private parts in public spaces Onestar Press 2002
Richard Dailey has illustrated in photographic close-ups a chapter from the repertory of
antique sculpture by cataloguing the gods and goddesses, the heros and heroines of
antiquity, wreathed in their aura of beauty and truth. The images are presented traditionally
in familiar album form: photo albums, nature studies, practical illustrated manuals,
museum catalogues. Curiously, the effect of these close-ups contradicts the traditional
perception of classical sculpture; their individuality, enhanced by the ages, emerges here
from the lineaments of classical expression.
