Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Jim Melchert (1932-2023) is often described as the "great philosopher of the post-war craft movement." This is the first monograph to document Melchert's esteemed and influential career. The book is a long overdue tribute to one of America's great artists, who challenged ceramic traditions of expression, form, and function and helped elevate the medium's acceptance into mainstream contemporary sculpture. It presents an overview of his storied 60 year career, including his work in the 1960's helping elevate ceramics to a contemporary art form. It documents the artists involvement in the California Funk movement, his groundbreaking 1970s performances, his work in conceptual art and showcases the thrilling broken tile works that preoccupied the artist at the end of his long career. Embedded in his late tile artwork, we see a philosophical concept that when something is broken, it can be repaired and made stronger and more beautiful. We see in Melchert's tile work a metaphor for life. What lies behind these broken shards in Melchert's mesmerizing works is something remarkable: Optimism. Nothing is beyond repair. These remarkable works are born from the belief that we have the power to bring positive change from our misfortune and contribute to the depth of our shared story.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Hal Fischer: The Gay Seventies is the first monograph to feature the complete set of photo-text works that Hal Fischer produced between 1977 and 1979 in San Francisco's Haight and Castro neighborhoods. In addition to Gay Semiotics, Fischer's best-known work (its recent facsimile edition now out of print) Hal Fischer: The Golden Age of Gay includes 18th Near Castro Street x 24, which was published as an artist's book, Boy-Friends, A Salesman and two other series Civic Center and Cheap Chic Homo.Hal Fischer: The Gay Seventies brings together, for the first time in nearly four decades, Fischer's major photo-text investigations of gay life in late 1970s San Francisco. Unapologetic, humorous, periodically subversive and conceptually driven, Fischer's photo-text investigations continue to engage and amuse audiences. As the work demonstrates, the late 1970s after Stonewall and before AIDS was a magical moment to be young and gay in San Francisco.Hal Fischer (born 1950) grew up in Highland Park, Illinois. He arrived in San Francisco in 1975 to pursue an MA in photography at San Francisco State. Through his work as an art reviewer and photographer, he soon became embedded in the Bay Area's artistic and intellectual scene. He continues to live and work in San Francisco. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
