Captivating and sincere, her diaristic work is imbued with the vitality and raw spirit of American youth. Her subjects are photographed at parties, art openings, parks and in apartments with their faces filling the majority of the image frames. They share an intimate gaze that stares directly back at the lens, framed by a variety of hair, makeup, piercings and skin tones.\u003cbr\u003eTomanova grew up in the Czech Republic and since moving to the United States in 2010 she has used photography to capture her feelings of displacement and evolving sense of belonging in America. Taken together, Tomanova's series of self-portraits and youth photography reflect her introspective look into issues of identity and isolation.\u003cbr\u003eAs photographer Ryan McGinley writes in his introduction to \u003ci\u003eYoung American\u003c\/i\u003e, \"This is a future free of gender binaries and stale old definitions of beauty. In Marie's world people can just simply be. I wish all of America's youth culture looked like Marie's photos of downtown, diverse and inclusive.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 176\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.8 x 10.1 x 10.6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 21, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51767426154784,"sku":"9783775750868","price":44.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/04f4e7fa523375bd03b8e31f8db58314.webp?v=1780310574","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/marie-tomanova-new-york-new-york-hardcover","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
