1959Best.-Nr. 419549Guatemala and Mexico 1959. Near Fine. A collection of 79 gelatin silver prints ranging in size from 7" x 7" to 8" x 10" and four smaller 5" x 4" prints by Alma Lavenson collated and housed in 11 handmade paste-paper portfolios. The collection consists of 51 prints taken in Guatemala in seven portfolios and 32 prints taken in Mexico in four portfolios. Each print is captioned by Lavenson on the versos in green ink giving place names and in her smaller hand underneath in blue ink giving additional information. All are in fine condition. Also included is a San Francisco Museum of Modern Art exhibition catalog 1984-85 Inscribed by Lavenson. This portfolio is Lavenson's first book solely devoted to her photography. A remarkable assemblage of images made by the famed California photographer of Guatemalan and Mexican women children and men including several Mayan peoples from various rural regions and towns throughout both countries. The images date from a trip Lavenson made in 1959 during which she also visited her son Albert who was conducting anthropological field research in Chiapas Mexico. Lavenson was a self-taught photographer from the Bay Area whom Edward Weston told to abandon the soft-focus style of the times and adopt the crisp style of the Modernist movement. She took the advice to with such verve that she was invited to participate in a San Francisco gallery show that featured work by Weston's newly formed photo group f/64. The attention- getting show which also featured the work of Ansel Adams Imogen Cunningham and Consuelo Kanaga exposed her work to wide acclaim leading to three solo shows at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art inclusion in Edward Steichen's "The Family of Man" exhibition and showings at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Like many women of the time Lavenson largely set aside her career as a photographer after her marriage in 1933. Lavenson died in 1989 at age 92 just a year after her final solo exhibition at the Baltimore Museum of Art but today is gaining in reputation as an important photographer of the first part of the 20th Century.

Best.-Nr. 16-2750Brooklyn: Brooklyn Academy of Music 1983. . Poster 28 x 22 inches. Next Wave series.Some wrinkling. From the New York Times:By HARLOW ROBINSONPublished: November 20 1983When the opera ''Victory Over the Sun'' received its first performance in St. Petersburg in 1913 the city's artistic elite buzzed with excitement. Tickets were sold out in a day. One drama critic in attendance later noted: ''Scandal lovers from the St. Petersburg demimonde were willing to pay enormous amounts of money just to get into the theater.'' When ''Victory Over the Sun'' returned to the stage 67 years later in 1980 in Los Angeles the public demonstrated the same sort of wild enthusiasm. One ticketless woman in a gesture that would have delighted the opera's eccentric creators is said to have bitten a security guard's finger when he refused to let her into the theater.On Friday New Yorkers will have their first opportunity to see ''Victory Over the Sun'' at the Brooklyn Academy of Music where it is being staged as part of the Next Wave Festival of Contemporary Performance. From the collection of the Russian theater historian Alma Law. Brooklyn: Brooklyn Academy of Music, 1983. unknown
