OM JAG HADE FYRA DROMEDARER by Gerry Johansson
スウェーデン人フォトグラファー、ゲリー・ヨハンソン（Gerry Johansson）の作品集。
本書は、2008年に撮影された写真を通じて、モンゴルの首都ウランバートルを見つめる作品集である。遊牧の伝統、旧ソビエト連邦の歴史、急速な都市の変化によって形づくられたこの街は、映画監督のクリス・マルケル（Chris Marker）による、この地をめぐる捉えがたい結びつきに促された旅の舞台となった。マルケル自身も繰り返し語ったとされる、この地で生まれたという説がその発端にあるが、出生地としてはパリのベルヴィルも挙げられている。
作者の写真は、異なる時代や暮らしのあり方が並び立つ街に目を向ける。作者の制作のなかでは珍しいカラーで撮られた写真は、変容のただなかにある街の静かな矛盾を明らかにしている。
Gerry Johansson (b. 1945, Swedish) Om jag hade fyra dromedarer is a study of Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia’s capital, photographed in 2008. The city, shaped by nomadic heritage, Soviet history, and rapid urban change, became the setting for a journey prompted by Chris Marker’s elusive connection to the place — the notion, repeated even by Marker himself, that he was born there, although Belleville in Paris has also been named as his birthplace.
Johansson’s photographs look at a city where different eras and ways of life exist side by side. In color, a rare departure within his practice, the images reveal the quiet contradictions of a city in transformation.
