Flexible. Condition: New. By the age of four Dave Heath had been abandoned by both of his parents. By the age of fifteen he had lived in a series of foster homes and, finally, in an orphanage.\n\nIn 1947, Heath saw Ralph Crane's photo-essay "Bad Boy's Life" in LIFE Magazine. Struck by the success of how succinctly these pictures connected to a deeply felt shared experience, Heath knew he wanted to become a photographer. Using the orphanage's darkroom, he began to master the mechanics of the medium. Heath drew his influence from W. Eugene Smith and photographers of the Chicago School including Aaron Siskind and Harry Callahan.\n\nIn the early 1960s, working in the streets on North Eastern American Cities, Heath used its inhabitants to capture individual moments in tightly structured compositions that are charged with the importance of their individuality and the seriousness of their situation.\n\nOn speaking about his collection of vernacular photographs Heath said "When I was 25, I had five photographs from my past, snapshots of myself and my foster family, and one of my mother and father, and I tore them up - because I wanted to purify myself, to cleans the background out of my system. And I think now that I shouldn't have done that, because I've collected all these old photographs to replace those five. So in a sense shoes five have generated themselves into thousands. In a way it's like trying to recreate, through these old photographs, a family album of my own for a family I never had. On a simple, kind of emotional level that's my motivation for collecting these photographs. And in the beginning there was all this intense feeling of trying to reclaim from oblivion all these people, all these images of people, which were destined just to disappear." - Dave Health \n\nThis new book reproduces Heath's original prints, many of which only exist as individual work prints, with beautiful precision. \n\nISBN 978-1-913288-48-8\nPages 120\nCover Flexibound / foil stamped \nSize 250 x 200mm.

paperback. Condition: Perfetto (Mint). Prima edizione (First Edition). Fotografie in bianco e nero di Dave Heath. Breve testo dell'Autore in quarta di copertina . Cm 25x20. pp. 120. . Perfetto (Mint). . Prima edizione (First Edition). . All'età di quattro anni Dave Heath era stato abbandonato da entrambi i genitori. All'età di quindici anni aveva vissuto in una serie di case famiglia e, infine, in un orfanotrofio.Parlando della sua collezione di fotografie vernacolari, Heath ha detto:"Quando avevo 25 anni, avevo cinque fotografie del mio passato, istantanee di me e della mia famiglia adottiva, e una di mia madre e mio padre, e le ho strappate - perché volevo purificarmi. E ora penso che non avrei dovuto farlo, perché ho raccolto tutte queste vecchie fotografie per sostituire quelle cinque. Quindi, in un certo senso, quelle cinque si sono generate in migliaia. In un certo senso è come cercare di ricreare, attraverso queste vecchie fotografie, un mio album di famiglia per una famiglia che non ho mai avuto. È questa la motivazione che mi spinge a collezionare queste fotografie, a livello emotivo. E all'inizio c'era questa intensa sensazione di cercare di recuperare dall'oblio tutte queste persone, tutte queste immagini di persone, che erano destinate a scomparire". Book.

Tapa Blanda. Condition: New. 1. A la edad de cuatro años, Dave Heath había sido abandonado por sus dos padres. A la edad de quince años había vivido en una serie de hogares de acogida y, finalmente, en un orfanato.En 1947, Heath vio el ensayo fotográfico de Ralph Crane ?Bad Boy?s Life? en la revista LIFE. Impresionado por el éxito de la forma sucinta en que estas imágenes se conectaban con una experiencia compartida profundamente sentida, Heath supo que quería convertirse en fotógrafo. Usando el cuarto oscuro del orfanato, comenzó a dominar la mecánica del medio.A principios de la década de 1960, trabajando en las calles de las ciudades del noreste de Estados Unidos, Heath usó a sus habitantes para capturar momentos individuales en composiciones estrechamente estructuradas que están cargadas de la importancia de su individualidad y la seriedad de su situación.Hablando de su colección de fotografías vernáculas, Heath dijo: "Cuando tenía 25 años, tenía cinco fotografías de mi pasado, instantáneas mías y de mi familia adoptiva, y una de mi madre y mi padre, y las rompí porque quería purificarme, para limpiar el fondo de mi sistema. Y ahora creo que no debería haber hecho eso, porque he recopilado todas estas fotografías antiguas para reemplazar esas cinco. Entonces, en cierto sentido, los zapatos cinco se han generado a sí mismos en miles. "En cierto modo, es como tratar de recrear, a través de estas fotografías antiguas, un álbum familiar propio para una familia que nunca tuve. En un nivel simple, como emocional, esa es mi motivación para coleccionar estas fotografías. Y al principio había todo este sentimiento intenso de tratar de rescatar del olvido a todas estas personas, todas estas imágenes de personas, que estaban destinadas a desaparecer". - Dave HeathEste Nuevo libro reproduce las impresiones originales de Heath, muchas de las cuales solo existen como impresiones de trabajos individuales, con una hermosa precisión.
