Hardcover. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 228 pages. Published in 2002. Landmark collection of contemporary Latin-American art photography. One of the most important and most beautiful art photography books of its kind ever published in our time. The first and only edition. Published in a small and limited print run as hardcover original only that sold out shortly after publication. The First Edition is now rare. A brilliant production by Wim Melis: Regular-sized volume format. Pictorial hard boards with copper cloth overboards and titles on the cover and spine, as issued. Photographs by various contributors, THE Who's Who of contemporary Latin-American photography. You name him or her, he or she is in this book (until the turn of the 21st century). Curated with text by Wim Melis. Text by various other expert/specialists. Printed on pristine-white, archival stock paper in Amsterdam, The Netherlands to the highest standards. Without DJ, as issued. Published on the occasion of the Nooderlicht Photography Festival, which was held in various venues, in 2002. Presents "Mundos Creados: Latin-American Photography". The ground-breaking European retrospective festival on contemporary Latin-American art photography. Produced as a handy reference guide to its subject, Wim Melis divides his book into two parts: "Mundos Creados I" and "Mundos Creados II", with an extended Epilogue. The exhibition itself was divided into four parts, as a "quadrivium", to make the rich subject more easily digestible. Collectively, they capture the vitality, diversity, and beauty of contemporary Latin-American art photography. Luis Gonzalez Palma opens "Mundos Creados I". So many names are not yet familiar to most reader-viewers, but their work speaks for itself. They will astonish, surprise, and delight. And of course, the works of Graciela Iturbide, Flor Garduno, Mario Cravo Neto, and Miguel Rio Branco are also here, in all their transcendent beauty and power. An absolute "must-have" title for Luis Gonzalez Palma and contemporary art photography collectors. This copy is very prominently and beautifully signed in black ink-pen on his Contribution by Luis Gonzalez Palma. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. The latter opens "Mundos Creados I", a distinct honor. This title is a contemporary art photography classic. As far as we know, this is the only such signed copy of the Exhibition Monograph available online and despite its slight imperfection (slight pinch on top of the front board corner, but it's there) is still in fine condition overall: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: This pioneering book will probably not materialize again because all of the copies sold out upon publication, most of them spirited away by Rare Book library and private collections. A rare signed copy thus. Hundreds of plates. Some of the greatest artist/photographers of our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER LUIS GONZALEZ PALMA TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 9076703191.

"Miguel Rio Branco unites more than four decades of work across several major cities into one astonishing poetic statement on urban life. Eschewing city landmarks or aspirational ideals, Rio Branco turns his lens to common threads of struggle in metropolises around the globe. Maldicidade is a collection in which all urban dwellers will find something of themselves, or something they long to escape." (from the publisher) "Miguel Rio Branco (born 1946) is a Brazilian photographer, painter, and filmmaker (director and cinematographer). His work has focused on Brazil and included photojournalism, and social and political criticism. Rio Branco is an Associate Member of Magnum Photos. His photographs are included in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art and Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. Rio Branco was born in Las Palmas, Gran Canaria, in the Canary Islands. His parents were diplomats and he spent his childhood in Portugal, Switzerland, Brazil and the United States. In 1976 he moved to New York City, where he earned a BA, and took a one-month vocational course at the New York Institute of Photography. In 1978, he moved to Rio de Janeiro and studied at the Industrial Design College. He has been an Associate Member of Magnum Photos since 1980. He lives and works in Rio de Janeiro."

"Für Maldicidade hat Miguel Rio Branco Fotografien aus mehr als vier Jahrzehnten zu einem schonungslosen wie poetischen Statement über Marginalisierung, Armut, Verfall und urbane Verelendung arrangiert. Seine Bilder zeigen eine Welt in Auflösung, in der alte Vorstellungen von Urbanität ihre Gültigkeit verloren haben." (Verlagstext) Seit Ende des 20. Jahrhunderts leben zum ersten Mal in der Geschichte mehr Menschen in Städten und wild wuchernden, stadtähnlichen Ballungsräumen als auf dem Land, ein Drittel von ihnen in Slums. Diesem globalen Trend scheint eine sich vereinheitlichende Architektursprache zu entsprechen, die Metropolen und Megacitys einander immer ähnlicher werden lässt. Ähnlich auch die Anblicke, die sich jenseits historischer Wahrzeichen, imponierender Skylines und großer architektonischer Gesten in den austauschbaren urbanen Leerstellen und aufgegebenen Vierteln, auf den Abseiten und an den Peripherien bieten. Hier findet sich all das, was die Stadt ausgeschieden hat, gescheiterte Menschen, Müll, ungeregelte Existenzen, Rost, Verfall, Improvisiertes und Provisorisches, überlagert vom Miasma der Perspektivlosigkeit aus Fäulnis, Schweiß, Urin, Blut, Abgasen und verdorbenem Frittierfett. Eine Duftmarke, die sich nicht nur auf Schwellen- und Entwicklungsländer beschränkt. In Maldicidade richtet Miguel Rio Branco die Kamera auf diese Nebenschauplätze im urbanen Raum, auf Obdachlose, Bettler, Prostituierte, streunende Hunde, zertrümmerte Autos, Einschusslöcher, Straßenverkäuferinnen, fliegende Händler, Hinterhöfe und eingeschlagene Scheiben - Sujets, die Stadt nicht als Möglichkeitsraum für Mannigfaltigkeit und komplexe Erfahrungen zeigen, sondern als Ort des Scheiterns und der Gleichgültigkeit. Ob er diese Szenen in New York, Havanna, Salvador de Bahia, Tokio oder anderswo gefunden hat, bleibt dabei ohne Belang: Die Fotografien, die nur spärlich kommentiert oder in einen erklärenden Kontext gerückt werden, sind sorgfältig zu einer einzigen Sequenz angeordnet, in der eine universelle Stadt wiederzuerkennen ist. Ähnlich der Arbeit eines Cutters, arrangiert Rio Branco die Abfolge der Bilder nach rhythmischen Kriterien und gruppiert einzelne Motive (verfallene Gebäude, einsame Gestalten, demolierte Karosserien), Farben (satte Rottöne, staubiges Rosa, kräftiges Weiß und Blau) und Formen (ein am Boden liegender Obdachloser neben der Skulptur eines Heiligen in ekstatisch-verzücktem Zustand) zu sinnträchtigen Mustern. Nur gelegentlich unterbricht er diesen Fluss mit Fotografien, die dem Betrachter eine Atempause zwischen all dem Elend und Unglück zu versprechen scheinen, Bilder von lachenden Menschen oder tanzenden Paaren.Maldicidade - zugleich eindringlich in seiner Botschaft und lyrisch in seinem Arrangement - zeigt einen radikal zersetzten, verelendeten urbanen Raum, eine Welt, die sich anstrengt, alle Dystopien einzuholen und zu übertrumpfen, und in der dennoch Momente von Lebenswillen und Lebensfreude aufscheinen."
