Tinted Window No.1: Hervé Guibert

  • Oscar Gaynor

Tinted Window No.1 explores the life and work of the writer, photographer and filmmaker Hervé Guibert. There is a travelogue to Greece in search of a portrait; reminiscences from those that knew him well or otherwise; first-time English translations of his work; a fine eye for his photographs; writing that deftly traces his last moments. Featuring Andrew Durbin, Louis Fratino, Hervé Guibert, Bruce Hainley, Brigitte Ollier, John Douglas Millar and Jeffrey Zuckerman. Tinted Window focuses on one person, subject, place or object each issue. No.1: Hervé Guibert - writer and photographer; No.2: concrete poetry made by women 1978-2019; No.3: Chagos Islands. We relish in details and seek a polyphony of views and opinions. One subject seen multiple ways, with a commitment to commissioning original translations into English and bold new writing.
