Prima ed. americana First American edition. Libri fotografici 1 Parr Badger 2004 Parr Martin Badger Gerry The Photobook: A History I. London Phaidon 2004. ''La vera unicità del mezzo fotografico consiste nella sua assoluta e incondizionata oggettività''. A tale affermazione divenuta il manifesto della fotografia modernista il fotografo Paul Strand rimase sempre fedele soprattutto nella produzione di libri che illustravano popoli e Paesi cui si dedicò dopo la seconda guerra mondiale. Uno dei più memorabili è ''Tir a' Mhurain: Outer Hebrides'' nome gaelico per l'isola di South Uist ovvero the Land of Bent Grass. Il volume le cui bellissime fotografie in bianco e nero furono scattate nell'isola che dà il titolo al libro oltre che a Benbecula ed Eriskay ha un risvolto politico. Strand fotografo marxista controllato dall'FBI sbarcò sull'isola proprio mentre si andavano conducendo sondaggi segreti per l'utilizzo del luogo come base missilistica americana. Strand indignato concepì in parte Tir a' Mhurain come protesta contro il militarismo aggressivo statunitense. Il fotografo inoltre insistette per stampare il libro a Leipzig Germania dell'Est adducendo motivi tecnici più che politici ovvero l'esistenza di uno speciale processo di stampa disponibile unicamente dall'altra parte della cortina di ferro. Il libro venne bandito negli USA a meno che le copie importate recassero il timbro ''stampato in Germania occupata dall'URSS''. Clausola che Strand ovviamente non avrebbe mai accettato.

ref. 93748New York Aperture Foundation 2002. 4° 125 S. zahlr. Abb. OLwd. mit OU. Kleiner Fleck a. einer S. tadell. Second edition. Schweiz- Tir a'Mhurain is a collection of photographs that reflects the impressions gathered by Paul Strand and his wife during their 3-month visit to the Hebrides in 1945. Juxtaposing people and landscape Strand's beautifully sequenced photographs depict the perfect complicity he saw between nature and habitation in their wild terrain. Whether it is a view of the rocks and the sea or a grinning shepherd boy; scuddling clouds hanging over seaside house or the wrinkled face of an old lady framed by a knitted shawl Strand's images transcend the ephemeral. This extended portrait captures the essence and complexity of a singular place. As title included in Parr - Badger The Photobook Vol. I 010 New York, Aperture Foundation, 2002 unknown
