Hardcover. First Edition. Half-bound black and grey boards with b&w photo-illustrated DJ with white and black lettering; 95 pp.; richly illustrated. "In Radiant Identities, photographer Jock Sturges explores issues of youth and the liberation of body and spirit. These unforgettable images are made from his own circle of acquaintances and family; the settings are their homes and stretches of naturist beaches in France and Northern California. In superb reproductions, Sturges evokes the classical spirit of Old Master paintings and late-nineteenth-century photographic tableaux, while probing concepts of emergent sexuality and psychological intimacy." "Radiant Identities is the second volume in Sturges's ongoing work. Physically and psychically revealing, these deeply felt images are gloriously natural and wonderfully compelling." "Elizabeth Beverly's introductory essay, drawn in part from conversations with Sturges's subjects, adds a new dimension to the photographs. These personal reflections shed light on the unique collaborative process by which Sturges's remarkable photographs are made." "In the book's afterword, noted photography critic A.D. Coleman places Sturges in the context of current debates surrounding censorship in the arts, and discusses the themes of innocence and sexuality in the photographs."--BOOK JACKET.

Gebundene Ausgabe. Condition: Very Good. Der Fotoband präsentiert eine Sammlung von Schwarz-Weiß-Porträts, die von dem amerikanischen Fotografen Jock Sturges geschaffen wurden. Die Aufnahmen entstanden vorwiegend an Naturistenstränden in Frankreich sowie an der Küste Kaliforniens. Im Zentrum der Arbeit stehen Heranwachsende und ihre Familien, die in natürlichen Umgebungen porträtiert werden. Die Fotografien zeichnen sich durch den Einsatz von Großformatkameras aus, was zu einer hohen Detailgenauigkeit und einer feinen Nuancierung der Grautöne führt. Das Werk setzt sich thematisch mit dem Übergang vom Kindsein zum Erwachsenwerden, der menschlichen Anatomie und der Beziehung zwischen Individuum und Natur auseinander.In den Rezensionen von Käufern wird häufig die technische Ausführung der Fotografien hervorgehoben. Die Abzüge und die drucktechnische Umsetzung werden für ihre tonale Tiefe und Schärfe gelobt. Viele Betrachter schätzen die ruhige, zeitlose Atmosphäre der Porträts sowie die Fähigkeit des Fotografen, das Vertrauen seiner Motive über längere Zeiträume hinweg zu dokumentieren. Kritische Stimmen setzen sich vor allem mit den dargestellten Motiven und der Wahrnehmung von Nacktheit im öffentlichen und künstlerischen Kontext auseinander.Redaktionelle Besprechungen betonen die handwerkliche Präzision und die klassische Komposition der Arbeiten. Publikationen wie The Boston Globe heben die Ausarbeitung der Gelatinesilberdrucke und das Spiel von Licht und Texturen hervor. Kritiker beschreiben die Dargestellten als würdevoll und poetisch, während die visuelle Sprache oft mit einer arkadischen oder naturverbundenen Ästhetik verglichen wird. Das Werk wird in der Fachkritik als eine konsequente Fortführung der künstlerischen Erkundung von Identität und Reifung eingeordnet. Book.…

Hardcover. Condition: gut. 01 edition. Natural innocents in family settings Before reviewing this book, let me caution potential readers and purchasers that the images contained in the book include many nudes of young female children. If such would be offensive to you, please stop reading here. Due to the nature of the the content and its subjects, this material would not be able to achieve an "R" rating for a motion picture. I would certainly have discouraged my daughters from appearing in these scenes. If you are not familiar with Jock Sturges, he presents a most unusual oeuvre. His subject is the physical, emotional, and psychological development of young girls. He portrays his subjects usually in nudist camps where they can be displayed more fully. Many of his models have appeared in his work since quite young ages. The images are usually taken outdoors with a large format camera, and are posed to create quite complex compositions. At the same time, he wants you to notice nuances in how the bodies are changing, the emotions are developing, and what the personalities are like. He uses the interaction with nature and the other models to bring out the point of each photograph, and lets time provide the rest of the perspective by repeatedly showing the same models over the years. In this work, you will usually see a model over 2-3 years. The images are very well reproduced on gorgeous paper. I found the duotone images generally better than the color ones, but the color images had a reason for being that caused them to be useful. They pick up the strong color of an eye, or show the connection in skin coloration with a sibling or parent. Beyond the natural beauty of the human form, you will find yourself impressed that the young people are pretty comfortable with the camera. I liked the poses where the teenage rebellion and awkwardnesses were showing at least a little. You will also be interested to see genetic influences as two sisters stand near one another, often with their mother. That creates a reflection of inner beauty that is quite remarkable. The drawbacks of this book's images come in that some scenes are so carefully constructed that they seem artificial and abstract, which steals humanity from the models. Also, the book contains no essay to explain the work. Some would benefit from some words to help them "see" what is contained here. A potential benefit of this book could be in helping female adolescents become more comfortable with their own developing bodies. That would probably have to be based on some private viewing.

Hardcover. Condition: gut. 1994. In Radiant Identities, photographer Jock Sturges explores issues of youth and the liberation of body and spirit. These unforgettable images are made from his own circle of acquaintances and family; the settings are their homes and stretches of naturist beaches in France and Northern California. In superb reproductions, Sturges evokes the classical spirit of Old Master paintings and late-nineteenth-century photographic tableaux, while probing concepts of emergent sexuality and psychological intimacy. Aperture's 1991 publication of Sturges's first book, The Last Day of Summer, came shortly after the FBI's much-publicized raid on his home in California, the confiscation of thousands of his images--deemed "pornographic"--and the subsequent rejection of the case by a federal grand jury. Now in its fifth printing, The Last Day of Summer has outlived and transcended that ordeal, drawing both critical and popular acclaim throughout the United States, Europe, and Asia, and bringnig Sturges well-deserved artistic recognition. Radiant Identities is the second volume in Sturges's ongoing work. Physically and psychically revealing, these deeply felt images are glorioiusly natural and wonderfully compelling. Elizabeth Beverly's introductory essay, drawn in part from conversations with Sturges's subjects, adds a new dimension to the photogarphs. These personal reflections shed light on the unique collaborative process by which Sturges's remarkable photographs are made. In the book's afterward, noted photography critic A.D. Coleman places Sturges in the context of current debates surrounding censorship in the arts, and discusses the themes of innocence and sexuality in the photographs.
