| book description |

A riotous photographic romp celebrating sociality and everyday clutter A glorious photobook in which people, places and things casually tangle up into beautifully baffling configurations, Jordan Weitzmanâ€™s (born 1984) Participation captures the world at a slant where naked bodies form sultry architecture and everyday clutter assembles into art. With a Louis Fratino dust jacket featuring half-etched figures and mysterious symbols, the bookâ€™s sequence is intimate and playful while never spelling itself out. Its title expresses the photographerâ€™s immersion in his milieu, as he locates with an exacting compositional eye where the goofiness and boredom of everyday life drift into formal complexity and undefinable emotional states; it is an invitation as much as it is a challenge, not only descriptive of Weitzmanâ€™s willingness to get in and meet his subjects head, waist or side-on but for the viewer to crane their neck and pick apart his gorgeously twisted poetry of the strange ways people come together.
