Supertourist is a new interpretation by Max Pam of the large body of work accumulated within the last 10 years during his travels in all parts of the globe.
The artist sort-of "traveled" within this large archive to conceive this book, a complete rethinking of his work. We do indeed recognise Max Pam's eye and feel, with lively, colourful, witty, funny and sometimes unsettling images.
The photographs, grouped in 5 sections, are introduced by texts from the artist, where he reflects over his work and the way he sees the world.
This book is also a beautiful piece of work : a hard slipcase and a very elegant satin-like cover, printing quality and design of the highest standards..
The book also features a tipped-in Kodak Print inserted on the flyleaf.
PLEASE NOTE : The print included in this copy figures a fisherman, which is much rarer than the "usual" one with a naked women lying on a bed included in most copies (less than 50 copies in a 500-copy printrun).
