Helene Binet by Marco Iuliano

Helene Binet by Marco Iuliano

Over a period of forty years, H l ne Binet has photographed both contemporary and historical architecture - this is the complete monograph of her work, with two extensive critical essays. Marco Iuliano details H l ne Binet's background, from her childhood in the Italian fishing village of Sperlonga and in Rome, through her early ' discovery' of architectural photographer Lucien Herv , to other significant influences, like the Architectural Association in London where she met Zaha Hadid. The essay highlights in detail Binet's approach to photography, her process and archive. Martino Stierli sets Binet's work within the conceptual framework of architectural photography, discussing whether an architectural photograph is an inventory of a building or space, a translation into a two-dimensional image or, rather, an image in its own right; an artifact that loosely relates to the original object or phenomenon. The two essays are followed by a catalogue of Binet's work, which is framed within a series of her recurring themes emerged through dialogues between the authors and the photographer.

Marco Iuliano teaches at the University of Liverpool School of Architecture and is a faculty member of the British School at Rome.

Martino Stierli is The Philip Johnson Chief Curator of Architecture and Design at The Museum of Modern Art in New York.
