1989viii, 146 pages. Text in English and French. Profusely illustrated with glossy black and white reproductions of photos. "Dutch-born Kryn Taconis has left us as his legacy a body of work that stretches over thirty-five years - from 1944 to 1979. As a member of the Resistance, he cast a special light upon the grave privation of the people of Amsterdam, who were starved by the German occupiers during the winter of 1944-1945. He was later associated with the Magnum agency for ten years during which he proved himself as an independent photographer and displayed his sympathies and his humanist affinities in numerous stories from all over the world. Finally, his twenty years of association with Canadian illustrated magazines such as the Star Weekly gave him the occasion to wield great influence in establishing new standards of quality in Canadian photojournalism." - Preface. Clean and unmarked with moderate wear. Binding sound. A quality copy of this impressive work. Book

réf. 52913Amsterdam: De Appel 1980. Tall quarto 29.5 x 21 cm. Original printed red and white cardstock wrappers; 92 pp. profusely illustrated. Some light soiling and browning to covers interior clean overall very good. A compendium of documentary material published in conjunction with an exhibition which was organized by the Foundation Holland Experimental Film in collaboration with the Foundation De Appel presenting avant-garde film and video-based artworks from Conceptual Action Body and Land Artists mostly Dutch and obscure Eastern European artists including artists hailing from the Czech Republic Hungary Poland and Yugoslavia. The preface to the catalogue reads in part "Foundation De Appel organized an international ten-day art event which took place between 20th-30th of September 1979; it comprised lectures discussions performances installations video film historical documentation and an exhibition of photo works by visual artists 15th-30th of September 1979.For several years Foundation De Appel endeavoured to follow the activities of certain visual artists from East-Germany Czechoslovakia Hungary Poland and Yugoslavia.Several times a year important international art manifestations are organized in Poland and Yugoslavia; many western artists are invited for these meetings. Rarely however avant-garde artists from Central Europe are invited to international art events which are regularly organized in West Europe and the USA. Believing that it was high time to break this one-way traffic we decided to devote part of our 1979 programme to several artists from East-Germany Czechoslovakia Hungary Poland and Yugoslavia." Some of the artists whose work is featured here include: Zoran Belic Jerzy Beres Gabor Body Miklos Erdely Tomimslav Gotovac Agnes Hay Sanja Ivecovic Tomasz Konart Dalibor Martinis Dora Maurer Jozef Robakowski Mladen Stilnovic Endre Tot Jiri Valoch Natalia LL Karel Miler and many others. A scarce work on the 1970's avant-garde in Czechoslovakia Hungary Poland Yugoslavia and East Germany. As of May 2023 OCLC locates six holdings in North American libraries. unknown books

1653réf. 68206Fort New Amsterdam in New Netherland New York City. March 22 1653. Selling a Bowery in New York City in 1653 Carel van Brugge d. 1682 who has signed this document in his official capacity as the Secretary of the High Council despite going by his Dutch name was an Englishman named Charles Bridges who had arrived in New Amsterdam via Curaçao. He came to New Netherland with Stuyvesant in May 1647 and was made Commissary at Fort Orange in November 1647 Commissary of the Provincial Accounts in 1651 and Provincial Secretary and ex officio Vendue Master in 1652. After the English took New Amsterdam he resumed use of his English name. Wilhelmus Hendricksen Beeckman 1623-1707 also came to New Amsterdam with Peter Stuyvesant in 1647 and became the Treasurer of the Dutch West India Company. He served in various official capacities in New Amsterdam including being appointed one of the five original schepens of the city. Cornelisz Claeszen Swits 1610-1655 was the son of Claes Cornelisz Swits 1576-1641 an early Swiss immigrant to New Amsterdam who was killed by a Weckquaesgeek touching off what would become known as Kieft's War and the extermination of the tribe between 1643 and 1645.
