Hardback. Condition: As new, shrinkwrapped. First edition. 20 x 30cm 439pp as new hardback in dust jacket, shrinkwrapped. In 1936, the ornithologist James Bond published Birds of the West Indies, the definitive study of the birdlife of the Caribbean. Ian Fleming, who lived in Jamaica for a time and observed birds himself, adopte…d the name for the title character of his spy novels because he seemed "commonplace," "short," "Anglo-Saxon," and "masculine." Fleming thus made the first in a long chain of exchanges that would become central to the structure of Bond stories. Taryn Simon researched the James Bond films and compiled a precise inventory of all the women, weapons, and vehicles that are always present alongside the famous agent. With her Birds of the West Indies, the artist presents a visual database of interchangeable "spare parts" in which this male fantasy manifests itself, and examines the economic and emotional value generated by their variable use.Published to coincide with an exhibition in Pittsburgh, October 5, 2013 - March 16, 2014.Taryn Simon is an American multidisciplinary artist who works in photography, text, sculpture, and performance.A very heavy book, may need extra postage.

Hardcover. Condition: Sehr gut. Dust Jacket Condition: Wie neu. 1. Auflage. Z : 440 pp., 210 ills. clothbound - In 1936, an ornithologist called James Bond released the definitive taxonomy of birds found in the Caribbean, titled Birds of the West Indies. Ian Fleming, an active bird watcher living in Jamaica, subsequently appropr…iated the name for his novel s lead character. He found it to be perfectly ordinary , brief , Anglo-Saxon and masculine . This co-opting of names was the first replacement in a series of substitutions that would become central to the construction of the Bond narrative. In a meticulous and comprehensive dissection of the Bond films, artist Taryn Simon (*1975 in New York) inventoried women, weapons and vehicles in Bond. The contents of these categories function as essential accessories to the narrative s myth of the seductive, powerful, and invincible western male. In Birds of the West Indies, Simon presents a visual database of interchangeable variables used in the production of fantasy, through which she examines the economic and emotional value generated by their repetition.

Edited by Lesley A. Martin. Designed by Murray & Sorrell FUEL. Near Fine (corners slightly bumped, not affecting text block). From the publisher: "Stephen Shore's Uncommon Places is indisputably a canonic body of workâ"a touchstone for those interested in photography and the American landscape. Remarkably, despite having been the focus of numerous shows and books, including the eponymous 1982 Aperture classic (expanded and reissued several times), this series of photographs has yet to be explored in its entirety. Over the past five years, Shore has scanned hundreds of negatives shot between 1973 and 1981. In this volume, Aperture has invited an international group of fifteen photographers, curators, authors, and cultural figures to select ten images apiece from this rarely seen cache of images. Each portfolio offers an idiosyncratic and revealing commentary on why this body of work continues to astound; how it has impacted the work of new generations of photography and the medium at large; and proposes new insight on Shore's unique vision of America as transmuted in this totemic series."

Couverture souple. Condition: Bon. Edition originale. Göttingen 2010. 1 Volume/1. -- Good -- Softbound ( 24,5 x 16,5 cm )( 1380 gr ). --------- 480 pages , 1075 colour plates. ************************ '' Taryn Simon lived in John F Kennedy International Airport from November 16 through November 20, 2009. JFK processes more inter…national passengers than any other airport in the United States. Contraband includes photographs taken 24 hours a day of over 1000 items detained or seized from passengers and express mail entering the U.S. from abroad. Over five days, in both the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Federal Inspection Site and the U.S. Postal Service International Mail Facility, Simon documented items including counterfeit American Express travelers checks, overproof Jamaican rum, heroin, a dead hawk, an illegal Mexican passport, deer penis, purses made from endangered species, Cuban cigars, counterfeit Disney DVDs, khat, gold dust, GHB concealed as house cleaner, cow manure tooth powder, counterfeit Louis Vuitton bags, prohibited sausage, undeclared jewelry, steroids and an ostrich egg. This catalog presents an edited version, selected by the artist, from the more than 1000 items she recorded. Taryn Simon was born in New York in 1975. Her recent work, An American Index of the Hidden and Unfamiliar, opened at The Whitney Museum of American Art, revealing that which is integral to Americas foundation, mythology and daily functioning, but remains inaccessible or unknown to a public audience. Her earlier work, The Innocents, opened at P.S. 1 Contemporary Art Center, documenting cases of wrongful conviction in the United States and investigates photographys role in that process. She is a graduate of Brown University and a Guggenheim Fellow. Permanent collections include: The Metropolitan Museum of Art; Tate Modern; Whitney Museum of American Art; Centre Pompidou; Museum Fur Moderne Kunst; and Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art.

In An American Index of the Hidden and Unfamiliar, Taryn Simon documents spaces that are integral to Americas foundation, mythology and daily functioning, but remain inaccessible or unknown to a public audience. She has photographed rarely seen sites from…domains including: science, government, medicine, entertainment, nature, security and religion. This index examines subjects that, while provocative or controversial, are currently legal. The work responds to a desire to discover unknown territories, to see everything. Simon makes use of the annotated-photographs capacity to engage and inform the public. Transforming that which is off-limits or under-the-radar into a visible and intelligible form, she confronts the divide between the privileged access of the few and the limited access of the public. Photographed with a large format view camera (except when prohibited), Simons 70 colour plates form a seductive collection that reflects and reveals a national identity. Foreword by Salman Rushdie Edited by Althea Wasow 152 pages Hardback / Clothbound 25.5 x 34 cm English First Edition 1. Edition 02/2007 Out of print. Taryn Simon (illustrator).
