Description
Published on the occasion of the spring 2015 Metropolitan Museum of Art exhibition Fatal Attraction: Piotr Uklański Photographs, and an accompanying exhibition—curated by Uklański—of works from the Met’s permanent collection, Piotr Uklański: Selects from the Met Collection, this book presents an in-depth examination of Uklański’s photographic oeuvre as well as images from the Met collection exhibition. A luxurious, richly illustrated monograph, Piotr Uklański: Fatal Attraction consists of images of works made by Piotr Uklański, as well as groupings of images of artworks selected by Uklański from the Met’s collections for an accompanying exhibition. Both exhibitions are based on the classical themes of love and death.
