I feel as if the world can t be like it is. It seems full of finished works of art. Lynne Cohen
Nothing is Hidden features both well-known and recent unpublished works by acclaimed Canadian photographer Lynne
Cohen, beginning with images from the early 1970s. The book shows the consistency and depth with which she has
mined her chosen theme of uninhabited domestic and institutional interior spaces. Depicting formally and not so formally
arranged uncanny interiors, Cohen's photographs are sometimes wryly humorous, sometimes bleak, and frequently
both. Her vision is informed by a profound feeling for the mystery in the ordinary, what is on the surface but out of sight.
This is the first in a series of annual publications to be published by Steidl celebrating the winner of the Scotiabank
Photography Award, Canada's largest contemporary photography award for an established Canadian artist. Scotiabank
is a leader among Canadian corporations and internationally for its charitable donations and philanthropic activities.
The award was established by photographer Edward Burtynsky with Jane Nokes of Scotiabank.
Lynne Cohen, born in 1944 in the US and living in Canada since 1973, has been photographing public and private
interiors for the past four decades. She has exhibited extensively and has held major retrospectives in Canada, France
and Switzerland. Cohen s books include Occupied Territory (1988), No Man's Land (2001), Camouflage (2005) and
Cover (2009). She has received many awards, including the inaugural Scotiabank Photography Award (2011) and the
Governor General's Award in Visual and Media Arts (2005).
