About this Item
Bw-photographic wraps with orange spine. 96 pages with 75 photo reproductions. "Our particular exploration of vernacular photography began with the ideas that developed into the exhibition In the Vernacular: everyday photographs from the Rodger Kingston Collection, on view at the Boston University Art Gallery from November 5, 2004 to January 23, 2005. The exhibition was the first to highlight fully the exceptional breadth and variety of the Rodger Kingston Collection. Since the 1970s, Kingston has assembled a vast collection of visually striking images, primarily by anonymous photographers . This publication includes an even smaller selection of 70 key images . In making our selections to signify the many types of photographs at play in our everyday existence, we were able to pick particularly rich and engaging examples. The types of images and objects reproduced will be familiar to the contemporary viewer: snapshots, wedding photographs, news and advertising images, family pictures, travel albums, school portraits, pin-ups, calendars, identification badges, photo buttons, and even a photographic bandana."--Preface. VG+ but art school ex-lib. with usual marks; covers heat-sealed in plastic. Seller Inventory # 158710
