- Summary:
- "'Modern Alchemy' is the brainchild of Viviane Sassen and Emanuele Coccia. The photographer and the philosopher <U+2014> both leading figures in their fields <U+2014> weaved together images and words, engaging in a fruitful dialogue deeply rooted in the Champagne terroir and the inspiring relationship Maison Perrier-Jouët entertains with art and nature. A series of 80 photographs and an essay intersect and collide, creating a space where the creativity of matter throughout all living things can be marveled at anew. Pictures mix and match with ideas, the history of planet Earth encounters that of artistic creation, and matter joins hands with the mind <U+2014> producing an infinitely manifold work of art and establishing a modern alchemy where both vision and thought can be upended and renewed." -- from publisher's website.
- Alchimie moderne est née de la rencontre entre Viviane Sassen et Emanuele Coccia. Ces deux figures majeures de la photographie et de la philosophie tissent ensemble un dialogue constitué de mots et d?images, enraciné dans le territoire champenois, et ancré dans les inspirations d?art et de nature de la Maison Perrier-Jouët.0Dans cet ouvrage, une série de 80 photographies et un essai se croisent et s?unissent pour offrir un émerveillement neuf sur la puissance créatrice de la matière au sein du vivant. Les photographies et les mots, l?histoire de la Terre et l?histoire de la création, l?esprit et la matière, se mêlent, se confondent, se superposent et produisent un art infini pouvant prendre mille formes, une alchimie moderne qui bouleverse le regard et l?esprit.000 0.
