Four critical slideshow works from the iconic photographer, activist and pioneer of the genre
Published with Moderna Museet, Stockholm.
This slipcased box set presents four of Nan Goldin's most important slideshow works, presented in book form in their entirety for the first time. The first volume Memory Lost explores the darkness of addiction and the claustrophobia of drug use, and is considered by Goldin to be her most important piece since the seminal Ballad of Sexual Dependency. Sirens / Salome is a single volume containing two works comprised of found footage: Sirens, about the experience of being ecstatically high and named after the Greek myth in which sailors are seduced by pleasure to their death; and Salome, which explores temptation, destruction and the male gaze. In Stendhal Syndrome Goldin pairs her autobiographical images with photographs that she made of paintings and sculptures from museums throughout the world, centered around themes of love and desire.Housed in an elegant clothbound slipcase, Honey on a Razor Blade compellingly retains the presentation of these slideshows by presenting each image in the same format on a black background and preserving the original sequencing. Complementing these visual volumes is the reader Heartbeat, comprising 36 texts commissioned by Goldin and many published here for the first time: the most comprehensive, insightful and eloquent body of writing on her work to date.
Nan Goldin (born 1953) lives and works between New York and Paris. In 2018 Goldin and her colleagues founded P.A.I.N. (Prescription Addiction Intervention Now), a direct-action group advocating harm reduction and education to address the stigma of addiction and the mounting overdose crisis.
