Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. Unpaginated. Published in 1994. The artist/photographer's collection of photographs on subject. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with the Softcover Edition. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. A brilliant production by Victor Skrebneski: Oversize-volume format. Pictorial hard boards with titles on spine, as issued. Photographs by Skrebneski. Text by John Von Rhein and Andrew Porter, the former music critic of The New Yorker Magazine, and the greatest writer on opera of our time. Glossy red endpapers, which brilliantly emulate the opera house's legendary red carpet. Printed on pristine-white, thick coated stock paper in Hong Kong to the highest standards. In matching pictorial DJ with titles on the cover and spine, as issued. Presents Skrebneski's "Bravi! : Lyric Opera of Chicago". His loving tribute to the ardor, beauty, and glamor of opera. His homage to art-as-ecstasy celebrates in particular one of the world's greatest opera companies, The Lyric Opera of Chicago. Lavishly illustrated with black-and-white photographs of eleven opera stars as well as conductors, designers, directors, and a magnificent portfolio of production photographs taken between 1981 and 1994. "When you look at these wonderful pictures, I believe you can still hear the music, and you can still feel the electricity that must have existed in the house when the curtain went up. One of the most beautiful books about opera ever created" (Placido Domingo). Skrebneski's devotion to his adopted city is profound: He has also published books on its Film Festival ("Moving Pictures", 2004), its legendary theatre company ("Steppenwolf 25", 2004), and its legendary night life ("Richard's Bar", 2007), all of them iconic Chicago/American institutions. At his very best, Skrebneski is ranked with Richard Avedon and Irving Penn as a fashion, lifestyle, and portrait photographer. As a male and female nude photographer, he is firmly grounded in the great tradition of Horst and George Platt Lynes. The late great fashion designer Hubert de Givenchy paid Skrebneski the ultimate tribute anyone could hope for when he called the latter "an artist, not just a photographer". An absolute "must-have" title for Skrebneski collectors and opera lovers. This copy is very boldly and beautifully signed and dated (on the day of publication) in metallic-silver pen-marker on the back endpapers by the artist/photographer: "Skrebneski 10 XI '94". It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. It glows beautifully against the light. His signature on the Back Page and the special marker he uses have become Skrebneski trademarks. This title is a classic. As far as we know, this is the only such signed and publication-day dated copy of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. A rare signed copy thus. Lavishly illustrated with photographic plates. One of the greatest artist/photographers of our time. A fine copy.
