Hardback. Condition: New. Signed by the photographer The signed edition includes a slip signed by the artist and bound into the inside back cover.\n\nFrom 1988 to 1991 Dawoud Bey made a series of portraits of African Americans in the streets of various American cities. Using a large format tripod mounted camera and a unique positive/negative Polaroid film that created both an instant print and a reusable negative, he asked a cross section of the populations of these communities to pose for him, creating a space of self presentation and performance in the streets of the urban environment. As part of every encounter, Bey gave each person a small black-and-white Polaroid print for themselves as a way of reciprocating and returning something to the people who had allowed him to make their portrait. Defying racial stereotypes, the resulting portraits reveal the Black subjects in all of their psychologically rich complexity, presenting themselves openly and intimately to the camera, the viewer, and the world.\n\nIncludes an essay by Greg Tate.\n\n"I think of Bey's work as a nod to the noda gesture of grace and familiarity, made from a respectful distance. His subjects know it when they see it." The New Yorker\n\n"In the seemingly simple gesture of photographing Black subjects in everyday life, [Bey] helped to introduce Blackness in the context of fine art long before it was trendy, or even accepted." The New York Times\n\n"Dawoud Bey has critically reimagined photography's social and political potential. through his collaborative portraits of under- and misrepresented communities." Artforum\n\n"These portraits attest to the power of 'the Black gaze' how Blackfolk's eye-to-eye looking-back game can meet any righteous or even reckless eyeballing judgment the world might bring with an equal and opposing optical Super-Kryptonian heat-visioned (and haute-visioned) force" Greg Tate, in Street Portraits\n\nEmbossed hardback with two tip-ins\n24 x 28.5cm, 120 pages\n\nISBN 978-1-913620-10-3.

hardcover. Condition: Ottimo (Fine). Saggio di Greg Tate. Fotografie in bianco e nero di Dawoud Rey . Cm 28,5x24. pp. 120. . Ottimo (Fine). . Prima edizione firmata dall'Artista su piccolo tassello inserito in fondo al volume (First Signed Edition with a slip signed by the artist and bound into the inside back cover). . Dal 1988 al 1991 Dawoud Bey ha realizzato una serie di ritratti di afroamericani per le strade di varie città americane. Utilizzando una fotocamera montata su un treppiede di grande formato e una pellicola Polaroid positiva / negativa unica che creava sia una stampa istantanea che un negativo riutilizzabile, ha chiesto in modo trasversale alla gente di varie comunità di posare per lui, creando uno spazio di autopresentazione e performance nelle strade dell'ambiente urbano. Come parte di ogni incontro, Bey ha regalato a ciascuna persona una piccola Polaroid in bianco e nero per ricambiare e restituire qualcosa alle persone che gli avevano permesso di fare il loro ritratto. Sfidando gli stereotipi razziali, i ritratti risultanti rivelano i soggetti neri in tutta la loro complessità psicologicamente ricca, presentandosi apertamente e intimamente alla telecamera, allo spettatore e al mondo. Prima edizione firmata dall'Artista su piccolo tassello inserito in fondo al volume (First Signed Edition with a slip signed by the artist and bound into the inside back cover). Book.

The First Edition is now scarce. A brilliant production by MACK: Oversize-volume format. Pale-gray cloth boards with photographic reproduction pasted in front and black titles embossed on the cover and spine, as issued. Photographs by Dawoud Bey.

The reproduction quality is outstanding in every respect. Without DJ, as issued. Presents Dawoud Bey's "Street Portraits". The definitive presentation of a most important body of work, in one handsome volume. "From 1988 to 1991, Dawoud Bey made a series of portraits of African-Americans in the streets of various American cities. Using a large-format tripod-mounted camera and a unique positive/negative Polaroid film that created both an instant print and a reusable negative, he asked a cross-section of the populations of these communities to pose for him, creating a space of self-presentation and performance in the streets of the urban environment. As part of every encounter, Bey gave each person a black-and-white Polaroid print of themselves as a way of reciprocating and returning something to the people who had allowed him to make their portrait. Defying racial stereotypes, the resulting portraits reveal the Black subjects in all of their psychologically rich complexity, presenting themselves openly and intimately to the camera, the viewer, and the world" (Publisher's blurb). An absolute "must-have" title for Dawoud Bey collectors. This copy is very boldly and beautifully signed in black ink-pen on the half-title page by Dawoud Bey. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on the tiny bookplate that the publisher issued during the 2021 pandemic, which prevented the artist from signing copies in person. It comes with a frame-able 6 X 8 inch Souvenir Portrait (of a young African-American couple), which appears on Page 73. This title is a great collection. As far as we know, this is the only such title-page signed copy (with Souvenir Portrait) of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. A rare signed copy thus. Lavishly illustrated with black-and-white plates, 1 Souvenir Portrait. One of the most brilliant American photographers of our time. A fine collectible copy.
