Jacqueline Hassink: The Power Book
Edited by Frits Gierstberg. Text by Els Barents.
Since 1993, Jacqueline Hassink has been using photography to work methodically and precisely with the themes of globalization and economic power. Her first major series, The Table of Power (1993-95) involves photographs of the boardroom tables of Europe's 40 largest multinationals. Other series include Female Power Stations: Queen Bees (1996-2000), about the business and domestic environments of the world's leading women executives, and Car Girls (2002-07), about the manifestations of power in the world of global car fairs. The Power Book, the first survey of Hassink's photography, presents the best of her photographs from America, Europe, the Middle East and Japan in chronological order and accompanied by more than 100 pages of notebook pages and sketches, illuminating the thinking behind the work.
