| MUSIC FOR YOUR EYES
A photographic essay by Per Volquartz and Frank Su Huang
Featuring 10 plates by each artist.
Sometimes musical notes bring out images in your mind.
Sometimes images make you think of music.
The plates in this book show simple notes in the stark imagery of Per Volquartz
and symphonic compositions in the landscape photos of Frank Su Huang.
When looking through the pages it becomes clear that photography is not
a technical medium. Instead it is a unique art form capable of revealing thoughts
and emotions that transcend the commonly perceived notion that photography
is a mere craft capable only of making literal interpretations
of our surroundings.
The viewer will soon discover how line and form become musical progressions,
starting from simple notes, ending in a crescendo of visual excitement.
Also, you will hear the lonely sound of the wind and the haunting echos found
in the spectacular scenery in the area known as the American West.
Both Per Volquartz and Frank Su Huang share a profound love for visual imagery.
The compilation of photographs in this small volume will make you appreciate
the music they reveal in every day objects and in the natural scene
of Western America.
It is music for your eyes.
