With In Your Dreams, "Terri Weifenbach negotiates a photographic high wire without missing a step. She makes beautiful photographs, and beauty is where many photographers have come to grief since many confuse prettiness with art. Weifenbach does not. Her photographs are profoundly rather than superficially beautiful." In the vivid hues of these 25 exhibition-size color photographic plates that revel in a garden on "blissful summers' days… Weifenbach does not do what is expected but by means of differential focusing-sometimes so extreme that just one single leaf is in focus-she ensures that her garden is not a static experience but a kaleidoscope of movement and light… The experience she describes is both a profound and a true one" (Parr & Badger II:45). As issued without dust jacket.

A fine copy.
