From The Land of Miracles Fran Undrens Land (Swedish)Dalla Terra Dei Miracoli (Italian)Wendy Sue Lamm"It is hard not to see these truly intense images as a powerful metaphor for the negative forces that tenaciously block the road to peace - a peace that would be a great sign not only for the Middle East, but also for the whole world."Giancarlo Pauletto, Curator, Museum of Modern Art, Pordenone, Italy"Wendy Sue Lamm's art persuades you to ask yourself what or who comes along after those pictures ... she has managed to capture reality in a constantly unreal situation ... clearly a sign of a very alert subconscious." Andrea Jacchia, Il Diario, Italy"THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: In essence, this book documents the impact of the peace process on daily life in Israel and the Palestinian territories. But Lamm's scope is much larger. Her complex compositions and use of color make this less a documentary project than a personal journey." -David Schonaur, AMERICAN PHOTO "Nominated for BEST PHOTO BOOK, 2005 Scandinavian Book Fair, Gothenberg, Sweden." - (SFF) SWEDISH PHOTOGRAPHER'S ASSOCIATION"Normally it is like this: either the photographs show the dramatic story; the recorded event. Or else, the photographs are the personal feelings retold. Content or form - Wendy Sue Lamm's pictures are both."- - Johan Ehrenberg, ETC (Sweden)"Color explodes from these imaginative and intelligent photographs. Usually I am skeptical towards this kind of spectacular color photography, but Wendy Sue Lamm does not fall into the trap of 'effect seeking'. [Of the before mentioned books] this is the one closest to my heart."- Torkel Rasmusson, FOTOGRAFISK TIDSKRIFT- (Sweden)"Life is threatened here [in her pictures], but pulsates stronger than ever. She does not explain, but stresses with her forceful presence the powers that are in movement. And that she even manages to look at this chaos with tongue -in-cheek is evident both in the pictures and through her introduction."- Eva Dandanelle, TRELLEBORG'S ALLEHANDA- (Sweden)
