Swimming Studies
Swimming Studies" is a wonderful unique book from the writer and artist Leanne Shapton author of "Important Artifacts and Personal Property from the Collection of Lenore Doolan and Harold Morris Including Books Street Fashion and Jewelry" along with her artwork. As a teenager Leanne Shapton trained for the Olympic swimming trials; now an artist she is still drawn inexorably to swimming in pools and on beaches across the world. What do you with an all-absorbing activity once its past its relevance and yet you cant quite give it up? Is it possible to find a new purpose for its rigours and focus? "Swimming Studies" is an original meditative work that explores what it is like to move from a world of competition and discipline to one of recreation and introspection.
Giving a fascinating glimpse into the private realms of swimming and drawing Shapton tells an intimate story of suburban adolescence family ties and the solitary underwater moments that now ground her artistic habits. "Whenever I come across something of Leanne Shaptons I feel like I have found a hidden treasure". (Amy Sedaris)."
