Synopsis
In this two-volume set, two artists and two writers explore the concept of the “model city” through the lens of New Haven, Connecticut. This collaboration grew out of a 2013 joint residency at the Yale University Art Gallery by acclaimed photographers Jim Goldberg (b. 1953) and Donovan Wylie (b. 1971). In Candy, Goldberg uses Super 8 film stills, images of New Haven’s urban landscape, Polaroid portraits, and collaged archival material to create a layered reflection on 20th-century American cities that the artist calls a “photo-novel.” A Good and Spacious Land, with photographs by Wylie, examines topographic changes resulting from the construction of the I-95/I-91 highway interchange in New Haven and connects a contemporary American interpretation of the “promised land” to the underlying biblical narrative. The accompanying text in both volumes includes narratives woven throughout the images as well as essays reflecting on the photographs’ symbolism, social import, and historical contexts.

Hardcover. Etat : New. 1st Edition. Jim Goldberg & Donovan Wylie's Candy/A Good and Spacious Land | Published by the Yale University Art Gallery in 2017 - SOLD OUT and now OUT OF PRINT | RARE! NEW, UNOPENED and SEALED in publisher's original shrinkwrap. | NOTE: All images are of actual item for sale. | In this two-volume set, two artists and two writers explore the concept of the "model city" through the lens of New Haven, Connecticut. The collaboration grew out of a 2013 joint residency at the Yale University Art Gallery by photographers Jim Goldberg and Donovan Wylie. In Candy, Goldberg, a New Haven native, uses Super 8 film stills, images of New Haven's urban landscape, annotated Polaroid portraits, and collaged archival materials to create a photo-novel about the trajectory of 20th-century American cities. A Good and Spacious Land, with photographs by Irish-born Wylie, chronicles the changes to New Haven's topography during the construction of a massive highway interchange, offering connections between a contemporary American interpretation of the "Promised Land" and the underlying biblical narrative. Each volume includes text by Christopher Klatell woven throughout the images and a concluding essay by Laura Wexler that reflects on the photographs' symbolism, social import, and historical contexts. Candy/A Good and Spacious Land showcases two gifted and renowned photographers branching out in new formal, narrative, and conceptual directions. | 2017 Best Photography Books of the Year, Photo-Eye magazine | Goldberg wants New Haven to be both his city and any city, and to accomplish that dual ambition he made pictures large and small, blurry and juicy with detail .
