Description

Amateur consists of four volumes and unites a vast collection of amateur photographs assembled by filmmaker Sebastien Lifshitz over the last twenty years. Found at flea markets all over the world and in photo galleries or on the Internet, they are divided into four themes: the uncanny, empty places, blurs, and beachsides. Each volume revolves around one of these recurring themes, playing with the different frames, the changes of light, movement and subject in order to create an immense poetic collage.

Reviews

Lifshitz's assemblages leave the viewer to imagine where the images come from, who took them and what they mean; he masterfully invites interpretation.--Salonee Gadgil "Creative Review"
Lifshitz's collection shows the human experience, by people for people...It is a messy, chaotic, strange, beautiful, and sometimes blurry celebration of life and all of its oddities.--Baylee McKeel "L'Oeil de la Photographie"
