Vorwort
Jacqueline Roberts ~ A Rare SurpriseI am possessed of and by a seemingly limitless hunger for new art. I scurry around museums,galleries, book stores and, most recently, the internet in a perpetual quest forthe unexpected perspective, for wisdom in new wave lengths in photographic art. Thedigital age is of course fecund with altered work but all too often its differences embracecleverness or mere novelty which strike me, personally, as water too shallow tobe considered part of the deeper seas of lasting art. But once in a while, I am surprised.I first saw Jacqueline Roberts work about six years ago on a vast and vastly mediocrephotography website which I was showing to a friend as an illustration of the manifestills of the digital age. But when I came across her work purely by accident, it stoppedme dead as it in no way conformed to the dimensions of my dyspeptic complaint. Thechildren depicted were age two or three and thus the work did not entirely escape thesentimentality with which we observe the very young and innocent. But the imageswere so beautifully made and composed that I was smitten on the instant. I scribbled aquick e-mail of interest and congratulations to Jacqueline to which she replied politely.And, for four years, that was that.Then about two years ago our paths crossed again and I was reintroduced to an opuswhose scale and ambition had grown dramatically. References to art and cultureabounded, drawn on the evolving surfaces of Jacqueline s startlingly photogenic triplets.Every single image was at once rich in reference while being at the same time astunning portrait of a modern child. From an image steeped in irony of her daughter,Malen, seemingly dressed for church holding a prayer book and rosary-which infact are bells and a Nintendo computer game-to the lovely reverence to the Spanishpainter, Diego Velázquez-Malen in Disney dress dropped into the painted ground ofVelázquez s Las Meninas -the work is fiercely intelligent and visually arresting.And what is still more exciting is that Jacqueline is as of yet young in this work. Prolificto a rare degree, her aesthetic seems to coruscate and refine minute by minute. Thusyou should all understand that the engaging surprise of this, her very first book, ismost importantly understood as a promise of great weight-a promise of much moreto come. Spanish, raised in Paris, living in Germany with a Welsh husband who worksacross the river in Luxembourg, Jacqueline is a true citizen of modern Europe. The factthat she speaks more languages than I can count is finally no surprise. She has much to say. I for one have become and will remain an ardent listener.Jock Sturges / Seattle 2012mehr
