Christian Patterson (born 1972, Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, USA) is an American photographer known for his ''Sound Affects'' and ''Redheaded Peckerwood'' series which have received solo exhibitions and been published as books. ''Redheaded Peckerwood'' was awarded the Rencontres d'Arles Author Book Award in 2012〔The Rencontres d'Arles Award Winners: 2012〕 and Patterson has been awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship〔(John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation )〕 and the Vevey International Photography Award.〔Ye Ming, "(Christian Patterson Wins Vevey International Photography Award )", Time (magazine), 26 May 2015. Accessed 5 September 2015.〕 ==Biography== In 2002, Patterson moved from Brooklyn, New York to Memphis, Tennessee to work with the photographer William Eggleston. In 2005, he completed his first project, ''Sound Affects,'' a collection of color photographs that explore Memphis as a visual and musical place, and use light and color as visual analogues to sound and music. In 2008, a ''Sound Affects'' book was published by Edition Kaune, Sudendorf. Also in 2005, Patterson began working on his second project, ''Redheaded Peckerwood'', which is loosely inspired by the late 1950s killing spree of Charles Starkweather and Caril Ann Fugate across Nebraska. Photographs are the heart of this work, but they are complemented and informed by documents and objects that belonged to the killers and their victims. Later that year, Patterson moved back to New York. In 2011, a ''Redheaded Peckerwood'' book was published by Mack and named one of the best photobooks of the year by many critics.〔Marc Feustel, ("Photobooks 2011: And the Winner is..." ), Eyecurious, 20 December 2011.〕 The book was nominated for the 2012 Kraszna-Krausz Book Awards〔(World Photography Organisation: "2012 Kraszna-Krausz Book Awards" )〕 and won the 2012 Recontres d'Arles Author Book Award.〔 It is introduced in ''The Photobook: A History, Vol. 3'', edited by Gerry Badger and Martin Parr. In 2015, Patterson completed Bottom of the Lake, a project revisiting his hometown of Fond du Lac, Wisconsin (French for “Bottom of the Lake”). A book was published by Koenig Books and takes the form of a facsimile of the artist's family's 1973 telephone book from Fond du Lac, with Patterson's own photographs, drawings and notes inserted. Like ''Redheaded Peckerwood'', this new work mixes large-format colour landscapes, black-and-white snapshots, appropriated and manipulated archival images, and studio still lifes. As as installation and exhibition, the work includes an interactive rotary telephone object and wooden sculpture. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Christian Patterson」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
