With her great passion for music, architecture, the theatre and opera, Helg's photographs create monumental spaces in which sculpture, painting, installations, and most of all light are constantly interwoven. Like a window opening onto the invisible, giving glimpses of the mind, her light-filled world is weirdly beautiful, at once poetic and spiritual. You step inside and then lose your bearings, as if in a drunken stupor, and tempted to let yourself slide slowly, dangerously between blinding light and total darkness. Beatrice Helg's work ultimately explores the infinite; it is a quest for the absolute, or rather a delving into the boundless identity of an inner mystery. This book presents a selection of her photographs taken over the past twenty-five years, accompanied by a wonderful original commentary by Robert Wilson, as well as critical writings and poetry by Philippe Piguet, Serge Linares and Sylviane Dupuis. Text in English and French.
