIS IS ME, THIS IS YOU BY RONI HORN (ONE COPY)
"This is Me, This is You", is Horn´s handbook of identity. With this uniquely bound twinned volume we have a book with no end. Peruse the 48 images taken with a point and shoot camera, and as you arrive at the last image, you turn the book over and begin again: now with a paired complement for each of the 48 images, taken only a few seconds later. This work, a single and singular portrait photographed over a two year period evokes a multitude - of identities, of images, of icons from Bette Davis to Marlon Brando. Ultimately it is the multitude in each of us.
