Australian artist Bill Henson is a passionate and visionary explorer of
twilight zones, of the ambiguous spaces that exist between day and night,
nature and civilization, youth and adulthood, male and female. His
photographs of landscapes at dusk, of the industrial 'no-man's land' that
lies on the outskirts of our cities, and of androgynous girls and boys adrift
in the nocturnal turmoil of adolescence are painterly tableaux that continue
the tradition of romantic literature and painting in our post-industrial age.
Were it not for Henson's primary, almost devotional need to elicit empathy
for his troubled human subjects, there's a feeling that nothing would
prevent the black in his photographs from completely absorbing his
attention and extinguishing his work.
