The award-winning, internationally exhibiting artist, and renowned pioneer in digital image-making is publishing his third monograph: a collection of psychologically charged depictions of the natural world represents 15 years of the artist's career, the entire series gathered together in one volume for the very first time. Simen Johan summons a metaphorically dense world into being where human fantasy and nature collides. Simen Johan originally drew attention in the early 1990s by merging digital manipulation with traditional darkroom techniques. Since then, he has been developing a hybrid form of image-making that integrates candidly photographed animals and landscapes with a compositional structuring and conceptual intent typically associated with painting and cinema. As Lyle Rexer pointed out in a 2016 issue of Photograph Magazine: Simen Johan is "one of the first and best artists to incorporate digital image processing into this creative practice." In a catalogue essay, David E. Little, Executive Director of the International Center of Photography, proclaims "Johan's photographs underscore the importance of the creative act in photography, not as an act in itself, but as a means towards a conceptual and narrative goal." Johan travels near and far to photograph his source material, and can find inspiration anywhere from the local zoo to the jungles of Costa Rica, or the lava fields of Iceland. He then spends countless hours assembling his images captured in these far-flung locations into a unifying whole. The result is an often-unsettling sense of placelessness. We see in this collection images of pigeons flocking toward light like moths (or angels); stripes on a dazzle of Gr vy's zebras mesh with the fronds of geographically incongruent palms; two hapless caribou glazed with ice, frozen in a scene that is both tranquil and brutal. Each image reveals poetic and often unexpected relationships that speak to the illusory and multifaceted nature of existence. Tensions between what is revealed and what is concealed, what is alluring and what is menacing, what is fact and what is fiction, both shape and unsettle the scenes. This book is the culmination of a 15-year-long project, started in 2005, and gathered here for the very first time.
I denne biografien om kong Karl XIV Johan (Jean Baptiste Bernadotte) f lger vi hovedpersonen helt fra hans barndom i Pau i det s rlige Frankrike, via hans lange karriere innen Frankrikes armeer, og fram til hans regentperiode som konge av Sverige og Norge i 1818.En betydelig del av biografien er via til Karl Johans relasjon til Napoleon Bonaparte, som f rst bidro til l fte Bernadotte opp til hans framst ende stilling innen de franske milit re styrkene, og endog til en stilling som fyrste av Ponte Corvo. Deres relasjon skulle seinere hen komme til bli langt mer anstrengt, etter at Bernadotte som svensk regent s seg n dt til ty til v pnene mot sitt f deland og sin tidligere overordnede general, Napoleon.Kong Karl XIV Johan framstilles som en fredselskende konge som oppn dde stor popularitet s vel i Sverige som i Norge, til tross for de utfordringene han st tte p som regent i fremmede land.
I 1810 ble Carl Johan valgt til tronfølger i Sverige, i 1814 ble han kronprins i Norge, og fire år senere konge i Sverige og i Norge. Brev, dagbøker og andre kilder gir et innblikk i hvordan samtiden så på den franske marskalken som ble stamfar til de skandinaviske og det belgiske kongehus.
Johan i denne boka får tilnavnet Stor-Johan fordi han er større og sterkere enn de fleste. Det får mange til å tro at han kan klare alt mulig og ikke er redd for noe. Men er det slik? For selv om man er kjempestor og kjempesterk betyr det ikke at man er tøff på alle andre måter. Stor-Johan, i virkeligheten: Stor-Johan er inspirert av fortellingene om Nordlandskjempen Johan Arnt Bredesen (1859 - 1904). Han var født i Olsvik i Lofoten, vokste opp i Alsvåg i Vesterålen og imponerte folk over hele Norge med sin enorme styrke og størrelse. I likhet med denne bokas Stor-Johan fikk han uniform av kongen, og fant ekte lykke først da han møtte ei dame med navn Andrea.
