Adam Fuss has been exploring the subject of water for more than thirty years and is perhaps best known for life-size photograms of this essential element. Here for the first time is a book dedicated solely to the theme of water in Fuss’s oeuvre. Included here are pictures that are now iconic in the history of contemporary photography, such as the swimming snakes, the splashing newborn baby, and Fuss’s studies of concentric circles created by drops. Alongside these are many unpublished images, all exquisitely reproduced. The primary influence for Fuss is the personal observation of nature – nature being the underlying subject of all his work.
