Hardcover. Etat : New. he pictures in Ether, Sheikh's first book in colour, were made as a way to honour the experience of death and to try to comprehend its significance. Benares (Varanasi) is one of India's sacred cities, where many Hindus come to die in the belief that they will find salvation. As he walked its streets by night, Sheikh observed sleeping figures, shrouded in blankets, lost to an oblivion that seemed, in that holy city, to offer a simulacrum of death. In watching these ambiguous figures, which hover in the imagination between a dream state, sleep and death, Sheikh recalled his own experience with his dying father and their passage together through his father's final days. He remembered it as an invaluable period of emotional connection with the body and soul of the person he knew and loved, a connection that reached back to his paternal ancestors, who had travelled south from northern India a century before. To lose oneself in sleep is to abandon the senses and leave the way open to a dream state in which mind and body separate. Just as, in death, the soul leaves the physical body behind and takes to the air, becoming ether.

Hardcover. Etat : New. Robert Polidori is known for his large format photographs of habitats and rooms saturated with the traces of human intervention. In EYE and I, he turns the lens around to reveal the portraits of people he has encountered in his work of over thirty years photographing around the world, particularly in the Middle East and India. These instantaneous portraits of mutual recognition reveal the photographed subject and the photographer intersecting with each other in a fleeting gaze of mutual regard.…

1. Aufl. Inspired by a semi-autobiographical book by the mid-20th century German printmaker HAP Grieshaber, I have used his idea to create a story of fifty years as a printmaker. The book includes interviews with my printers and memories of my life around the prints I made at that time. I have made over a thousand prints so far and I am not done yet. There are key images illustrated, and the text attempts to marry the technical with my emotional feeling for the mediums, etching, lithography, woodcut and silkscreen. I have included recipes for variations on intaglio and some stories of my friendships with these gifted artisans who have produced this work.

Buch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - '.with the so-called civilised workers, almost without exception their civilisation was only skin deep.' O. Pirow, quoting South African Prime Minister J. B. M. HertzogFor this book Santu Mofokeng collected private photographs which urban black working and middle-class families in South Africa commissioned between 1890 and 1950, a time when the government was creating policies towards thosedesignated as 'natives'. Painterly in style, the images evoke the artifices of Victorian photography. Some of them are fiction, a creation of the artist in terms of setting, props, clothing and pose - yet there is no evidence of coercion. We believe these images, as they reveal something about how these people imagined themselves. In this work Mofokeng analyses the sensibilities, aspirations and self-image of the black population and its desire for representation and social recognition in times of colonial rule and suppression.The Black Photo Album / Look at Me: 1890-1950 is drawn from an ongoing research project of the University of Witwatersrand in Johannesburg.…

Buch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - Distance and Desire - accompanying the same-titled exhibition in Neu-Ulm - is the first major publication to stage a dialogue between the ethnographic visions of late nineteenth and early-twentieth century African photography and engagements with this imagery by contemporary artists. Presenting an extraordinary range of portraits, albums, postcards, cartes de visite, and books from Southern Africa, as well as recent photography and video art from The Walther Collection, the catalogue includes original thematic essays by leading art historians, anthropologists, and cultural critics.Distance and Desire offers new perspectives on the African archive, reimagining its diverse histories and changing meanings.Distance and Desire investigates typical representations of African subjects, from scenes in nature and romanticized images of semi-nude models, to modern sitters posing in stylized studios, critically addressing the politics of colonialism and the complex issues of gender and identity. Among many diverse topics, the catalogue examines in-depth a series of cartes de visite from the Diamond Fields in Kimberley, the figure of the Zulu, the history of South Africa's prominent studio photographers, A.M. Duggan-Cronin's extensive ethnographic study The Bantu Tribes of South Africa, and the archive of elegant family portraits reproduced by the contemporary artist Santu Mofokeng in The Black Photo Album / Look at Me: 1890-1950. The catalogue also reveals how the heritage of African imagery figures in the practices of contemporary African and African American artists, whose compelling photography and video art reworks the archive through satire or appropriation.…

Hardcover. Etat : As New. Etat de la jaquette : None, As Issued. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 83 pages. Published in 2013. Collection of personal Polaroid photographs, presented as an Artist Book, and as a singular photobook. The latter in a way reminiscent of the ground-breaking "Autobiography" by Sol Lewitt. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only and as part of the Steidl "Robert Frank Project". An austerely elegant production by Robert Frank and Gerhard Steidl: Oversize-volume format. Black leatherette boards with gilt titles embossed on the cover and spine, as issued. The design mimics an actual inventory book. Photographs by Robert Frank. There is no text. Printed on pristine-white, thick uncoated stock paper in Gottingen, Germany to the highest standards. In protective plastic sheet. Without DJ, as issued. Presents Robert Frank's "Household Inventory Record". A new installment in the Series of Robert Frank's visual diaries: Private photographs of home and abroad that look and feel familiar, and disquietingly unfamiliar, at the same time. "Continues the journey into Frank's world and his imagery, showing us snapshots from his travels, of his friends, and everyday curiosities" (Publisher's blurb). It is one of Robert Frank's most intimate books, a rare, privileged peek into his private world, laconically presented as an inventory of "personal effects", whether they be real home furnishings, family members, friends, and the glorious landscapes of Nova Scotia. While looking at the pictures, one feels as though someone, most likely Robert Frank, is looking over one's shoulder, along with us: The Polaroids seem ordinary on the surface, on the one hand, yet abstruse and enigmatic in their meaning and significance, on the other. Robert Frank died on September 9, 2019 at the age of 94 as the greatest photographer of our time. An absolute "must-have" title for Robert Frank collectors. This copy is very prominently, neatly, and beautifully signed in black ink-pen on the title page by Robert Frank. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a photobook classic. As far as we know, this is the only such signed copy of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online, is enclosed within a protective plastic sheet, and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Robert Frank stopped doing public signings a long time ago. Even when he did, they were very few and far between. A rare signed copy thus. Lavishly illustrated with Polaroid reproductions. Three of Robert Frank's books were selected as among the greatest photography books in "The Photobook". At the age of 92, Robert Frank was profiled in 2016 by The New York Times as "the greatest photographer of our time". A fine collectible copy.

Buch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - Berenice Abbott was one of the most versatile photographic artists of the twentieth century and her work has been published and publicized since the beginning of her career in 1925. She is best known for her Paris portraits of the 1920s and her documentation of New York City in the 1930s but, like most great artists, Abbotts reputation has rested on a small portion of her lifes work. For every time one of her most famous photographs has been published there are many others that could have served the same purpose but were not used because they are less well known. In Abbotts case there is an unusually large body of unknown work because during the most potentially creative time of her life, the circumstances of her existence were very complicated, largely due to lack of work and income, particularly between the years 1929 to 35 and 1940 to 1959. Many of the photographs she did manage to create in those years were not sufficiently commercial to attract a publisher and she was financially unable to publicize them on her own, develop a project to its natural conclusion or, in some instances, even undertake a project of interest. The Unknown Abbott attempts to correct this situation and make some of Abbotts outstanding but largely unknown work available to a wider public. Gerhard Steidl had published the two volume Berenice Abbott in 2008 and Documenting Science in 2012. These books are currently out of print but are going to be reissued by Steidl in the near future. Steidl met with the editors Hank ONeal and Ron Kurtz in late January 2011 to discuss future Abbott projects. This was when they began thinking of a series of Abbott books, dealing with various aspects of her career. Hank ONeal and Ron Kurtz have chosen to present five volumes of work, ranging from her earliest photographs in New York City to documents of American cities before the Civil War, vigorous lumberjacks in Californias High Sierra Mountains, the sophisticated bohemia of Greenwich Village as well as the amusements of Daytona Beach. The Unknown Abbott is a very ambitious project that will present hundreds of outstanding Abbott images for the first time. Her reputation is already very secure, but these previously unknown images will further clarify the range of her photographic activity beyond her portraits in Paris, Changing New York and Documenting Science.…

BOUND 32,8 x 26,6 cm. 48 S. mit zahlr. Abb. . Text in ENGLISH Mit einem Text von Paul Fournel. ISBN 9783869305486. That Belgian, he doesn't even leave you the crumbs, he's a cannibal! Christian Raymond In cycle racing there have been some amazing feats, stories of comeback and daring, of victory and tragedy, of personal sacrifice and bad luck ? and then there is the story of the greatest cyclist that ever lived: Eddy Merckx. This extraordinary Belgian notched up an incredible 525 victories in a career that spanned just over thirteen years. No surprise then, that even his teammates nicknamed him The Cannibal. Eddy Merckx was from a different time, a time when professional cyclists raced all year round, from the cold early season classics, to the hot summer grand tours. Today professional bike riders specialise in one event, yet Merckx was a true all-rounder, equally at home in the velodromes of Ghent as on the French Alps. He won all of the major bike races and more; the Cannibal was unique. This photographic collection is unique too, because it is the story of Eddy Merckx as seen by a fan. L?album d?Eddy does not show considered portraits or typical finish line celebrations, but intimate and personal images of Merckx. This book depicts races including the Tour de France and the 1971 World Championships in Barcelona, and shows many of the riders of the time such as Raymond Poulidor, Roger Swerts and Herman van Springel. The origin of the album remains a mystery: all we know about its possible owner is the inscription on the inside cover: Bien sportivement M. Louis LeCouf by Eddy Merckx. 0 g.…

Buch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -Drei Erzähler schreiben zur Jahreswende 1960/61 gleichzeitig drei Bücher und werden so in Vorkriegs-, Kriegs- und Nachkriegszeit Chronisten der 'Hundejahre' unseres Jahrhunderts: Eddi Amsel, das Opfer, Harry Liebenau, der Zeuge, und Walter Matern, der Täter. Mit Hundejahre manifestierte Günter Grass 1963 eindrucksvoll seinen Weltruhm. Selbst fünfzig Jahre nach ihrem Erscheinen hat diese 'dunkle verzweigte Geschichte' nichts von ihrer betörenden Sprachkraft verloren. Mehr noch, die Fabulierlust des Autors wird durch die faszinierenden Radierungen des Künstlers Günter Grass, der diesen komplexen Weltentwurf bis heute für eines seiner reizvollsten Werke hält, nachhaltig unterstrichen. 780 pp. Deutsch.…
