  • Early work by Letinsky included portraits of people, but later moved into images of the aftermath of their presence: scattered tables, food, moved furniture, and so on. In this series, called “Ill Form and Void Full”—the subject of a 2012 exhibition at Valerie Carberry and a forthcoming monograph by Radius Books—Letinsky has arranged similar such scenes using collage elements like flat, excised images of food, serviceware, emptied bottles, sculpture, and potted plants, among other objects. The tableaux, which sometimes include imagery taken from Letinsky’s earlier work, are photographed and then printed, resulting in pictures that are simultaneously lively, spacious, flat, and languid.

  • Chicago-based photographer Laura Letinsky has a new monograph, Ill Form & Void Full, published by Radius Books that shifts the way we think of the classical still life. For her new series, Laura creates references to the table from existing photographs, Martha Stewart, Dwell and Good Housekeeping magazines, her old work, the art of friends and actual objects. This process shows how ideas about the private sphere and their manifestation in our lives are always predicated upon what has come before: that is, perception itself is a construction. Included in this monograph are all 50 works from the series, as well as an interview with the artist conducted by the acclaimed novelist and cultural critic, Lynne Tillman.

  • When food is fodder for art, it usually leaves our mouths watering for a taste of the bounty. Think of those 17th century Dutch masters with their perspective-perfect celebrations of fish and game. Or van Gogh's shiny oranges or Cezanne's subtle lemons. Or more fun than all of those, Edward Weston's too-sexy photographs of peppers and turnips.

  • LAURA LETINSKY: ILL FORM & VOID FULL by Radius Books Hardcover, 11.5 x 13 inches, 120 pages, 50 color images. Interview by Lynne Tillman. Photography by Laura Letinsky. 978-1-9334435-87-8 Trade Edition: $55   Chicago-based photographer Laura Letinsky (born 1962) is known for her depictions of the remnants of foods and objects common to the dining table, ranging from a lipstick-smeared half-empty wine glass to nibbled-upon cakes over ripe fruits. These works have commonly used an actual tabletop as their point of origin. For her new series Ill Form & Void Full, she creates references to the table from existing photographs, Martha Stewart, Dwell and Good Housekeeping magazines, her old work, the art of friends and actual objects. This process shows how ideas about the private sphere and their manifestation in our lives are always predicated upon what has come before: that is, perception itself is a construction. Included in this monograph are all 50 works from the series, as well as an interview with the artist conducted by the acclaimed novelist and cultural critic, Lynne Tillman.
