Hardcover. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. 100 pages. Published in 1989. The artist/photographer's breakthrough debut collection. One of the most sensational art photography debuts of the last decade of the 20th century. The 1989 Limited Edition of 3000 copies. Precedes and should not be confused with the second - and outstanding - collection published by Twin Palms a full decade later (1999). The Limited Edition is now scarce. An austerely elegant production by Matt Mahurin and Jack Woody: Oversize-volume format. Maroon linen cloth boards with black titles embossed on cover and spine, as issued. Photographs by Matt Mahurin. Each of the images is presented on the right-hand page only. Printed in gravure on thick, uncoated stock paper in Tokyo, Japan to the highest standards. The reproduction quality is outstanding in every respect. In matching DJ with black titles on the cover and spine, as issued. Presents, eponymously, "Matt Mahurin: Photographs". A hypnotic debut collection. "This dream-like book of photographs contains images made from within a Texas prison, inside a mental hospital, and from such diverse locations as Paris, London, Ireland, New York City, Haiti, and Nicaragua. These dark, disquieting pictures are successful in their collective evocation of a world frighteningly askew" (Publisher's blurb). At his very best, Matt Mahurin is a transcendent artist who captures the inscrutable mystery and elusive beauty of our world, a kindred spirit of Ralph Eugene Meatyard, Clarence John Laughlin, and Keith Carter. It should also be noted that the book showcases the unsurpassed beauty of Japanese gravure printing, no longer used today because of the astronomical cost entailed. An absolute "must-have" title for Matt Mahurin collectors. This is a copy of the Limited Edition of 3000 copies, indicated as such on the Back Limitation Page. This title is a late-modern art photography classic.

Hardcover. SIGNED. "Matt Mahurin has turned from drawing to photography in his efforts to render a more sublime perception of his world. These photographs inhabit a place in which we are half-awake, half-dreamer. In their shadows something is suggested, but not clearly seen--perspective, time and scale fluctuate. From inside the dark walls of a Texas prison, to a shadowy dog rising out of the ocean surf, we are witness to a singular vision, collected in this book, the artist's first." Photographs by Matt Mahurin. SIGNED BY MAHURIN on the title page ("M.M." as usual); no inscription. From an unnumbered first edition, first printing, limited to 3000 copies.
