I first wrote about Paris Visone’s compelling photographs in 2010, in particular, work from her series, Gender Roles and Appearance. She had spent six years documenting family and that focus has remained as part of her ever-expanding photography practice. Happily, Peanut Press Books has just released a monograph of a broad range of her personal and professtional work, Paris Visone For Real. Including a foreword by Cig Harvey, this debut book features photographs of family, friends and rock stars. “For Real presents intimate portraits of famous musicians and Visone’s own family, blurring the lines between private life, fame, and public persona. In her photographs, Visone portrays her family and friends as rock stars while presenting renowned rock musicians with the intimacy of friends and family. Which one of her subjects is a public figure and which is her sister, cousin, or mother? Visone makes it difficult to tell as she treats every subject equally with respect and love.”
