Hardcover. Condition: Very Good+. No Dust Jacket. Fourth Edition. Fourth edition in 2500 copies. Stiff crisp clean unmarked book in black cloth with small bump to top corner and faint smudging to rear.; 13.6 X 11.2 X 0.9 inches; I want to make images that have open, narrative qualities, enought to suggest ideas about human limit…s. I want there to be a combination of the past juxtaposed with the modern. I use nature to symbolize the search, saving a tree, watering the earth. In this fabricated world, strange clouds of smog float by; there are holes in the sky. These mythic images mirror our world, where nature is domesticated, controlled, and destroyed. Through my work I explore technology and a poetry of existence. These can be very heavy, overly didactic issues to convey in art, so I choose to portray them through a more theatrically absurd approach. --Robert ParkeHarrison.

hardcover. Third Printing. Small folio. This copy signed by both on the title page. Third printing, limited to 2500 copies. Fantastical images beautifully reproduced in this, their first book. Robert and Shana Parke-Harrison creates constructed photographs which tell stories of loss, struggle, and personal exploration within lan…dscapes scarred by technology and over-use. He attempts to metaphorically and poetically link his laborious actions, idiosyncratic rituals and strangely crude machines into tales about our modern experience.The mythic world he creates mirrors our world, where nature is domesticated and controlled. The scenes display futile attempts to save or rejuvenate nature. His 'everyman' character patches holes in the sky, creates rain machines, chases storms to create electricity, communicates with the earth to learn its needs. Within these scenes, he creates less refined, less scientific, more ritualistic and poetic possibilities to work with nature rather than destroying it. The nature of his images and the process of their construction are interdisciplinary, embodying aspects of theater, sculpture, and painting, photography and performance. None of the images are real in the factual sense, but they are treated as precious talismans of a lost moment, a documented super-reality, whose message, like that of a myth, transcends the small realities of the day to day world. A fine copy in black cloth with inset photo to front cover. Signed.
