Hardback. Condition: New. In the early 1970s, Nancy Rexroth began photographing the rural landscapes, children, white frame houses, and domestic interiors of southeastern Ohio with a plastic toy camera called the Diana. Working with the camera's properties of soft focus and vignetting, and further manipulating the photographs by deliberately blurring or sometimes overlaying them, Rexroth created dreamlike, poetic images of "my own private landscape, a state of mind." She called this state IOWA because the photographs seemed to reference her childhood summer visits to relatives in Iowa. Rexroth self-published her evocative images in 1977 in the book IOWA, and the photographic community responded immediately and strongly to the work. Aperture published a portfolio of IOWA images in a special issue, The Snapshot, alongside the work of Robert Frank, Garry Winogrand, Lee Friedlander, and Emmet Gowin. The International Center for Photography, the Corcoran Gallery of Art, and the Smithsonian Institution included IOWA images in group exhibitions.Forty years after its original publication, IOWA has become a classic of fine art photography, a renowned demonstration of Rexroth's ability to fashion a world of surprising aesthetic possibilities using a simple, low-tech dollar camera. Long out of print and highly prized by photographers and photobook collectors, IOWA is now available in a hardcover edition that includes twenty-two previously unpublished images. Accompanying the photographs are a new foreword by Magnum photographer and book maker Alec Soth and an essay by internationally acclaimed curator Anne Wilkes Tucker, who affirms the continuing power and importance of IOWA within the photobook genre. New postscripts by Nancy Rexroth and Mark L. Power, who wrote the essay in the first edition, complete the volume.…

Unpaginated. Introductions by Mark Power and Nancy Rexroth. From Rexroth's Introduction: "The series Iowa has now occupied a total six years of my life. The book is conceived of as a kind of psychic journey from one emotional mood to the next - a maturation process." Rexroth used a plastic, 1960s toy Diana camera, embracing the camera's technical flaws to create surreal, dreamlike imagery from the rural, Midwestern subjects she encountered. Hailed as a seminal fine-art book now, this original publication had a small print run and was finally reprinted in a remastered edition by the University of Texas in 2017. B50.…

Paperback. Light purple wraps with black lettering; 117 unnumbered pp.; richly illustrated. "Rexroth's most notable work, Iowa, is a series of dream-like and poetic images.Each seemingly candid and liquid composition includes a soft focus and vignette, characteristic qualities of Diana camera images. [.] The Iowa series subconsciously expresses Rexroth's childhood memories of visiting family in Iowa. Growing up in the suburbs of Arlington, Virginia, she was captivated by the exotic summer landscapes of Iowa. Although the influence of her memories is present, Rexroth refers to Iowa as a hallucinatory state of mind rather than a concrete geographic location of personal sentiment. She describes Iowa as 'conceived of as a kind of psychic journey from one emotional mood to the next-- a maturation process. It all happens in a place which is very exotic.' In the introduction to the book, Mark L. Power describes this work as 'Sunny Iowa was transformed by memory into a dark Iowa with "a real feeling of melancholy." [.]" -- WorldCat.

Condition: VG In the introduction to the 2017 reprint, Rexroth wrote "The series IOWA has now occupied a total of six years of my life. In retrospect, it does seem rather odd to have spent so long using a plastic toy camera such as the Diana. But somehow the excitement continued and continued, and I followed right along until one day in Ironton, Ohio, when I realized I was no longer interested. The book is conceived of as a kind of psychic journey from one emotional mood to the next - a maturation process. It all happens in a very exotic place. It is the Midwest, that strange land where déjà vu is an everyday occurrence." This self-published work soon became a classic of fine art photography.
