Synopsis
In 1966 Life magazine assigned famed photographer Gordon Parks to cover Muhammad Ali, the brash young boxing champion. Four years later in 1970, the two came together again for a second feature story in "The Great American Magazine." These encounters framed a critical passage in the career of the controversial heavyweight, whose antiwar and black separatist views had led to widespread vilification in the United States. They also marked a significant moment of transition for Parks, then following up his remarkable success in photojournalism with new projects as an author, filmmaker and composer.
Collaborating on these two stories, Parks and Ali transcended their routine roles as journalist and athlete to make sense of an epoch and the American struggle against racial inequality, in which both were key players. Parks' intimate perspective on Ali during this crucial period is indispensable to understanding the boxer called "the greatest of all time." This book includes an expansive selection of photographs from Parks' original reportage, many never before published, as well as reproductions of his original stories as they appeared in Life magazine.

hardcover. Etat : As New. Prima edizione (First Edition). Volume pubblicato in occasione della mostra tenutasi presso il Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, Kansas City 16 febbraio - 6 luglio 2020. Introduzione di Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. Testi di Gerlad Early, Peter W. Kunhardt Jr., April M. Watson, Julian Zugazagoitia. 115 fotografie in bianco e nero di Gordon Parks. Biografie . Cm 30x26. pp. 216. . Perfetto (Mint). . Prima edizione (First Edition). . Nel 1966 la rivista Life affidò al famoso fotografo Gordon Parks il servizio su Muhammad Ali, il giovane e sfacciato campione di boxe. Quattro anni dopo, nel 1970, i due si riunirono nuovamente per un secondo servizio su "The Great American Magazine". Questi incontri inquadrarono un passaggio critico nella carriera del controverso peso massimo, le cui opinioni contro la guerra e il separatismo nero avevano portato a una diffusa diffamazione negli Stati Uniti. Inoltre, segnarono un momento di transizione significativo per Parks, che a quel punto fece seguire al suo notevole successo nel campo del fotogiornalismo nuovi progetti come autore, regista e compositore. Collaborando a queste due storie, Parks e Ali hanno trasceso i loro ruoli di giornalista e atleta per dare un senso a un'epoca e alla lotta americana contro la disuguaglianza razziale, di cui entrambi erano protagonisti.

Gordon Parks was born into poverty and segregation in Fort Scott, Kansas, in 1912. An itinerant laborer, he worked as a brothel pianist and railcar porter, among other jobs, before buying a camera at a pawnshop, training himself, and becoming a photographer. In addition to his storied tenures photographing for the Farm Security Administration (1941-45) and Life magazine (1948-72), Parks evolved into a modern-day Renaissance man, finding success as a film director, writer and composer. The first African American director to helm a major motion picture, he helped launch the blaxploitation genre with his film Shaft (1971). He wrote numerous memoirs, novels and books of poetry, and received many awards and more than 50 honorary degrees. Parks died in 2006. . N° de réf. du vendeur 11529
