« I believe that the beautiful is not a substance in itself, but nothing but a drawing of shadows, a game of chiaroscuro produced by the juxtaposition of various substances, the beautiful loses its existence if we remove shadow effects »
“Praise of the shadow” - Junichiro Tanizaki
I conceived this book as a series of pages, like a moving meditation which puts us in contact with life through solitude… of light and its shadows, shadows and lights; duality of the world.
Book review by Robin Titchener:
“Your book arrive today, totally awesome. I men..
It’s a monochrome widescreen journey into the heart of “noir” territory. Diminutive in size, epic in scope, it’s provides illusion and feeds imagination in equal mesures.
A new collection from French photographer David Nissen, one of the finest contemporary practitioners of low-light black and white, his new book “Out of The Darkness”.
Your feel for late night ambiance and dark/light confluence is amazing, I totally love it, WOW, the way you work with light and darkness, and shadows is absolutely wonderful.
One can really immerse into these pictures…a true jewel..”
