DVD Reviews of What Remains: The Life and Work of Sally Mann
DVD Review: Intelligent exploration of life through art.
Summary: 5 Stars
Sally Mann is one of my art heroes. Mann approaches relatively simple subject matter (such as landscapes, her family & death) & makes them profound through exploration & representation. Mann sees these subjects through a lens (literally & metaphorically) which compels the viewer to reevaluate meaning and thus, hopefully, to grow psychologically and emotionally. In my eyes, this is the ultimate purpose of art.
This documentary presents Sally Mann & her family in intimate terms. The viewer gets a good feeling for whom she is, what motivates her and her style of working process. I highly recommend this for any photographer/artist whom is interested in pushing the limits of their own arts.
DVD Review: untittled
Summary: 5 Stars
Sally Mann is one of the most important photographers of our time, and this dvd is essential to understanding her work as an artist. This dvd deserves 6 stars because in the extras it includes the 30 minute oscar nominated documentary "Blood Ties" that aired on HBO in the early 90's during the "Immediate Family" photos. As well as the new full length doc that takes you through the "What Remains" era and how that concept unfolded from her husbands illness, into the death of her dog, into the suicide of a prisoner on her farm, into the civil war landscapes, into the photos of decaying bodies, into the photos of her children. She really challenges all of our concepts and fears of the subject of death and breaks it down to a beautiful idea of a natural process. I really can't say enough about how important her work is, but this dvd will. All i can say is this is worth your time and money.DVD Review: what remains

DVD Review: absolutely beautiful film
Summary: 5 Stars
The life and work and personality and emotions of Sally Mann are beautifully filmed and evoked, a must to understand her complex, rich, intense personality, her relationship with her children and particularly her husband is deeply touching. Some scenes when she is photographing dead bodies for her show and book What Remains are hard to cope with, but resonate in her artistic , so Southern soul in mixing life and death and love and memory so intensely
Description of What Remains: The Life and Work of Sally Mann
As one of the world's preeminent photographers, Sally Mann creates artwork that challenges viewers' values and moral attitudes. Described by Time magazine as "America's greatest photographer," she first came to international prominence in 1992 with Immediate Family, 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 eponymously titled documentary.Filmed at her Virginia farm, Mann is surrounded by her husband and now-grown children, and her willingness to reveal her artistic process allows the viewer to gain exclusive entrance to her world. Never one to compromise, she reflects on her own personal feelings about mortality 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 glimpse of an eloquent and brilliant artist.
