Thank you to everyone who joined us for the special book launch and signing with Diana Markosian as she discussed her new book Father with fellow photographer Todd Hido at Leica Store San Francisco.
Diana Markosian’s book Father presents the photographer’s journey to another place and another time, where Markosian attempts to piece together an image of a familiar stranger, her long-lost father. The book explores her father’s absence, her reconciliation with him, and the shared emptiness of their prolonged estrangement. The images, made over the course of a decade, take place in her father’s home in Armenia. Father follows her first monograph, Santa Barbara (Aperture, 2020), in which Markosian recreates the story of her family’s journey from post–Soviet Russia to the US in the 1990s.
This event was presented in partnership with Aperture.
Signed copies of Father are now available at Leica Store San Francisco and on our website, grab your copy before they’re gone!
