The reproduction quality is exemplary in every respect. Without DJ, as issued. Presents Michael Schmelling's "Shut Up Truth". Being photographs of a regular guy, James Holloway, a middle-aged bachelor and projectionist living in El Paso, Texas, befriended by the photojournalist. "A document of Michael Schmelling's friendship with James Holloway, a Texas native and union projectionist. The project began in 1996, when Schmelling met Holloway at a film screening while on assignment in Texas for Associated Press. An unflinching and intimate portrait of a single, white middle-aged man. The photographs, taken in El Paso, constitute a documentary of contemporary American life. Michael Schmelling lives in New York City and is a regular contributor to The New York Times Magazine, New York Magazine, The Fader, and Details" (Publisher's blurb). Deliberately mundane and matter-of-fact, the collection enjoys a cult following as a photography book in the same vein as Stephen Shore and Joel Sternfeld, and in the way it evokes American life, the un-celebrated kind, in this case, that of a "lowly" - in our view, which says a lot about us - worker. Who is typically viewed and presented by mass media as lonely (being single) and unworthy of a photographer's, or anyone else's attention. The book asks, "Who deserves to be photographed and to be looked at by us?". An absolute "must-have" title for Michael Schmelling collectors. This copy is very boldly and beautifully signed in black ink-pen on the title page by Michael Schmelling. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a cult art photography title. As far as we know, this is the only such signed copy of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare signed copy thus. Lavishly illustrated with color plates. One of the most brilliant photographers of our time. A fine copy. ISBN 0970165633. Signed by Author.…

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. In the winter of 2007, photographer Michael Schmelling--known for his previous books Shut Up Truth and The Plan--photographed the USA National Memory Championships in New York City. Roughly 100 competitors gathered in a modest conference hall in the Con Edison building to compete in a series of mnemonic tests. Schmelling's photographs from that day are primarily of the competitors, all intensely engaged in recalling and reciting lists of information. Schmelling returned to the championships in 2008, photographing many of the same competitors as the year before. Building a book of short, interrelated stories, Schmelling has combined these images of mnemonists with a series of similar, overlapping narratives. Traveling through a North American landscape of neutral interiors, the viewer of Land Line encounters an array of subjects in the midst of thinking, forgetting, questioning and interpreting. Photographs of professional mnemonists, teenagers in an algorithmic code competition, entrepreneurs, a Hollywood actor, prisoners and English language students dressed up as historical figures coalesce into a larger narrative about cognition, memory and information.

paperback. Condition: As New. Prima edizione di 800 es. . Testo di Tim Kinsella. Fotografie a colori e in bianco e nero . 8vo (cm 27,7x20,3). pp. 168. . Perfetto (Mint). . Prima edizione di 800 es. . . In 2013, the Museum of Contemporary Photography commissioned American photographer Michael Schmelling to make a new series of photographs about music in his hometown of Chicago. First shown as the solo exhibition Your Blues in 2014 (curated by Karen Irvine), this ambitious body of work now takes form of an artist book, co-published by The Ice Plant and Skinnerboox. Schmelling spent eighteen months immersed in the project, crisscrossing Chicago alone at night, making his way into basement shows, crowded clubs, parties, and recording studios (?waiting in the dark for a communal experience with strangers,? as he describes it), documenting both the communal culture at large ? musicians and fans alike ? and the DIY individualism of the characters involved. Focussing on niche and local acts in unconventional venues, Schmelling's work reflects a vibrant, fluid crossover between the region's music genres, a diffuse legacy that encompasses the blues, punk, psychedelic jazz, rap, emo, hardcore, and house music. In Chicago ?there's no dominant cultural tradition,? writes musician Tim Kinsella in an essay included in the book. ?The dominant form is hybridity.? Teeming with enthralled bodies and ecstatic faces, Your Blues is an energetic and intimate document of a time and place, featuring over 200 meticulously sequenced photographs, puzzled together through subtle rhythms and recurring visual riffs, infusing Schmelling's own personal photo-cryptology into the evolving musical history of the city.Nel 2013, il Museum of Contemporary Photography ha incaricato il fotografo americano Michael Schmelling di realizzare una nuova serie di fotografie sulla musica nella sua città natale, Chicago. Schmelling ha trascorso diciotto mesi immerso nel progetto, attraversando di notte Chicago da solo, facendosi strada negli spettacoli nei seminterrati, nei club affollati, nelle feste e negli studi di registrazione. Il lavoro di Schmelling riflette un vibrante e fluido crossover tra i generi musicali della città, un'eredità diffusa che comprende il blues, il punk, il jazz psichedelico, il rap, l'emo, l'hardcore e la musica house. A Chicago "non esiste una tradizione culturale dominante", scrive il musicista Tim Kinsella in un saggio incluso nel libro. Brulicante di corpi affascinati e volti estatici, Your Blues è un documento energico e intimo di un tempo e di un luogo, con oltre 200 fotografie meticolosamente sequenziate, confuse insieme attraverso ritmi sottili e riff visivi ricorrenti.
