The deceptively simple process—he blacks out all of the windows leaving just a pinhole opening in one of them—produces photographs of astonishing, complex beauty. Due to the nature of refracted light, the world outside his darkened room is projected, upside-down, onto the interior space within which he works, converting the room, in effect, into the interior of a camera. Morell then photographs the results with a large-format view camera, often requiring exposures of eight hours or more. Locations around the world were chosen for the interesting details and juxtapositions they would elicit—the Empire State Building lies across a bedspread in a midtown Manhattan interior; the Tower of London is imprinted on the walls of a room in the Tower Hotel; the countryside in rural Cuba, Morell’s birthplace, plays across the walls of a crumbling interior that is rich with the patina of its own history. Every image is full of surprises and revelations.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abelardo Morell","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55042234417479,"sku":"9780821277515","price":95.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1010\/2420\/3079\/files\/55f210471dde5_720.jpg?v=1789562791"},{"product_id":"abelardo-morell-a-book-of-books","title":"Abelardo Morell - A Book of Books","description":"\u003cp\u003eHB, 108 pages\u003cbr\u003e\nBulfinch, First edition 2002\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLisätiedot\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA visual tribute to the printed word, this sumptuous ode to books will be irresistible to anyone who treasures the feel of fine paper and the special allure of a clothbound volume.
