Maurice van Es is a fine artist exploring the photographic medium. In the eight books gathered under the title Now will not be with us forever, he deals with photography’s intrinsic dimension: seizing a moment that will never return. He focuses on his closest surrounding environment: his family and the familiar, and transcending it ever so subtly… Subjects like his young brother departing to school every morning, his grandfather putting on a pullover, the details of an interior (carpet, blanket), motifs on a garment or repeated views of his father’s car as he waits for him at the station, take on a troubling poetic and plastic dimension.
