Summary:The Portuguese filmmaker Rui Xavier (b. Porto, 1974; lives and works in Lisbon) spent two years shadowing the world-renowned photographer Candida Höfer (b. Eberswalde, 1944; lives and works in Cologne). Höfer, who studied with Bernd and Hilla Becher at the Düsseldorf Academy of Arts, is known0for her haunting pictures of libraries, museums, theaters, and opera houses. Xavier's film--a DVD is included with the book--shows the artist as she takes pictures, works in the studio and at home, and prepares exhibitions in far-flung locations including Düsseldorf, London, and São Paulo. Xavier has created a dense and empathetic portrait of the artist; confident in the power of his visuals, he has made a film without words. Reproductions of selected major works by Candida Höfer that appear in the film, a note by her on working with Rui Xavier, an introduction by Herbert Burkert, film stills, and an essay by Xavier shed light on the background and the making of the film as well as the artist's oeuvre.
