Appreciation towards Andrew Zuckerman Studio for providing the following description:

来自Andrew Zuckerman Studio制作的植物图像，这是蔷薇系列的一部分。最近Andrew Zuckerman Studio出版了一本书Flower，其中收录了超过300种类的花朵，用精确的表达将花儿的色彩层次，形式之美还有细微的纹理淋漓展现。这些让人吃惊的美丽静物图像立足于在各种自然条件差异下形成的千秋花儿，这些花儿都直观的揭示了在地球上生存的生物形体之美。

Andrew Zuckerman’s Flower is predicated on contemporizing the well-mined terrain of botanical imagery. Culled from an investigation of over 300 species, Zuckerman aims, as always, to translate the essential nature of his subjects and unearth qualities that have previously escaped scrutiny.

In the blank field of pure white light, each flower exists on its own terms. Every aspect is made explicit. What one notices immediately are the astonishing gradations of color and variations of form, followed by boundless textural nuance. The effect of this precision is at once taxonomically specific and startlingly lovely.

The images contained within transcend still life. These are flowers in a distinct time and place, responding to the pull of light, gravity, and water. At close range, they reveal a kind of topography for survival, exposing the structural motivations— vascular, respiratory, reproductive—for such arresting physical beauty.

 

Here’s some more information from the Andrew Zuckerman Studio:

Andrew Zuckerman biography and headshot

Noted filmmaker and photographer, Andrew Zuckerman, utilizes a multitude of platforms to produce work that is systematically executed, conceptually based, and democratically presented. Minimalist in nature, Zuckerman aims to create atmospheres of clarity and neutrality to facilitate the viewer’s access to the material. He has employed this distinctive approach in four critically acclaimed multi-media projects— Creature (2007), Wisdom (2008), Bird (2009), and Music (2010)— which have been realized as books, films, and traveling exhibitions. His books have been translated into numerous languages and published in 18 international editions. His latest book, Flower, will be published in October 2012. Zuckerman’s 2007 short film, “High Falls,” premiered at the Sundance Film Festival and was selected as Best Short Film at the Woodstock Film Festival. His work has been exhibited extensively worldwide, and has been collected in and commissioned for public and private collections. He lives with his family in New York City.
