Articles liés à Ray's a laugh a reader
Synopsis
In 1996, a book of photographs by an unknown young British photographer was launched on to the London contemporary art market to immediate popular and critical success. The pictures were taken within the claustrophobic, chaotic interior of a Birmingham council flat where the photographer’s father, Ray, an alcoholic, lived with Liz, his sedentary and occasionally violent mother, and his younger brother Jason. For the public, including cultured, art-loving viewers, the pictures were a shock: more intimate, more personal, more oppressive than the well-meaning photojournalistic study of working-class poverty to which they were accustomed. Some saw them as a betrayal – exposing unsuspecting family members to potential humiliation – but from Richard Billingham’s point of view they made moral judgements and had no social or political purpose. He had taken them as reference images for his painting, and their lives as artworks were as much a result of the interventions of other editors and gallerists as of Billingham’s own intentions. This reader traces the history of a body of work which remains as vital and provocative as on its first release, and whose story tells us much about the workings of art, publishing, and the politics of dissemination. Editor Liz Jobey charts the history in a new essay drawing on interviews with Billingham and all the primary protagonists of the work’s emergence, including Michael Collins, Julian Germain, and Paul Graham. This is followed by an extensive selection of conversations and essays from 1996 to the present day, by writers including Charlotte Cotton, Gordon Burn, Lynn Barber, and Jim Lewis. This book coincides with the release of a new edition of Ray’s a Laugh restoring Billingham’s original vision for the book. Purchase Ray's a Laugh here.

paperback. Etat : New. Prima edizione (First Edition). Testi di Liz Jobey, con contributi di Michael Collins, Julian Germain, Paul Graham, Charlotte Cotton, Gordon Burn, Lynn Barber e Jim Lewis. Fotografie a colori di Richard Billingham . Cm 19,5x12,5. pp. 160. . Nuovo (New). . Prima edizione (First Edition). . Nel 1996, un libro di fotografie di un giovane fotografo britannico sconosciuto è stato lanciato sul mercato dell'arte contemporanea di Londra con un immediato successo di pubblico e di critica. Le immagini sono state scattate all'interno di un appartamento popolare di Birmingham, claustrofobico e caotico, dove il padre del fotografo, Ray, alcolizzato, viveva con Liz, la madre sedentaria e a volte violenta, e il fratello minore Jason. Per il pubblico, compresi gli spettatori colti e amanti dell'arte, le immagini furono uno shock: più intime, più personali, più opprimenti del benintenzionato studio fotogiornalistico sulla povertà della classe operaia a cui erano abituati. Alcuni le hanno viste come un tradimento, esponendo gli ignari membri della famiglia a una potenziale umiliazione, ma dal punto di vista di Richard Billingham esse esprimevano giudizi morali e non avevano alcuno scopo sociale o politico. Le aveva prese come immagini di riferimento per la sua pittura e la loro vita come opere d'arte era il risultato degli interventi di altri editori e galleristi, oltre che delle intenzioni di Billingham stesso.Questa lettura traccia la storia di un'opera che rimane vitale e provocatoria come alla sua prima uscita e la cui storia ci dice molto sul funzionamento dell'arte, dell'editoria e della politica di diffusione. La curatrice Liz Jobey ne traccia la storia in un nuovo saggio che si avvale di interviste a Billingham e a tutti i principali protagonisti della nascita dell'opera, tra cui Michael Collins, Julian Germain e Paul Graham. Segue un'ampia selezione di conversazioni e saggi dal 1996 a oggi, scritti da scrittori come Charlotte Cotton, Gordon Burn, Lynn Barber e Jim Lewis. Questo libro coincide con l'uscita di una nuova edizione di Ray's a Laugh che ripristina la visione originale di Billingham. N° de réf. du vendeur bc_235253
