Spanning the artist's career, this richly illustrated volume explores Resnick's early influences and education at Cooper Union and CalArts, discusses her series and photobooks such as See and Re-visions, and situates the artist's work within the history of contemporary art. An afterword by Laurie Anderson speaks to the very personal vision of Resnick’s photography.
