Scope and Contents
This book is from the "Invisible City Series." Zellen describes her work in an afterward that states, "The photograph is a framed segment of reality, captured by an unknown photographer, It is a picture of a public place - an interior or exterior view that depicts the city as a place for action and change. The image is fragmented and distanced from the original through cropping and selection. In these images the places become uninhabitable and the people become isolated. The language is abstracted. The text becomes an image." The Sackner Archive holds a photograph from this series. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
