Shadows of Love, Shadows of Loneliness: Volume Two

This is the second part of William T. Vollmann’s collection that offers a retrospective of his visual artwork spanning four decades. New commentary from Vollmann explores his process, inspiration, and intersections with his writing. A celebrated author of over twenty-five books, Vollmann’s equally ambitious career as a photographer, printmaker, and painter reflects his deep interest in marginalized people, profound empathy, and humility.

This book includes Kodachrome slides of Afghan Mujahideen, handmade watercolor sketches from Subarctic Canada, gum bichromate prints of American landscapes, silver gelatin portfolios of diverse subjects, photogenic drawings of Tahitian women, transgender self-portraits, Bible woodblock prints with female depictions of God, acrylic paintings of California landscapes, cyanotypes, platinotypes, salt prints, and gold-toned Vandykes.
