I Went to the Worst of Bars Hoping to Get Killed. But All I Could Do Was to Get Drunk Again - Couverture souple
Synopsis
Con 43 fotografie a colori dienbsp,Ciàran Óg Arnold . 8vo pp.76 Brossura (wrappers) Nuovo (New) Il libro è il vincitore del First Book Award 2015, premio istituito dall'editore Mack e Media Space, per supportare la pubblicazione di fotografi ancora inediti. I went to the worst of bars hoping to get killed, titolo preso da "The Suicide Kid" di Charles Bukowski, è una sorta di diario che segue le tracce di uomini invisibili lungo vicoli ridotti ad urinatoi e dentro bar semideserti. Il fotografo accompagna i cercatori di oblio, le loro facce catturate tra l'estasi e l'apatia, le loro bocche che inseguono il torpore dell'ebbrezza. Si tratta di Ballinasloe, una città in arenaria sul fiume Suck nell'angolo più orientale di Galway, in Irlanda, vista attraverso gli occhi di un nativo, Ciarán Óg Arnold.

Soft cover. Etat : As New. 1st Edition. In as new softcover book in publisher's original wrap - "I went to the worst of bars hoping to get killed. but all I could do was to get drunk again" is a diary of sorts, following invisible men, down piss alleyways and into empty bars. The photographer accompanies the seekers of oblivion, their lopsided faces caught between ecstasy and apathy, their mouths chasing the numbness of inebriation. This is Ballinasloe, a sandstone town on the River Suck in the easternmost corner of Galway in Ireland, seen through the eyes of a native, Ciarán Og Arnold. Within the rabble, Arnold trails after the cast-offs, invisible men who spend their time in murky corners, choosing to do nothing but drift and drink. Ballinasloe is a mouth; in Irish, mouth of the ford, mouth of the crowds. "We claim to hate it here", writes Arnold, "but the truth is that we choose to stay, hiding from reality, drowning in drink and wanting to be left alone as we await whatever fate is in store." Over the years, Ballinasloe has become a ghost town, its immobile economy holding back only the indifferent. Its empty clubs are the ordinary voids of an orthodox escapism, the unvarying nightly vocation that is also creeping annihilation. The town is haunted by the absence of those unseeable others, who have also departed - the suicide kids of Charles Bukowski's poem, from which the book's title is taken. Ciarán Og Arnold (b. 1977) is an Irish photographer who studied at the University of Ulster (MFA Photography, 2012). His work was included in 'An Irish View' at Rencontres d'Arles in 2009, and featured in Source magazine. As winner of the 2015 First Book Award, his book was published by MACK, and the work exhibited at Media Space, London. This is Arnold's first book. N° de réf. du vendeur PHO_03337
