"McGinley had managed to capture the hedonistic adventures of youth culture, kids hanging out and enjoying life, but without the dark underbelly of earlier artists who mined similar themes. As the work evolved, he moved away from the more documentary aspect of the early photographs and began to create scenarios where he could explore different ideas. This eventually led to the now legendary summer road trips, capturing groups of twenty-somethings among a variety of American landscapes. In his most recent body of work, McGinley continues to explore, in black and white as well as in color, the body but in the still, pared down atmosphere of his studio. In this first major monograph chronicling the entirety of the artist?s career, McGinley?s work is considered by three extraordinary figures: Chris Kraus, novelist and critic; John Kelsey, writer, artist, and activist; and Gus Van Sant, the auteur filmmaker. Each attends through the lens of their own rich insights to various aspects of the artist?s work and creative process, offering in-depth and unique perspectives on McGinley?s work and import.".

Hardcover. Condition: As New. No Jacket. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 144 pages. Published in 2026. Exhibition Catalog, presented as an Artist Book. A most beautifully conceived and realized book on the art and achievement of filmmaker Gus Van Sant as a full-fledged visual artist. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only by a small fine press. The production values, subtle and sublime, are outstanding in every respect: Oversize-volume format. Pale gray hard boards with white paper and cloth pictorial overlays, as issued. Art by Gus Van Sant. Text (in English) by Dennis Congdon appended at the end. Printed on pristine-white, thick uncoated stock paper in Germany to the highest standards. Without DJ, as issued. Presents "Gus Van Sant: Paintings". A compendium of a decade's worth of work (between 2010 and 2021), it evokes the melancholy - yet also exhilarating - beauty of his oeuvre. His influences are self-evident and unmistakable: Warhol on the one hand ("hard" silkscreen paintings) and David Hockney on the other ("soft" pastel watercolors). Their influence is stylistic as well as "subjective": Portraits of handsome and desirable young men, who will remind his film-work admirers of his handsome and desirable - if disaffected and troubled - cinematic anti-heroes, as portrayed by such figures as Keanu Reeves and River Phoenix, among others. They are (per Dennis Congdon) "calmly celestial" Lost Boys, auras more than mere model-subjects. "Sequenced in a non-chronological and associative manner, the book presents different series in surprising rhythms, focusing on recurring motifs and themes throughout widely varied modes accumulated during decades of work. Bound inside out, this hardcover publication has a unique objecthood that imparts the suggestion of having been intimately handled by its makers. The Outside Covers feature two test screen-prints, alluding to Gus Van Sant's painting practice as the 'flipside' of his career in filmmaking" (Publisher's blurb). Also includes his "Mona Lisa" reiterations using various modernizing media. The book is auspicious for another reason: As the inaugural title of Blue Moon Press, the Artist Book Imprint of the legendary arts and culture magazine Blue Moon (issued since 2015).

This title is an Artist Book collectible. This is the only such double-signed copy of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing we have ever found, is available online, and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright.

XX [From Van Sant?s introduction] The faces in this book were originally Polaroids used to cast the movies I've made. Beginning with my film MALA NOCHE, I took the pictures of the lead actors, so that when planning the details of the shoot I could stare at the pictures and imagine the characters coming to life, and how they might visually relate to one another. As my films grew larger and when I started to get more money to make them, I used the Polaroids of the faces to do the initial casting. I think that the bulk of these pictures are people that I had a meeting with about playing a part in either DRUGSTORE COWBOY or MY OWN PRIVATE IDAHO. These were taken in casting sessions. During the casting sessions, the actor or actress would come in to talk with me or the producers or the film executives on the project. Generally they would read or act out a section of the script and then we would usually chat about something, like I remember during DRUGSTORE COWBOY (it was an active earthquake here and the casting office was in a high rise) we could talk about how stupid it was to be so high up in a building 16 floors for an earthquake or perhaps maybe the building was safer than most places. Everyone had their earthquake expertise, because nobody really quite knew what would happen to us when we were in a really bad earthquake. After we talked about something innocuous and removed from the task at hand, like earthquakes, I would generally grab my camera which was sitting in front of me (I actually sort of hid behind it, it was so big) and I would ask, can I take a picture of you and every time I ask, so far, people have said yes. I always thought they were nice to agree, because they weren't necessarily prepared or anything like that. But it's more that it's possible they are used to a lot more unusual demands during casting sessions. I began collecting the negatives from these pictures (Polaroid makes a black and white film that produces a negative at the same time as the instant picture) with an idea to later make blowups, but it took five years before I decided to do anything with the pictures.

First Edition. Signed by the author, director, artist Gus Van Sant. 137 pages, plus index. With an essay, Lightness In the Paintings of Gus Van Sant, by artist Dennis Congdon. As new without jacket as issued. Much like the artist himself, everything about this offering has a relevant and interesting point to make, from the binding - an innovative inside-out deconstructed hardcover design, to the images themselves - ranging from urban flash to more painterly and nuanced. From the conclusion of a five-page conversation with the editor Leah Gudmundson at the end of the book: ÒLG: So it came as second nature to Hockney to be continually drawing, whereas youĠve spent so much time making films, thatĠs whatĠs more habitual to you as an author of expression. GVS: For me, making films is second nature; making paintings is more dependent on the input.Ó This is Blue Moon PressĠs first publication and marks a promising entry into the fine printing and publishing world. Gus Van Sant has directed some of modern cinemaĠs most intriguing films, including My Own Private Idaho (1991), Drugstore Cowboy (1989), Good Will Hunting (1997), Finding Forester (2000), Milk (2008), as well as numerous music videos for Elton John, David Bowie, Chris Isaak, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and more. He has received two Academy Award Best Director nominations for Good Will Hunting and Milk.
