SIGNED Published on the occasion of the 2007-2008 exhibition Taryn Simon: An American Index of the Hidden and Unfamiliar at The Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, and the Museum für Moderne Kunst, Frankfurt am Main. Fittingly presented in the style of a reference library index, Simon's follow-up to her provocative and acclaimed book The Innocents continues to provoke questions about photography's role in social, cultural and legal discourse. From the publisher: "In An American Index of the Hidden and Unfamiliar, Taryn Simon documents spaces that are integral to America's foundation, mythology and daily functioning, but remain inaccessible or unknown to a public audience. She has photographed rarely seen sites from domains including: science, government, medicine, entertainment, nature, security and religion. This index examines subjects that, while provocative or controversial, are currently legal. The work responds to a desire to discover unknown territories, to see everything. Simon makes use of the annotated photograph's capacity to engage and inform the public. Transforming that which is off-limits or under-the-radar into a visible and intelligible form, she confronts the divide between the privileged access of the few and the limited access of the public.".
