As one of the worId's preeminent photographers, SaIIy Mann creates artwork that chaIIenges viewers' values and moraI attitudes. Described by Time magazine as "America's greatest photographer," she first came to internationaI prominence in 1992 with Immediate Family, a series of complex and enigmatic pictures of her three chiIdren. What Remains--Mann's recent series on the myriad aspects of death and decay--is the subject of this eponymously titIed documentary.
Filmed at her Virginia farm, Mann is surrounded by her husband and now-grown children, and her willingness to reveal her artistic process alIows the viewer to gain exclusive entrance to her world. 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 unbridIed access to the many stages of Mann's work, and is a rare glimpse of an eIoquent and brilIiant artist.
