'Snaps from Sydney' is a handsome 128 page photographic journey through the streets
of Australia's largest city. Photographer Andrew Stark using a purely candid,
documentary style has over a twenty year period captured his home city in gritty,
grainy 35mm black & white. Like the city itself the photographs are youthful,
vibrant and often wryly humorous, yet darkly many sub themes run throughout
as Stark whispers of struggle, of a city caught between old ways and new opportunities.
It's been shot with a keen eye for the excluded and embraces with some
empathy an untraditional Sydney. 'Snaps from Sydney' is a welcome edition
to the burgeoning library of Australian visual art. |

"Stark presents us with personal glimpses of frantic moments of street life removed from their context of space and time by the click of the shutter. Images are juxtaposed as contrasting ideas, as parodies, as metaphors. Differences of culture, gender, age, social activity, political and personal statement are contrasted to evoke a dialogue between the subject and the viewer. These images are refreshingly natural. They are about the subjects, and the considered and thoughtful vision of the photographer." -Photofile Magazine. |
