Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 132 pages. Published in 2002. Landmark collection of photographs. One of the most beautiful photography books of our time. 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. The First Edition is now rare. A brilliant production by Chris Steele-Perkins: Oversize-volume format. Red cloth boards with black titles embossed on spine, as issued. Photographs by Chris Steele-Perkins. Printed on pristine-white, thick coated stock paper in Italy to the highest standards. In pictorial DJ with titles on the cover and spine, as issued. Presents Steele-Perkins' "Fuji: Images of Contemporary Japan". Photographs of the dynamic and complex country. Unlike any other documentary, landscape, or street photography (all of which he draws upon), Steele-Perkins has struck upon an arrestingly simple idea for his portrait of a whole nation: Every single one of the photographs has Mount Fuji in it, visible in the background, looming over Japan, whether it's Tokyo, Kyoto, or a small town, village, and ricefield. It is easy to overlook what Chris Steele-Perkins has pulled off, and his achievement therefore deserves to be emphasized: He has made us keenly aware once again of the background, which we have come habitually to ignore when looking at photographs. His approach is subtle, cunning, and instructive in every image: Mount Fuji is the background in varying degrees of recession, sometimes looming over the horizon and too close for comfort, sometimes remote and distant, omnipresent yet never the main subject. While the Eiffel Tower is the concrete visual symbol of Paris, it does not symbolize France whereas to every Japanese (and every tourist), Mount Fuji is the enduring symbol of Japan. The idea is unrepeatable because there is no other mountain that any other people have vested with such symbolism. Mount Fuji was a central aspect of Japan's imperial - and ultimately disastrous - ambitions, remains a part of every important ceremony to this day, and continually reminds the Japanese people that they have once risen mightily, fallen shamefully, and risen triumphantly again, an economic powerhouse and the most advanced artistic culture in Asia today. The idea for the book was inspired by Hokusai's masterpiece, "The Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji". Hokusai discovered the Western notion of perspective through Dutch etching and radically transformed the Japanese wood-block print. As strange as it may sound, his resulting prints have a depth of field that is best described as photographic, and part of Steele-Perkins' achievement is to show precisely that fact in his own images. "Hokusai would have welcomed him as a worthy successor" (Ian Buruma). An absolute "must-have" title for Chris Steele-Perkins collectors. This copy is very prominently and beautifully signed in black ink-pen on the title page by Chris Steele-Perkins. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a great art photography book. As far as we know, this is the only such signed copy of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. A rare signed copy thus. 105 color plates. One of the greatest photographers of our time. A fine collectible copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER CHRIS STEELE-PERKINS TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 1884167128.

Condition: Good. Collage and Mixed media. 20 x 14 inches.Signed in various ways.There are about 45 pieces in this series, using Mt. Fuji, the patinas of Japan, Kimono patterns, calligraphy in a general cruciform composition. This collage painting is 20 x 27 inches. Many from this series are larger, using a full sheet of 40 x 27 inches and then larger diptychs, 40 x 54 inches.The materials used are varied, creamy Stucco Patch, Paper Tape with asphalt center, corrugated and folded Construction Siding Paper. The siding paper is three layers with tan craft paper sheets on either side, and a asphalt film sandwiched in between. You can buy this at any construction material output or many hardware stores. (Great for doing large figure drawings. It comes in a roll, so you can make it any length.)Hard to find now is the Craft Packaging Tape, approximately 2 1/2 inches wide, with a water-based glue backing. It comes in a big roll. It too is made up of paper on either side, with asphalt, and, thin pieces of nylon string crisscrossing in between for strength. (It's almost phased out now and being substituted with clear box tape.) Both of these paper materials will leach the asphalt, when you coat them with mineral spirits thinned down oil-based paints. The corrugated cardboard has been impregnated with the asphalt using a milky consistency white oil paint wash over it.Stanley Grosse was born in St. Louis, Missouri in 1930 and began his art education in 1950 at Los Angeles Trade Tech/commercial art division. In 1952 to 1954, Mr. Grosse was stationed at the Army language school, Monterey, California where he was noncom in charge of the Printing Lab and Art Department.In 1954, Stanley entered the California College of Arts and Crafts and graduated cum laude. In 1956 he began his teaching career on the San Francisco Peninsula. Grosse was awarded three sabbatical leaves, the first on a scholarship, finishing his masters in painting at the Instituto Allende, San Miguel Allende, Mexico in 1964.A second sabbatical leave took him to Europe using a small town in Spain as a hub. He worked in the studio there, producing two series of works and traveled 14,000 miles through Europe and North Africa. Photographing,

Die Serie OHIOO erzählt von einem Zeitpunkt in der Geschichte der Fotografie, an dem sich eine neue Bildsprache zu entwickeln begann. Ohio tells the story of a moment in the history of photography when a new visual language began to take shape. Joachim Brohm (Jg. 1955) reiste 1983/84 nach seinem Studium in Essen (visuelle Kommunikation und Fotografie) mit einem Fulbright Stipendium in die USA. An der Ohio State University absolvierte er unter Allan Sekula seinen Master of Fine Arts, in dieser Zeit entstand seine Serie "Ohio 1983/84" in Farbe! Die Farbfotografie war trotz des Durchbruchs von William Eggleston im Jahr 1976 noch nicht durchgehend etabliert. Brohm wagte einen weiteren Bruch, er fotografierte banale, profane Motive, den US-amerikanischen Alltags. "Dies und die Verwendung der Farbfotografie machten die Ohio'-Serie zu einem bedeutenden Experiment auf der Suche nach einer neuen Bildsprache." (Thomas Weski, ehemals Chefkurator am Haus der Kunst, München und Herausgeber des Buches (STEIDL, 2009)). VG Bild-Kunst, 2026.
