STORYVILLE-PORTRÄTS Fotografien aus dem Red-Light-District von New Orleans, um 1912. (Großer Fotobildband) studio dumont, DuMont Buchverlag Köln, 1. Auflage 1978, ERSTAUSGABE, O- Leinen mit Schutzumschlag, ca. 60 Seiten. Quartformat (ca. 28,4 x 24,3 cm). Umschlag etwas gerändert und innen gebräunt, sonst gut. (Bekannt wurde Bellocq mit seiner Fotoserie Storyville Portraits , die um 1912 entstand und Fotos von Prostituierten des Vergnügungsviertels von New Orleans Storyville zeigt. Auf einigen wenigen Akten tragen die Modelle Masken , die ihre Identität verbergen. Viel öfter dagegen wurden die Gesichter auf der Negativplatte zerkratzt und damit unkenntlich gemacht. Auch dies gehört zu den Rätseln, die Bellocqs Leben und Arbeiten aufgeben. Denn die Anonymität der Modelle wurde damit keineswegs gewahrt. Auf anderen, nicht zerstörten Fotos blieben sie erkennbar. Der Grund dafür, warum die Fotos gemacht wurden, liegt im Dunkel. Bellocq selbst hatte sie weder veröffentlicht noch, so ist zu vermuten, zur Veröffentlichung vorgesehen und nur engsten Freunden gezeigt. Der amerikanische Fotograf Lee Friedlander erwarb die 89 Glasnegativplatten aus Bellocqs Nachlass erst knapp zwanzig Jahre später, 1966 vom Kunsthändler Larry Bronstein und fertigte einige Abzüge an. 1970 widmete das New Yorker Museum of Modern Art diesen Arbeiten eine eigene Ausstellung. Louis Malles Film Pretty Baby von 1978 basiert auf Bellocqs Lebensgeschichte, nach dessen Fotos viele Szenen des Films komponiert wurden. WIKI).
