English Text. Bologna, 2009; bound, pp. 134, ill., col. plates, cm 23,5x35. In the Yard Sale Photographs work, Bartos turns his lens to random arrangements of objects encountered by chance at tag sales, creating lush, "found" still lifes that resonate both formally and metaphorically. Taken at close range from an elevated vantage point, Bartos concentrates on fragments of the stuff relegated to boxes in our garages, revealing their hidden aesthetic potential. A pair of weathered skateboards silhouetted against black asphalt littered with grass clippings becomes a compressed formal abstract composition. Akin to early 20th century photographs that celebrated the industrial gleam of the Machine Age, Bartos' images give dignity to our 21st century castoffs. A close-up of the shimmering coral colored interior of a mid-century suitcase contrasted by a blue rhinestone and white linens within, is one of several photographs that invite the viewer to imagine a personal narrative. Presented in saturated pigment prints, the humble beauty of Bartos' chosen objects becomes monumental. The book is introduced with a story by Raymond Carver. After studying film at New York University, Bartos turned his attention to still photography. A six-month stay in the Ocean Park neighborhood of Los Angeles in the late 1970s provided the setting for his important early series of Southern California streetscapes and interiors, which were published in his 2006 book, Boulevard. His photographs are represented in numerous public collections, including the Museum of Modern Art, New York, the J. Paul Getty Museum, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston.

"Boulevard is a visual tale of two disparate cities: Paris and Los Angeles. In the early seventies, Adam Bartos began to use color photography to document the contemporary urban landscape, infusing his images with a certain quietude and finding composition in even the most random corners of life. He often focused his lens on his native New York, and he published a monumental series of photographs of the modern architecture of the United Nations. In the late seventies, and then again in the early eighties, Bartos traveled to Los Angeles and Paris, taking his camera with him. The two trips would have a strong and lasting impact on his vision, and yet until recently, he had never considered the two cities or bodies of work together. In Boulevard, an intriguing dialogue takes place before our eyes. This is not the L.A. or Paris of postcards. As we venture through the scarcely inhabited hotel rooms, backyards, gas stations, and inevitably, city streets, we are struck by the graphical relationships and the surprisingly similar color palates. There is a magnetic attraction and repulsion between these two photo series and cities polar opposites that, at unexpected moments, converge and suddenly attract. With a preface by Geoff Dyer, whose essays and works of fiction include But Beautiful, Paris Trance, and Out of Sheer Rage. The Ongoing Moment, a book about photography, will be published in October 2005." (from the publisher) Adam Bartos was born in 1953 in New York, where he continues to live and work. Books of his photographs include International Territory: The United Nations, 1945 95, and Kosmos: A Portrait of the Russian Space Age.***************Steidldangin, Göttingen. 2005. Erstausgabe.

Hardcover. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. First Edition. 176 pages. 11-3/8 by 9-3/4. Photo reproductions depicting 'the invisible men and the secret masters behind the Soviet space exploration' -- from the essay. Images printed in color, one per page, sometimes recto only. Notes on the photos are cataloged in a 9-page section. First edition (first printing). Brown cloth bound with a silk bookmarker. Near fine in a near fine dust jacket. Minor edge wear. Inscribed on the title page by Bartos to a former Ford Foundation exec: 'with best wishes, Adam Bartos.'. The Space Race was an exhilirating moment in history, alternately frighten-ing, thrilling, awe-inspiring, and ultimately, sublime. Its most enigmatic element was the competition. The Soviets seemed less technologically sophisticated (at least from the American perspective) but in fact won many of the races: first satellite to orbit the earth; first man in space; first unmanned landings on Mars, Venus, and the Moon; first woman in space; most powerful rockets; and, until its recent fiery death, the most long-lived space station to name but a few. The inherent contradictions of the age--the mixture of technologies high and low, of nostalgia and progress, of pathos and promise--are revealed in Kosmos, Adam Bartos's astonishing photographic survey of the Soviet space program. Bartos' fascination with this subject led him to seek out places like the bedroom where Yuri Gagarian slept the night before his history-making flight into space, located in the Baiknour Cosmodrome, the one-time top-secret space complex in the Kazakh desert. Bartos also takes us inside the cockpit of the Merkur space capsule, used to ferry crew members and supplies to the super-secret Almaz orbital space stations, and behind the changing screens cosmonauts used before being fitted for their space suits at Zvezda, the chief manufacturer of Soviet life-support systems. In total, Kosmos presents over 100 of Bartos's photographs, rich with the incongruities of the history, science, culture, and politics of the Space Age. Professor Svetlana Boym's insightful introduction to the technological and cultural aspects of Soviet space exploration provides a fitting context for the photographs. For anyone interested in the space age, Kosmos is an essential and fascinating portrait.

Foil-stamped clothbound hardcover with dust jacket. 290 x 370 mm. 80 pages. Language: english. Perfect condition! Collector`s copy! "Darkroom charts the physical and psychic terrain of photographic printing rooms while conveying their transition from the realm of pure functionality into historical artifact. Indirect portraits of both producer and product, Bartos` work explores the physical space linking artist to artwork and linking the tools of the medium to the signs of their use. As more darkrooms switch to digital printing or close shop altogether, we become more aware that the tangible elements of darkroom printing may one day be lost. Bartos` recent large-format work documents and explores in equal measure the visual language and ethos of that analogue printing culture before it slips beyond our experience forever. The acrid odour of chemistry, an uncanny stillness hanging in damp air - Bartos records the descriptive aspects and spatial constraints of the darkroom but also visualizes the lab as a site of limitless creative potential, invested with asnmuch aura as a photographic print. Heroic and humbling at the same time, these portraits speak to the individuality of the workspaces and their inhabitants but also to the shared architecture of all darkrooms. Bartos presents us with the perceptual tools to know the darkroom as it is today and to remember it one day as it will have been." (from the publisher) Adam Bartos was born in 1953 in New York, where he continues to live and work. Books of his photographs include International Territory: The United Nations, 1945 95, and Kosmos: A Portrait of the Russian Space Age.***************Steidl, Göttingen. 2011.
