The Personal Collection
Photographs by Ben Larrabee
60 pp., 50 black & white images, 11 x 13”
A compendium of museum quality, fine art photography by nationally recognized photographer Ben Larrabee. The collection is composed of nudes, landscapes and portraits.
Ben's work can be found not only in some of the finest homes from Santa Barbara to Chicago to New York. but also in the permanent collections of museums including The MoMA in New York, The Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, The George Eastman House in Rochester, NY and The High Museum in Atlanta.
"We all have within ourselves a particular truth, a spirit and energy that makes us who we are. This authentic identity does not step forward on demand; it does not pose, and the minute I ask it to do so, I turn a picture into a statement about me rather than about you.
Indeed, my art has much less to do with taking pictures than with helping my subjects express their own truths. This never happens the same way twice. I need to be alert and awake to the energy of my subjects. I could never describe these attributes in words, but I know how to let my camera find and record them. "
