Alumna Lisa Robinson Publishes Her First Monograph

We're proud to announce that alumna, Lisa Robinson (MFA) has published a book of her photographic series, Snowbound. The hardcover book published by Kehrer Verlag contains 50 beautiful color reproductions.

"For five winters, the young American photographer Lisa M. Robinson made photographs in the snow. Snowbound depicts landscapes in which everyday objects - alienated and sunken in snow - civilize the natural surroundings. Traces of human existence set accents in the white landscape, delimiting it and often popping up in an amusing or incongruous way. A lonely hammock, a trampoline or a swimming pool are echoes of both the summer past and of personal memories. But Lisa M. Robinson is not interested in showing the obvious; instead, the photographer makes use of the many aggregate states of water - ice, snow, fog, water - as metaphors for life and transience."
