Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. En el imaginario popular, el cowboy, uno de los iconos culturales más antiguos de Estados Unidos, ha terminado identificándose con un pistolero blanco. Sin embargo, en el siglo XIX, más de una tercera parte de estos vaqueros eran negros. Con esta serie fotográfica incluida en la exposición Andrea Robbins & Max Becher, Desplazamientos, la pareja de fotógrafos saca a la luz la cultura de los cowboys negros, prácticamente desconocida fuera de Estados Unidos debido a su segregación en las competiciones de rodeo y a su exclusión en la iconografía de los westerns. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente. No aceptamos pedidos con destino a Ceuta y Melilla.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Included. 1st Edition. 176 pp. Color photos. Bilingual text in English and Spanish. From the publisher: "In the popular imagination, the cowboy has long been identified as white--but at the height of the cattle-ranching period in the 19th century, more than one third of cowboys were African American. Black cowboy culture is still thriving today, but is little known to the general public. Beginning in 2008, Andrea Robbins (born 1963) and Max Becher (born 1964) set out to photograph this history and its legacy in contemporary black cowboy culture, shooting black riding clubs, black rodeo leagues and charity events across America.".

Hardcover. Condition: New. Andrea Robbins and Max Becher draw on a rich visual vocabulary gleaned as much from travel brochures, postcards and National Geographic as from the photography of Walker Evans, Edward Curtis and Stephen Shore. Their work, a somewhat surreal nonfiction, uses documentary images to examine contradictions of place and cultural identity: that is, when Germans tie on Native American headdresses and Midwesterners parade in Bavarian costumes, Robbins and Becher are there. In their own words, The primary focus of our work is what we call the transportation of place--situations in which one limited or isolated place strongly resembles another distant one. Everywhere, not only in the new world, such situations are accumulating and accepted as genuine locales. Traditional notions of place, in which culture and geographic location neatly coincide, are being challenged by legacies of slavery, colonialism, holocaust, immigration, tourism and mass-communication. Whether the subject is Germany in Africa, Germans dressing as Native Americans, American towns dressed as Germany, New York in Las Vegas, New York in Cuba or Cuba in exile, our interest tends to be a place out of place with its various causes and consequences. Their work posits vital questions for a globalized world and for photography.
