Light Warriorsby Joyce Tenneson
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:A few years ago, Joyce Tenneson began a series of dramatic, up-close portraits of women, all taken with Polaroid's remarkable 20 x 24-inch camera. These striking images are reminiscent of Tenneson's earlier work (Transformations and Illuminations) in their haunting, dreamlike qualities. However, these striking portraits of the female figure, often partially nude, draped in fabric, with unusual headdresses or objects in their arms, illuminated by eerie light, are unforgettable and a bold departure from her earlier work. We think that this book will appeal not only to Tenneson's loyal fans — the photographic, feminist, and spiritual market — but also to a more general audience, capitalizing on her increasing visibility in the fashion field. Last fall Tenneson shot a major campaign for Estee Lauder, Magique — which is now featured in most fashion magazines. Estee Lauder discovered her work by seeing our book Illuminations. With a foot in both the fine arts and fashion/advertising field, Tenneson is a much admired photographer with an unmistakable style.

Description:This dramatic and compelling new book is reminiscent of Tenneson's earlier work of the human figure. Yet it is also a bold departure as Tenneson's palette has changed from monochromatic color to luminous dark browns and blacks.
