Kitty and Horse Fisherman.
The photographs in FISH WORK – The Bering Sea (Nazraeli Press in conjunction with Charles A. Hartman Fine Art, ISBN 978-1-59005-306-5, $65) by photographer and Alaskan commercial fisherman Corey Arnold capture moments from Arnold’s grueling retreats as a crew member aboard a fishing boat to the Bering Sea. The book, his life long project, has been chosen as one of the best photo books of the year by PDN and American PHOTO magazines.
“With scenes of boat life so vivid that some shots can induce fear or seasickness, the artist’s perspective also reveals the tender soulfulness of a fisherman’s extended life at sea. His skillful compositions depict the simultaneous bravery, toil, humor and gumption that ‘fish-work’ demands. Yet the series also illuminates the aesthetic sublimity that can only be experienced, ultimately, by those willing to risk their lives where the sea breaks its back. Having survived several seasons afloat these icy and unforgiving waters, we are lucky that Arnold has taken time to document his artistic impressions of this rare lifestyle and extended us a vicarious glimpse,” says the publisher. ❚
