48 pp.; 28 x 21.6 cm.; sewn bound; slipcase; black-and-white & color; edition size unknown; unsigned and unnumbered; offset-printed "In November of 1991 Robert Frank went to Beirut on a commission to photograph the city's devastated downtown in the aftermath of the Lebanese civil war (1975-1990). Much of the work he did there, together with that of five other photographers with whom he shared the assignment, was put together in Beirut City Centre by Editions du Cypres in 1992. Alongside that commissioned work, he also made Polaroids of the city and its environs, which, on his return home, he stowed away in his studio. It was only many years later that he considered those images again, and used them to create a sketchbook's worth of Polaroid collages. Come Again is a facsimile reprint of that notebook. In recent years Frank has worked almost exclusively with Polaroids, exploring the collage and assemblage possibilities of the instant photograph. Come Again, which comes as a sewn softcover in a paper bag, printed with special four-color matte inks and a Polaroid varnish, offers insight into the early stages of Frank's experimentation with the Polaroid and presents a previously unseen artist's book." -- publisher's statement.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Fine condition faux red leather boards with elaborately illustrated gold front cover perimeter and spine decorations, gold front cover lettering, and gold spine lettering over a black block border. Includes Editor's Comment and Acknowledgments. Major chapter headings are as follows: Wisdom; Benjamin Franklin; History; Beauty and Business. "Sometimes it seems almost futile to try to write anything new because it has all been said before - and so well said. Of course, any such defeatism must lead to a dead end of accomplishment in terms of literary effort. Fortunately for the living and those to come, there are many bright new stars on the panel of contemporary writers. They are skillfully telling the story of these eventful days and their words will be read with relish by future generations. In fact, the printed word today is so prolific, and the competition with the book, the magazine and the newspaper is so great, future generations will require anthologies in great number to know what our bright literary stars have said. In this anthology there has bee no effort to be erudite, consistent, unusual or educational. The prime purpose is to amuse by exposing the reader to many things he has read before and may wish to read again. Perhaps that poem he [or she] HAD to learn, to pass freshman English, is here. He may even enjoy rereading it under different auspices. It is not possible to include only those things that appeal to him. If he dislikes poetry in any form, we hope he will please forgive us. Some of us like the "well-turned couplet." On the other hand, there are those who love Shakespeare, but just cannot understand how his hallowed words should appear with some of the more commonplace choices that have arrived in this selection. It takes all kinds you know - and we have tried to select all kinds of literature." - excerpt from Editor's Comment.

Facsimile del quaderno di polaroids-collages realizzato dal fotografo all'interno del progetto fotografico ''Beirut, city centre, 1996'' (Editions du Cypres, Paris), anni dopo la pubblicazione ufficiale delle foto di Frank e di altri 5 fotografi Design: Robert Frank & Gerhard Steidl. Cm 28x22. pp. 52. . Ottimo (Fine). . Prima edizione (First Edition/First Printing). . Nel novembre 1991 Robert Frank fu invitato a Beirut con l'incarico di fotografare il centro devastato della città dopo la fine della guerra civile libanese (1975-1990). Insieme al lavoro di altri cinque fotografi, il suo lavoro fu inserito nel libro "Beirut City Centre" (1992). Accanto al suo lavoro su commissione Frank realizzò molte Polaroid della città, archiviandole nel suo studio al suo ritorno a casa. Molti anni dopo riprese in mano le immagini decidendo di intitolare l'opera "Come Again" e lasciando il libro degli schizzi così come lo aveva originariamente realizzato a Beirut. "Come Again" è una ristampa facsimile di quel lavoro. Negli ultimi anni Robert Frank ha lavorato quasi esclusivamente con le polaroid. "Come Again" offre uno spaccato delle prime fasi della sperimentazione dell'artista con questo mezzo e costituisce un vero e proprio libro d'artista mai visto prima.

"In 1991, Robert Frank went to Beirut to photograph the city's devastation after the Civil War (1975-1990). He also made Polaroids which, upon his return home, he kept for himself. Many years later, he looked at those images again, and decided to create a sketchbook's worth of Polaroids. Robert Frank has worked almost exclusively with Polaroid in recent years, exploring the collage and assemblage possibilities of the instant photograph" (Gerhard Steidl). Frank's images of a devastated land capture in a rigorous documentary format a universal human tragedy as well as his own personal turmoil and pain. "He can portray real pain and capture profound depths of human emotion better than almost any other photographer; indeed, better than almost any other artist in any medium" (Martin Parr and Gerry Badger). Robert Frank died on September 9, 2019 at the age of 94 as the greatest photographer of our time. An absolute "must-have" title for Robert Frank collectors.

Robert Frank ist berühmt die "Die Amerikaner", für viele das wichtigste und einflußreichste Fotobuch der Welt und aller Zeiten (Andrew Roth, Book of 101 Books, Seite 150/151. Martin Parr, The photobook, vol 1, Seite 247. Hasselblad Center, Seite 176/177. 802 books of the M.+M. Auer collection, Seite 375). In November 1991 Robert Frank was invited to Beirut on a commission to photograph the devastated downtown of the city following the end of the Lebanese civil war (1975-1990). Together with the work of five other photographers, his work was included in a book, Beirut City Centre (1992). Alongside his work on the commission he made many Polaroids of the city which he stored in his studio on his return home. Many years later he reconsidered the images and decided to title the work Come Again, but he left the sketch book as he had originally made it in Beirut. Come Again is a facsimile reprint of that piece. In recent years Robert Frank has worked almost exclusively with Polaroids. Come Again offers insight into the early stages of the artist's experimentation with this medium and presents a previously unseen artist's book.***************Steidl, Göttingen. 2006.

"Im November 1991 wurde Robert Frank nach Beirut eingeladen, um die zerstörte Altstadt zu fotografieren - nach 15 Jahren hatte der Bürgerkrieg im Libanon endlich sein Ende gefunden. Mit den Arbeiten fünf anderer Fotografen wurden Franks Fotografien 1992 in dem Buch »Beirut City Centre« veröffentlicht. Parallel zu seiner Auftragsarbeit entstanden zahlreiche Polaroids von der Stadt, die nach seiner Rückkehr in Archivkisten verschwanden. Einige Jahre später erinnerte sich Robert Frank dieser Aufnahmen, die er bereits in Beirut zu einem Album montiert hatte. Dieses Künstler-Buch, Come Again, wird nun erstmals vorgelegt - in seiner originalen Gestalt als Faksimile-Reprint." (Verlagstext) Robert Frank, geboren 1924 in Zürich, ging 1947 in die Vereinigten Staaten. 1958 erschien sein Buch The Americans, ein bahnbrechendes Werk, das aus ganz neuer Perspektive auf die Amerikaner blickte und die Ästhetik des Fotobuchs revolutionierte. Weitere seiner Bücher sind Black White and Things und The Lines of My Hand. Zu seinen wichtigsten Filmen zählen Pull My Daisy und Cocksucker Blues. Franks Arbeiten werden weltweit ausgestellt, zuletzt waren die "Storylines" im Tate Modern, London zu sehen. Robert Frank lebt in New York und im kanadischen Nova Scotia.
