Hardcover. Condition: gut. 1999. Boris Mikhailov, geboren 1938 in der Ukraine, ist Fotograf und rückte in den letzten Jahren zusehends ins Rampenlicht der Kunstwelt. So hatte er Einzelausstellungen im Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam, in der Photographer's Gallery, London, und in der DAAD Galerie, Berlin. Seit Herbst 2000 unterrichtet Mikhailov an der Harvard University. Im Jahr 2000 erhielt er den Fotobuchpreis des Internationalen Festivals für Fotografie in Arles und den Hasselblad-Preis. Boris Mikhailov, whose "Unfinished Dissertation" was published in 1998, focuses in "Les Miserables" on what he believes is the result of the breakup of the former Soviet Union. Though Mikhailov considers the conditions of his particular place of residence for over 50 years crucial to his work, he is not providing a recollection of the specific history of Kharkov, Ukraine. Rather, he brings out the "condition humaine" in this city characterized by industry and factories, by newly installed Coca Cola billboards as well as socialist architecture. Kharkov provides the backdrop for Mikhailov's moving portraits describing the decay of both social structures and individual lives. We witness street kids taking drugs, adults in search of food, trying to re-install their social self by cleaning their bodies in the artist's own apartment. Despite devastating poverty, the women and men in Mikhailov's images look back at us with great dignity. Their eyes express an unbroken will to survive in a social system that has broken down completely. Mikhailov depicts the harshness of everyday life in a society not as far away from ours as we might think. Zusatzinfo 439 farb. Abb.

First Edition
First edition, first impression, of this study of homelessness and deprivation following the collapse of the Soviet Union. The Case History & Heiner Müller Project exhibition took place at the Haus der Kulturen der Welt, Berlin from 23 November 2001 to 20 January 2002. "The work itself can be difficult to look at. The color, life-size prints are unsparing in their documentation of the disease and frailty of Mikhailov's subjects, and the grit and grime of their humble surroundings. Directed to stand naked, clothes in hand, some appear, in his words, 'like people going to gas chambers.' Others share heartbreaking moments of tenderness, while a few appear comatose with drink" (Little). Parr & Badger Vol II, p. 309. Myles Little, "Wrecked: Boris Mikhailov's 'Case History'", Time, 31 May 2011. Quarto. Original white paper-covered boards, titles to spine in black. With dust jacket. With 431 photographic illustrations in colour. Couple of light marks to rear cover, 6.5 cm split to rear inner hinge, remains firm, illustrations sharp. A very good copy indeed, in very good dust jacket, slight lifting to laminate on lower edges, couple of nicks, a little light soiling, else clean, illustrations bright.

Martin Parr and Gerry Badger, The Photobook A History, vol 2, page 309. Hardback with jacket. 235 x 170 mm (9 1/4 x 6 3/4 in). 480 pages. 431 colour photographs. Introduction by Boris Mikhailov; conversation between Ilya Kabakov and Victor Tupitsyn. Edited Alexis Schwarzenbach. Design by Hans Werner Holzwarth. Text in english. Perfect condition! Signed by the artist! Collector`s copy! Mikhailov is well-known for many famous photobooks. Beside "Case History" also for "Unfinished Dissertation" or "By the ground. At dusk." (all mentioned in Martin Parr, The Photobook). Born in the former Soviet Union Boris Mikhailov (born 1938) lived and worked for several decades in his hometown Kharkov, Ukraine. He received an education as an engineer and started to teach himself the practice of photography. Today he is one of the most successful and well-known photographers, who already was actively working in soviet times. His work very much is influenced in the means of Concept-Art and Social-Documentary-Photography. At the end of the 1960s he had his first exhibition. After the KGB found nude-pictures of his wife he was set off his job as an engineer and started to full-time work with photography. He shot a series of everyday-life scenes-documentation. "The break-up of the former Soviet union has brutally torn apart the social fabric across all of its former territories. Building a civil society and a functioning market economy will take a long time. Meanwhile, there are many who have lost everything-their jobs, their homes, their social network, their identity-roaming the streets, scrambling for food and alcohol, looking for a place to sleep. Boris Mikhailov has followed their lives for a number of years. Case History is a collective portrait of those whose lives have fallen apart amidst the turmoil of epochal change, people whom history has left behind. Street kids getting high, adults looking for food, dirt-covered men and women washing themselves in Mikhailov`s apartment, homeless people caressing each other`s decrepit bodies: unflinchingly brutal and yet dignified images of aspects of the human condition that we prefer to repress." "It seems to me that my personal uncertainty (it is not clear where I live-in Kharkov or somewhere in the West, where I work, etc.), my instability in society, on the formal level, has transformed the border between documentary and scenery within the framework of the documentary." "Case History is not just a chronicle of the crass reality of a historical transition. It is a ravishing work of art offering a bold, radically candid perspective on the human body, its weakness, and mortality. Mikhailov shows us how history has inscribed itself on the bodies of these Ukrainian homeless. He investigates the gruesome physical marks of social change. Gentle and brutal, wry and sad, a book that presents life in all of its contradictions and extremes." (from the publisher)***************Scalo, Zürich. 1999. Erstausgabe. Originalausgabe.
