Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. 1st Edition. Light wear to the dust jacket. Temporary Discomfort is artist Jules Spinatsch's documentation of three cities in a transitory state of emergency lock-down during two global economic summits (WEF and G8). It comines different photographical genres: landscape photography of the site, photojournalism, and police photography, but with the camera lens turned, atypically, on the security forces. The photo series and videos aim to achieve a speculative reconstruction of the situations in Davos, New York, Genoa and Evian/Geneva, while they also ask questions about the conditions under which photography is and can be produced today. Spinatsch's position while working on the project was that of an informed outsider--his presence in the area around the meetings was acknowledged by the security forces but not really appreciated, which was one the factors that determined his work. Spinatsch's new approach to documentary photography is theorized here by essayist Martin Jaeggi and presented through beautiful photographs with strong political undertones.

Printed on glossy stock paper in Switzerland to the highest standards. The book ironically mimics the look and feel of an Annual Corporate Report. Without DJ, as issued. Presents Jules Spinatsch's "Temporary Discomfort". In five interrelated chapters. An anti-heroic visual approach is shown as the only possible antidote to the toxic effects of the imagery of power. "Spinatsch examines the waiting for the big event as meticulously planned down to the last detail. Whatever will happen is already inscribed in its security architecture. He creates landscapes that could serve as the antithesis to the Romantic tradition. He shows landscapes and cityscapes as they appear under the cold, strategic gaze of security planners, a terrain where every movement must be controlled and contained. Spinatsch mimics the gaze of power, power as a gaze that sees the world only as a security hazard to be contained. At the heart of the security architecture that Spinatsch shows us, we find a hermetically sealed vacuum in which politicians and managers meet to organize world trade in the name of liberal democracy while they smile at TV cameras, remote and untouchable. Spinatsch does not want to be a hero. He is a spy behind enemy lines. Only such a clever anti-strategist can show the cold and imperious glance of power so clearly and hauntingly" (Martin Jaeggi). In the Age of CNN and Fox News, power means having absolute control over the image that people see of power. By taking photographs of the preparations, security measures, and other precautions needed to achieve this goal (while no one else, including all other photographers, was looking or paying attention), Spinatsch exposes the heroic iconography of power as a pompous lie. An absolute "must-have" title for Jules Spinatsch collectors. This copy is very prominently and beautifully signed in black ink-pen by Jules Spinatsch. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a great photography book. This is one of few such signed copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright, a pristine beauty. A rare signed copy thus. Jules Spinatsch's "Temporary Discomfort" was selected as one of the greatest photography books in "The Photobook". One of the most brilliant photographers of our time. A fine copy. ISBN 3037780479. Signed by Author.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. A photographic account of an Alpine town's extreme servitude to the World Economic Forum. Every January, for four days, a small town in the Swiss Alps is transformed into a Potemkin village. The World Economic Forum brings heads of state, politicians and activists to Davos, followed by global corporations who use the venue for international appearances, informal receptions and lobbying. The short-term demand for free, playable rooms, space and accommodation has far-reaching consequences: shops and apartments are vacant for most of the year in order to be rented out for horrendous sums during the event. In 2020, Facebook erected a temporary two-story pavilion, while at the same time a bookstore disappeared completely from the main street. Davos Is a Verb is the photographic documentation of this madness. Photographer Jules Spinatsch (born 1964) makes Davos visible as a fleeting world in which public space is reinterpreted and everything is in flux. AUTHOR: Jules Spinatsch (born 1964 in Davos) briefl y studied sociology in Zurich, then photography at the International Center of Photography ICP in New York. Since 2000, he has been working mainly on his own projects, which are published as monographs and shown as exhibitions, e.g. at the MoMA (NY) and the Tate Modern. In 2019 the comprehensive publication of the solo exhibition Semiautomatic Photography 20012020 at the Centre de la Photographie Geneve was published. Temporary Discomfort won the prize for the best photography book in Arles in 2005. SELLING POINT: . Mind-blowing photos show how a tiny Swiss mountain town completely transforms itself into a showroom for capitalism over the four days of the World Economic Forum. Hundred-years-old shops transform into LED advertisements for corporations, earning a years worth of income in just days. These photographs show the rapid transformation and impact of this global descent on the town of Davos. 190 images During the WEF, Davos becomes a modern Potemkin village.The photo artist Jules Spinatsch grew up in Davos and documents the paradoxical transformation of the city during the WEF.

Softcover. Condition: Sehr gut. Z : 21 x 30 cm, 352 Seiten zahlreiche Farbfotografien fadengeheftete Broschur - Jules Spinatsch begann vor 15 Jahren seine Arbeit mit automatischen Kameras, wie sie im Bereich der Überwachung öffentlicher Räume genutzt werden. Damals entstand ein aus 2.176 Einzelbildern bestehendes 180°-Panorama des Weltwirtschaftsforums in Davos. Die Werkgruppe, die den Titel Semiautomatic Photography trägt, setzte er u.a. mit Aufnahmen eines Fußballstadions, des Wiener Opernballs, eines Gefängnisses und der SAP-Zentrale fort. Das Buch Semiautomatic Photography zeigt nun erstmals den kompletten Zyklus. In ihm stellt Spinatsch ausgewählte Einzelbilder, die sonst ein winziges Element in den Bildpanoramen sind, in den Vordergrund. Ähnlich wie bei William S. Burroughs Cut-ups führt dieses »Herausschneiden« der Einzelfotos zu einer subversiven Bildstrategie, zur Reflexion der Funktion des Visuellen in einer Gesellschaft der Kontrolle.

Hardcover. Condition: Sehr gut. 1. Auflage. Z : 24 x 30 cm, 9 ½ x 11 ¾ in, 186 Seiten/pages, 115 Abbildungen/illustrations - Jules Spinatsch was at the World Economic Forum and also attended the G8 summits at Davos and Evian. But rather than street fighting and handshakes, Jules Spinatsch shows winter nights in Davos, complete with floodlighted barbed wire, containers being used as barricades in Genoa, lonely TV reporters outside broadcast vehicles and sleepy guards in New York. Temporary Discomfort shows people waiting for the big event, which is revealed as meticulously planned down to the last detail. Winner of the Prix du Livre, Rencontres d Arles 2005 Best Photography Book.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -Since the last financial crisis, a new practice has emerged in Davos: During to the World Economic Forum WEF, the main street is being temporarily rebuilt almost throughout. Freestanding pavilions are being constructed for events organized by companies, corporations and organizations, wall-filling banners are changing the Street scene, and business premises are being converted into communication spaces for the realization of the respective agenda - at horrendous rents.In his new work, Jules Spinatsch applies strategies of photo essays, concept photography and investigative journalism. Davos Is a Verb shows the aesthetics and behavior of the financial, technology and new media industries as well as politics: in shops, bars, clubs, hotels and even in museums and churches, where roundtable discussions, press conferences, but also parties and esoteric sessions take place. In this way, a parallel world beyond the official WEF zones becomes visible, where WEF participants, lobbyists, locals and tourists meet. Spinatsch also looks at vacant business premises, which are often only rented out during these few days. He sheds light on a practice that changes Davos not only in January, but permanently - whether out of greed, need, or a supposed lack of alternatives. Simultaneously insider and outsider, and with ironic distance, Spinatsch introduces us to this practice of disruptive pop-ups and puts it up for discussion. 304 pp. Englisch.
