{"product_id":"9783775763332","title":"Spencer Ostrander. Wreckage","description":"Spencer Ostrander's visual study of mangled car bodies began in 2023 when he drove his cancer-stricken father-in-law, Paul Auster, five weeks to and from radiation treatment from Park Slope, Brooklyn, to Manhattan's Upper East Side. For years, Ostrander drove past the impounded vehicles outside the 90th Street Police Precinct in Brooklyn without giving them much thought. One day, he suddenly saw them as if for the first time. The resulting photographs are haunting documents of collisions - the mangled remains of unknown human stories. Rendered in vivid colors and abstract forms, they act as silent witnesses to their drivers and passengers, to the flesh and blood missing from the images, and to the strangeness of mortality itself.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpencer Ostrander was born in Seattle in 1984 and has lived in New York for two decades. He has published three photography books: Times Square in the Rain (2022, Hatje Cantz), Long Live King Kobe (2022, ZE Books), and Bloodbath Nation (2023, Grove Press) with text by Paul Auster.","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54454586441992,"sku":"9783775763332","price":40.34,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775763332.jpg?v=1774170994","url":"https:\/\/hatjecantz.com\/products\/9783775763332","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
