No priority/international, except by special arrangement. *** "In this publication, William A. Ewing announces the death of the conventional portrait. In an age when we are bombarded with flawless images of youthful beauty, when rejuvenation is available through a jar of cream or a scalpel, artists and photographers seek to portray the face in new ways. Through a variety of techniques, including computer manipulation, retouching, photomontage, appropriation of found imagery and methods of veiling and disguising, the artists present their new portraits. They replace clarity with blur, the split-second with the elastic moment, reality with hyperreality, questioning the notion of a fixed identity, of what constitutes beauty, of faith in absolute photographic truth. As Ewing argues, their exciting new portraiture, with its focus on what is revealed rather than what is concealed, is curiously closer to portraiture of the nineteenth century than to that of the twentieth. Whether Gillian Wearing's masked self-portrait, Aziz + Cucher's neutral facades, LawickMuller's composite portrait of a couple, Cindy Sherman's disquieting disguises or Orlan's disturbing experiments with cosmetic surgery, these faces demand our attention. Exploring bold new strategies of representation, the artists in this book present faces to the world that are sometimes alluring, sometimes touching, sometimes frightening, but never less than iveting." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Preface; Introduction; 1.

Oversized Hardcover. Condition: Good. Edward Steichen was already a famous painter and photographer in America and abroad when, in early 1923, he was offered the most prestigious position in photography's commercial domain: that of chief photographer for Vogue and Vanity Fair. Over the next fifteen years, he would produce a body of work of unequaled brilliance, dramatizing and glamorizing contemporary culture and its achievers. Here are icon images of Gloria Swanson, Gary Cooper, Greta Garbo, and Charles Chaplin, as well as numerous other celebrities drawn from an archive of more than 2,000 original prints.

Hardcover. Condition: Used - Like New. Edward Steichen (1879-1973) is unquestionably one of the most prolific, influential, and indeed controversial names in the history of photography. He was admired by many for his achievements as a fine-art photographer, while impressing countless others with the force of his commercial accomplishments. The influence of his legendary exhibition, The Family of Man, is still felt.This volume traces Steichen s career trajectory from his Pictoralist beginnings to his time with Conde Nast through his directorship of photography at the Museum of Modern Art. Hundreds of his photographs are reproduced in stunning four-color to reveal the complexities and nuances of these black-and-white images. Essays from a range of scholars explore his most important subjects and weigh his legacy. Contributors include A. D. Coleman, Joanna T. Steichen, and Ronald Gedrim. With a full bibliography and chronology, this is the most complete and wide-ranging volume on Steichen ever published. By far the most lavish, thoughtfully selected, and beautifully produced book of Steichen s work. BEAUTIFUL COPY!!! wrapped in complimentary Brodart dust jacket protector.

Hardcover. Condition: Sehr gut. Dust Jacket Condition: Sehr gut. 1. Auflage. Z : 336 Seiten, 250 Abb. Leinen mit Schutzumschlag 26,60 x 31,50 cm - Edward Steichen (1879 1973) ist einer der einflussreichsten Persönlichkeiten der Fotografiegeschichte, seine künstlerischen Fotografien gehören zu den Klassikern des Mediums. Steichens Vielseitigkeit ist unerreicht, dennoch vermag sein Name bis heute Diskussionen auszulösen, weil Kritikern manche seine Bilder zu stilisiert oder kommerziell erscheinen. Die Genres der Porträt-, Akt-, Mode-, Landschafts-, Stadt-, Kriegs-, Werbe- oder Stilllebenfotografie hätten sich jedoch ohne Steichens Experimentierfreude und das dramatische Flair seiner Bilder anders entwickelt. Selbst in seiner Jugend als Maler erfolgreich, machte Steichen als Kurator einflussreicher Ausstellungen Picasso, Matisse oder Rodin in den USA bekannt, stellte Meisterwerke anderer Fotografen aus und erwies sich zudem als begabter Typograf und Werbegrafiker. Die umfangreiche Publikation stellt mit Hunderten von Arbeiten alle Facetten seines unglaublich produktiven Schaffens vor.
