Vahap Avşar
Lost Shadows, [AND Museum], 2015-2016
Complete set $5
A series of photographic reproductions originally produced in the late 1970s by the Turkish printer “AND Postcard Company”. They commissioned photographers to capture images of cities, towns, ceremonies and tourist sites in Turkey to be made into postcards intended for domestic travelers visiting places within their own country. The vast archive of 15,000 images came into Vahap Avşar’s possession in 2010, many of which are nearly identical and most never having been printed. Avşar selected for his first iteration of Lost Shadows a series of twelve previously unprinted images. (excerpt from Jenifer Papararo's essay on the project)
