"Morandi's Books" is a collection of works by American female photographer Mary Ellen Bartley. Born in New York and still based there, Bartley continues to create and explore the materials and forms of printed books, as well as pictorial and abstract images using them. The texture and even tactile sensations that these bring are at odds with the current digital age, but they are very simple, tranquil, and full of layered beauty. This book pays homage to Giorgio Morandi, a master Italian painter who has inspired Bartley for many years. Invited to Morandi's personal library, she describes the charm of paper in books, which the master loved for many years, and the multi-layered worldview that emerges when these layers are layered, overlapping with Morandi's layered and aesthetic worldview. This is a wonderful collection of works that is as mysterious as meditation, and also attracts the affinity between photographer and writer.
