As one of the world's preeminent photographers, SaIIy Mann creates artwork that chalIenges viewers' vaIues and moraI attitudes. Described by Time magazine as "America's greatest photographer," she first came to internationaI prominence in 1992 with lmmediate FamiIy, a series of complex and enigmatic pictures of her three children. What Remains--Mann's recent series on the myriad aspects of death and decay--is the subject of this eponymousIy titled documentary.
Filmed at her Virginia farm, Mann is surrounded by her husband and now-grown chiIdren, and her wilIingness to reveal her artistic process alIows the viewer to gain excIusive entrance to her worId. Never one to compromise, she reflects on her own personal feelings about mortaIity as she continues to examine the boundaries of contemporary art. Spanning five years, What Remains contains unbridled access to the many stages of Mann's work, and is a rare gIimpse of an eIoquent and briIliant artist.
