FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - Flawless copy brand new pristine never opened -- 132 pp. ; 57 illus. -- with a bonus offer--; Family man optician avid reader and photographer Ralph Eugene Meatyard created and explored a fantasy world of dolls and masks in which his family and friends played the central roles on an ever-changing stage. His monograph The Family Album of Lucybelle Crater published posthumously in 1974 recorded his wife and family posed in various disquieting settings wearing masks and holding dolls and evoking a penetrating emotional and psychological landscape. The book won his work critical acclaim and has been hugely influential in the intervening decades. Dolls and Masks opens the doors on the decade of rich experimentation that immediately preceded the production of his final opus The Family Album of Lucybelle Crater. Published to coincide with an exhibition at the Art Institute of Chicago this handsome book presents more than 70 never-before-seen works from the Meatyard Archive greatly expanding our understanding of Meatyard's elusive and captivating genius. Writer and historian Eugenia Parry and curator Elizabeth Siegel contribute essays that set the stage for this foray into the unknown work of one of the last century's most intriguing photographers. Ralph Eugene Meatyard 1925-1972 attended Williams College as part of the Navy's V12 program in World War II. Following the war he married became a licensed optician and moved to Lexington Kentucky. When the first of his three children was born Meatyard bought a camera to make pictures of the baby. Photography quickly became a consuming interest. He joined the Lexington Camera Club where he met Van Deren Coke under whose encouragement he soon developed into a powerfully original photographer. Meatyard's work is housed at the Museum of Modern Art George Eastman House in Rochester New York Smithsonian Institution and many other important collections. . 2011. 1934435333 .

VG- DJ fits loosely on book and one corner is peeling slightly; dj also has light wear to top edge; few marks and labels and pocket as ex-library; otherwise clean and tight. White & color illus. boards brown & illus. dust jacket 132 pp. BW & color illus.; weighs 3 lbs. Considers the life and work of British-born photographer Adam Fuss b. 1961. "Like an eighteenth-century experimenter Fuss utilizes organic and raw materials in an unusual approach revealing spiritual and emotional process. . This book the first major monograph of the artist's work is certain to be an important contribution to current discussions of photography's past and the question of its future." dj This self-titled book is about life death and various cultural and personal views of spirituality. Much like an autobiography in words and pictures the book catalogues Fuss's progression as he explores the world around him while questioning what it means to "exist." The book starts out with a biography of Fuss's life providing the viewer with an outline of his interests in the natural and spiritual worlds dating back to his childhood. As his ideas develop he confronts photography's "problem" -inextricable attachment to realistic representation- by challenging it with his desire to "capture and keep an object's mysterious self-inscription." The results are the 57 plates located in the last section of the book. Using organic and raw materials such as humans and animals flowers and plants water stained glass from churches and light alone Fuss inscribes their living energies onto the light sensitive paper by use of time and a stroboscopic flash. The universe conscious versus the unconscious chaos versus harmony representations of the soul's journey and the awareness of eternal return can all be seen throughout these photograms. From abstract expressionism and surrealism to pure documentation Fuss's unique methodology refers to past masters while revealing his spiritual and emotional process as a journey to discover the essence of natural forms. Adam Fuss has emerged as one of the bold and truly creative artists utilizing photography today. Fuss's photograms clearly break from those of his predecessors Man Ray Moholy-Nagy and Talbot and while striking a chord of homage the images redefine how and what we see in pictures viscerally and intellectually.
