#PhotoLondon booth (G10) spotlight: Alec Soth's I Know How Furiously Your Heart Is Beating ♥️
For the 2023 edition of @photolondonfair, the Magnum Gallery presents an installation co-curated by Alec Soth (@littlebrownmushroom), @gregoryhalpern and Lindokuhle Sobekwa. Although these are three very different photographers, their images unite in their interrogation of humanity, nature and hope.
One of the three works by Alec Soth on display is from his photobook, I Know How Furiously Your Heart Is Beating, which takes its name from a line in Wallace Stevens' short poem, The Gray Room. This series of large-format color photographs isn't about any particular place or population, as Soth wanted to get "back to the fundamentals of portraiture – just that one-on-one encounter, without it being layered with all this other meaning."
"I love the luxury of being able to just stare at another person," Soth says – a pleasure that Nick, a model who the photographer met by chance during a trip to Los Angeles, seems to understand: reclined in jeans on a shaggy blanket like an ad for either, he seems complicit in the seesawing of intimacy and distance.
