1st Printing. 112 pages. Published in 2002. Exhibition monograph, presented as an Artist Book. One of the most beautiful art photography books of our time. Limited Edition of 2500 copies. The first and only edition. Published in a small and limited print run as a hardcover original only. The Limited Edition is now scarce. An austerely elegant production by Ann Hamilton and Sylvia Frohlich: Oversize-volume format in wide oblong shape. Pictorial cloth boards with titles embossed on the cover and spine, as issued. Art by Ann Hamilton. Essays by various contributors. Printed on pristine-white, thick coated stock paper in Germany to the highest standards. Without DJ, as issued. Published on the occasion of the retrospective exhibition of the same name held at the Akira Ikeda Gallery in Taura, Japan from May 21, 2001 through May 18, 2002, lasting more than a full year. Presents Ann Hamilton's "The Picture Is Still". The work of one of the most vital and controversial living artists of our time. It shows Hamilton, the artist-as-elegist, surely one of the rarest in American art, our Christian Boltanski (according to Boltanski himself). "The installations created by Ann Hamilton are as atmospheric as they are intellectually complex, as grandiose and whimsical as they are serious and political. Whether she is employing tons of work clothes, a herd of ostriches, thousands of dollars' worth of pennies, kilometers of typewriter ribbon, loaves and loaves of bread dough or teams of volunteer workers, Hamilton's process-oriented, site-specific environments incorporate viewers, teaching them to use their senses anew. In one of her most recent and spectacular works, which gives its name to this book, the artist inhabited a former torpedo factory at Yokosuka, a symbol-laden place in Japan, used by domestic and American armies for extensive military bases, and hung charcoal rods from the ceiling on strings of different length" (Publisher's blurb). Ann Hamilton trained in textile design and received an MFA from Yale University. While her degree was in sculpture, textiles and fabric have continued to be an important part of her work, which now includes massive installations, photographs, videos, performances, and singular objects. As the American representative at the Venice Biennale in 1999, she addressed the subject of slavery and oppression in America with an installation that used walls studded with Braille. Her show in Japan in 2002 was filled with enormous personal significance for Hamilton, who was born, raised, and continues to spend part of the time in Columbus, Ohio, the hometown of Paul W. Tibbetts. For better or for worse, Tibbetts will be remembered as the pilot who flew the "Enola Gay" (the B29 bomber he named after his mother), and dropped the first atom bomb in Hiroshima on August 6, 1945, an act that Hamilton denounced as a war crime long before many of her fellow Americans are finally seeing it as such. An absolute "must-have" title for Ann Hamilton collectors. This is a copy of the Limited Edition of 2500 copies. This title is a contemporary art photography classic. This is one of few copies of the Limited Edition still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. A rare copy thus. One of the most brilliant American artist/photographers of our time. A fine copy. ISBN 3775712429.…
