Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -Gordon Parks' 1967 Life magazine essay 'Whip of Black Power' is a nuanced profile of the young and controversial civil rights leader Stokely Carmichael. As chairman of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, Carmichael gained national attention and inspired media backlash when he issued the call for Black Power in Greenwood, Mississippi, in June 1966. Parks, on contract with Life, shadowed him from the fall of 1966 to the spring of 1967, as Carmichael gave speeches, headed meetings and promoted the growing Black Power movement. Parks' photos and writing addressed Carmichael's intelligence and humor in equal measure, presenting the whole man behind the headline-making speeches. In his finely draw n sketch of a leader and a movement, Parks reveals his own advocacy of Black Power and its message of self-determination and love.Stokely Carmichael and Black Power delves into Parks' groundbreaking presentation of Carmichael, and provides a detailed analysis of his images and accompanying text about the charismatic leader. Essays by Lisa Volpe and Cedric Johnson shed critical new light on the subject: Volpe explores Parks' complex understanding of the movement and its leader, and Johnson frames Black Power within the heightened social and political moment of the late 1960s. Carmichael's own voice is represented through a reproduction of his important essay 'What We Want' from September 1966.Co-published by The Gordon Parks Foundation and the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston.

First Edition Signed
Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 80 pages. Published in 2018. The artist/photographer's breakthrough debut monograph. The single best introduction to the photographically-based art and achievement of Marina Font. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only that will, by design, have limited distribution. A brilliant production by Marina Font and Minor Matters Books: Oversize-volume format. Blood-red cloth boards with metallic-silver titles embossed on spine, as issued. Photographs by Marina Font. Essay by Lisa Volpe. Printed on pristine-white, thick coated stock paper by Oddi in Iceland to the highest standards. The reproduction quality is exemplary in every respect. In pictorial DJ with titles on the cover and spine, as issued. Presents Marina Font's "Anatomy Is Destiny/La Anatomia Es Destino". Biology = Not Destiny. Consists of Font's two major sequences thus far, "Mental Maps" and "Dark Continents". Both subvert the female nude, a major medium, not just subject, in the whole history of Western art, through what Lisa Volpe calls a "constellation of The Feminine". "I have continued to explore the complexity of the human psyche and its inner threads in order to further investigate my relationship with the multiple intersecting factors that constitute the female identity, delving into its multiple aspects. The central axis of these very intuitive and visceral works is the approach to the female body perceived mainly through three planes: The biological, the psychological, and the social, and the juxtapositions and connections among these themes. I depart from a black-and-white photograph of a female body and make of these neutral photographs a canvas for recreating, through the physical labor of sewing, metaphors of the mind's systematic representation of the world. My hands intervene each work manually, and through this intimate, performatic ritual, the embodiment of the photograph becomes the common ground where the familiar and the foreign meet, as an individual attempt to blur the lines between the internal and external spaces of the body. The construction of these mental maps evokes diverse psychological states and emotions with meanings that are in constant flux, never fixed, just like our identities. I aim to approach what lies beyond control and reason, exploring, through the act of drawing with thread, embroidery, fabric, and appropriated crochet pieces onto the photographic surface, the intricate mysteries of the psyche. I intend to shed imaginary light on the female experience in order to build idealized and fantastical connections to the forces of the unconscious" (Marina Font). An absolute "must-have" title for Marina Font collectors. This copy is very prominently, neatly, and beautifully signed and dated (in the year of publication) in black pen-marker on the half-title page by Marina Font. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. It comes with a fine copy of "Marina Font: El Contrato/The Contract", her earliest publication. This title is a contemporary art photography classic. As far as we know, this is the only such signed and publication-year dated copy (with "El Contrato") of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only that will, by design, have very limited distribution. A rare signed copy thus. Lavishly illustrated with color plates. One of the most brilliant artist/photographers of our time. A fine set. ISBN 0990603695. Signed by Author.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine condition. First edition. Signed R. J. Kern with hand-numbered limitation, 2/50, on front free endpaper. Laid in an original color inkjet print of a photograph (7 5/8 x 11 1/4"), signed and hand-numbered 1/25 by R. J. Kern, tissue guard. Large Quarto. Unpaginated (52 photographic plates) with eight leaves of text separating the two suites of photographs at the center. Laid in official R. J. Kern color photo-postcard, with printed contact info, hand-written and signed R. J. Kern, expressing gratitude for the support of his work. Original photo-illustrated boards with embossed gray lettering on cover and spine (with National Geographic issue November 2017 containing his photo-essay). Book and magazine housed in two separate pouches of a specially designed limited edition tof gray felt briefcase, lined with gray velvet and images of a goat and a sheep printed to inside flap, string-tied around mother of pearl buttons, with two additional velvet lined pockets on back of briefcase housing two plastic bags, connected by woolen string, containing sheep wool and goat hair. Magazine with additional wool bookmark with mother of pearl button tied to top, positioned at R. J. Kern's contribution to this issue. Extravagant production of two series of photographs taken by R. J. Kern: "The Bovidae" depicts animals and their environment in the countries of Kern's ancestors, Norway, Iceland, Ireland and Germany, while "The Unchosen" chapter depicts animals in rural America, focusing on Minnesota, the home of the photographer. The fifty-two photographs, thirty-two in part one, are reproduced photo-lithographically. "Animals have always been a canvas onto which mankind projects emotions or ideas. Kern's personal examination of his ancestry in Ireland, Germany, Norway, and Iceland resulted in an artistic project in which goats and sheep represent issues of identity and history. From the biblical story of Eve and the snake to the contemporary book and movie, "Life of Pi," animals have long connoted the polysemy of "nature": both man's intrinsic qualities and the pure actions of the animal world. In this way, Kern's photographs are part of a long cultural history in which animals act as metaphors, most notably in the pastoral tradition." (Lisa Volpe). The enclosed issue of National Geographic contains a story and color photographs by R. J. Kern entitled "The Unchosen. The competition is fierce at the county fair animal contest in Minnesota. Few are winners. What happens to the others?" Proof. A Photographer's Journal (page 105). The photographs have been exhibited at the National Portrait Gallery, London, in 2017/18, the Klompching Gallery, Brooklyn, 2018, and the Griffin Museum of Photography, Winchester, MA, USA, in 2108, and they have been awarded the Taylor Wessing Photographic Portrait Prize 2017.
