Dominic Rouse (1959) - 'The Art of Mediocrity' (2009/21)

"Rouse's corner of photography has few fellow travellers; contemporaneously, Jerry Uelsmann comes to mind. But when I think of his work I think more of the painters Bruegel, Hieronymus Bosch and René Magritte. Rouse does not photograph the world he makes photographs of his mind. Looking at his images is a profoundly different experience than looking at an Ansel Adams photograph. With Adams, one prepares for his photographs by reading John Muir; with Rouse one prepares by reading Lewis Carroll, or even Freud!" (Brooks Jensen - LensWork Publishing, USA) Hand-Signed chromogenic print on Fuji Crystal Archive paper Paper - 15" x 12" (38 x 30 cm) Image - 12½" x 10" (32 x 25 cm) Edition - 50 Hand-signed & numbered at verso with numbered artist's stamp Title below image Signed certificate of Print Authenticity Condition - MINT Ships in a large PVC tube with tracking
