    2 Bände. Folio (33 x 23 cm.). 576 S.; 165 S. mit zahlr. meist farb. Abb. OLn. mit goldgepr. Rücken- u. Deckeltiteln in Orig.-Leinenschuber mit farb. Deckelbild. Koetzle, Fotografen A-Z 29. - Texte in Englisch, Deutsch und Französisch. - "Peter Beard kam 1938 in New York zur Welt, als Sohn einer reichen Familie. Er studierte Kunstgeschichte und arbeitete als Modefotograf; "die Modewelt" war ihm allerdings "zu affektiert", wie er dem SPIEGEL mal sagte. Und doch wurde er Teil des Jetsets, damals, als man noch Jetset sagte. Tanzte im Studio 54, begleitete die Rolling Stones auf Tour, traf sich mit Leuten, die nunmehr in Geschichtsbüchern stehen: Jackie Onassis, Truman Capote, Andy Warhol. Das ist der eine Strang. Der andere Strang führte ihn früh weg aus New York. Als 17-Jähriger reiste er zum ersten Mal nach Südafrika. Er war inspiriert von "Out of Africa", einem Roman der dänischen Schriftstellerin Karen Blixen. Im kenianischen Tsavo-Nationalpark fing er mit seiner Kamera heimlich das Massensterben der Elefanten ein. "The End of the Game", der Band mit den toten Elefanten, machte Beard berühmt. Anfang der Sechzigerjahre entschied er sich, in Kenia zu bleiben. Erst in den Achtzigern zog er zurück nach New York. Die Stränge wurden ein Knäuel" (J. Skrobala in Spiegel Online 25. 05. 2020). - Sehr gutes Exemplar. Sprache: englisch.

    Leather in crate. Condition: Very Good+. First Edition; Production Sample. Color and b&w photos and reproductions; Elephant Folio 23" tall; 616 pages; 2006 Taschen, Cologne. Elephant folio, approximately 20 x 14 in. 616 pp. Full leather with photographic onlay to upper board and gilt spine lettering. An unusual unnumbered and unsigned SAMPLE copy produced in connection with Taschen's deluxe 250-copy Collector's Edition, housed in its fitted velvet-lined wooden shipping crate. Taschen issued the book in a total limitation of 2,500 signed and numbered copies. The first 250 constituted the deluxe Collector's Editions: nos. 1â"125 accompanied by Beard's signed photograph "Fayel Tall" and nos. 126â"250 by "965 Elephants". The remaining 2,250 copies comprised the Art Edition. The deluxe issues were distinguished by their full-leather binding, original signed photograph, wooden stand, and elaborate velvet-lined wooden shipping crate. The present example is a bindery/production SAMPLE, unnumbered and unsigned, with **SAMPLE** prominently stamped to the page-block edges and initial leaf. Of particular interest is its direct provenance: this copy was acquired from a former employee of the bindery responsible for production of the edition, who had been instructed to destroy it after its use as a production sample but instead preserved it. Present are the full-leather Beard volume, original fitted velvet-lined wooden crate, and large portfolio intended to house the original Beard photograph. The original photograph and wooden stand are not present. Leather shows moderate handling and surface wear, principally at the extremities, presumably associated with its use as a production sample and repeated removal from the fitted crate. Photograph portfolio with light handling wear. Book sound and internally clean and well preserved. Wooden crate with exterior rubbing, marks, and expected evidence of handling, storage, and transport. A monumental production among modern photographic monographs, reproducing Beard's African photography, wildlife studies, fashion work, portraits, diaries, and celebrated densely collaged journals on an extraordinary scale. An uncommon production artifact from one of Taschen's most ambitious photographic publications, retaining its full-leather Collector's Edition-format binding, original fitted wooden crate, and photograph portfolio. Unsigned and unnumbered, without the original photograph and wooden stand, as described. E xtremely large and heavy. Please inquire regarding shipping arrangements.

    gebunden. Condition: Neu. Neu -Peter Beard (1938-2020) wurde in New York geboren. Seine erste Kamera bekam der Fotograf und studierte Kunsthistoriker von seiner Großmutter geschenkt. Mit 17 reiste er zum ersten Mal nach Afrika, mit dem Urenkel von Charles Darwin, Quentin Keynes, wo er an einem Dokumentarfilm über Nashörner in Südafrika mitarbeitete. Zurückgekehrt nach New York arbeitete er als erfolgreicher Modefotograf. Nach einem Treffen mit der »Jenseits von Afrika«-Autorin Tania Blixen entschloss sich Beard, wieder nach Afrika zu reisen, um dort zu fotografieren. Beard machte sein Leben auf dem afrikanischen Kontinent zum Gesamtkunstwerk: eine Collage aus Fotografie, Umweltaktivismus und Tagebuch. Diese XL-Ausgabe präsentiert die gesamte Welt des Künstlers - ein Werk, in dem Haute-Couture-Models unter der kenianischen Sonne Giraffen füttern und Elefantenkadaver Zeugnis für die Zerstörung der Natur durch den Menschen ablegen. »Beard führte immer ein Doppelleben. Leben eins fand im tiefsten Afrika statt. Leben zwei auf den Tanzflächen, den Bars und Betten des Sozial-Dschungels, des New Yorker Jetset.« (Der Spiegel) (Text dt., engl., frz.) 770 pp. Deutsch, Englisch, Französisch.

    Condition: Nuevo. Pioneering contemporary artist Peter Beard turned his life in New York and on the African continent into a Gesamtkunstwerk; a collage of photography, ecology, and diary writing. The original limited edition may have instantly sold out, but the book is now back to present the artist?s unique world, a realm of art, science, and beauty. Artist, diarist, collector, and writer Peter Beard (1938-2020) fashioned his life into a work of art; the illustrated diaries he kept from a young age evolved into a serious career as an artist and earned him a central position in the international art world. He collaborated with Francis Bacon and Salvador Dalí, he made diaries with Andy Warhol, worked on books with scientists like Dr. Norman Borlaug, Dr. Richard Laws, and Alistair Graham, and toured with Truman Capote, Terry Southern, and the Rolling Stones?all of whom are brought to life, literally and figuratively, in his work. He delved into the world of fashion for its beautiful women, taking Vogue stars like Veruschka to Africa and bringing new ones back to the U.S. with him. After spending time in Kenya and striking up a friendship with the author Isak Dinesen (Karen Blixen) in the early 1960s, Beard bought 50 acres next to her farm with the stipulation that he would film and write about the land and its flora and fauna. He witnessed the dawn of Kenya?s population explosion, which challenged finite resources and stressed animal populations?including the starving elephants of Tsavo dying by the tens of thousands in a wasteland of eaten trees. So he documented what he saw?with diaries, photographs, and collages. He went against the wind in publishing unique and sometimes shocking books of these works, including The End of the Game. The corpses were laid bare; the facts carefully recorded, sometimes in type and often by hand. Beard used his photographs as a canvas onto which he superimposed multi-layered contact sheets, ephemera, found objects, newspaper clippings that are elaborately embellished with meticulous handwriting, old-master inspired drawings, and often swaths of animal blood used as paint. In 2006, TASCHEN first published the book that has come to define his oeuvre, signed by the artist and published in two volumes. It sold out instantly and became a highly sought-after collector?s item. In the decade since, the monograph has been revived in two smaller versions; but sometimes, bigger is better. Now, the book you haven?t been able to get your hands on is available in one large-format volume. The artist Peter Beard (1938?2020) began taking photographs and keeping diaries from early childhood. By the time he graduated from Yale University, he had developed a keen interest in Africa. Throughout the 1960s and ?70s he worked in Tsavo Park, the Aberdares, and Lake Rudolf in Kenya?s northern frontier. A constant creator, Beard the chronicler photographed, wrote, drew, collaged, and assembled a history of his life experiences and our own. The editors Nejma Beard is Peter Beard?s agent and Executive Director of the Peter Beard Studio. Her spirit and experience are synchronous with Beard?s?having been born and raised in Kenya. This deep familiarity and a devotion to a place and a people forms their unique collaborative relationship. Primary to her work is a deep concern for the future of the world and a commitment to ecologic efforts. She curates exhibitions, art-directs photo shoots, and edits and assists with all Beard publications. David Fahey is co-owner of the Fahey/Klein Gallery, Los Angeles. During his 31-year career in the field, he has collaborated on over 45 fine art photography books. He is the co-vice president of the Herb Ritts Foundation and serves on the Photography Advisory Council for the J. Paul Getty Museum. The authors Owen Edwards has written about photography for more than 30 years for numerous publications including American Photographer, New York Times Magazine, and Smithsonian. Steven M. L. Aronson, a former book publisher, is a writer and editor. He edited and published Peter Beard?s book Longing for Darkness and wrote the T.V. special The End of the Game. He is the author of HYPE and the co-author of Savage Grace. The contributor Ruth Ansel is an award-winning art director known for her innovative design at many of America's top fashion and cultural magazines since the 1960s. Ansel Design Studio (est. 1992) has produced international fashion campaigns and books with photographers including Peter Beard, Richard Avedon, and Annie Leibovitz.
