Hardcover. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 228 pages. Published in 2002. Landmark collection of contemporary Latin-American art photography. One of the most important and most beautiful art photography books of its kind ever published in our time. The first and only edition. Published in a small and limited print run as hardcover original only that sold out shortly after publication. The First Edition is now rare. A brilliant production by Wim Melis: Regular-sized volume format. Pictorial hard boards with copper cloth overboards and titles on the cover and spine, as issued. Photographs by various contributors, THE Who's Who of contemporary Latin-American photography. You name him or her, he or she is in this book (until the turn of the 21st century). Curated with text by Wim Melis. Text by various other expert/specialists. Printed on pristine-white, archival stock paper in Amsterdam, The Netherlands to the highest standards. Without DJ, as issued. Published on the occasion of the Nooderlicht Photography Festival, which was held in various venues, in 2002. Presents "Mundos Creados: Latin-American Photography". The ground-breaking European retrospective festival on contemporary Latin-American art photography. Produced as a handy reference guide to its subject, Wim Melis divides his book into two parts: "Mundos Creados I" and "Mundos Creados II", with an extended Epilogue. The exhibition itself was divided into four parts, as a "quadrivium", to make the rich subject more easily digestible. Collectively, they capture the vitality, diversity, and beauty of contemporary Latin-American art photography. Luis Gonzalez Palma opens "Mundos Creados I". So many names are not yet familiar to most reader-viewers, but their work speaks for itself. They will astonish, surprise, and delight. And of course, the works of Graciela Iturbide, Flor Garduno, Mario Cravo Neto, and Miguel Rio Branco are also here, in all their transcendent beauty and power. An absolute "must-have" title for Luis Gonzalez Palma and contemporary art photography collectors. This copy is very prominently and beautifully signed in black ink-pen on his Contribution by Luis Gonzalez Palma. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. The latter opens "Mundos Creados I", a distinct honor. This title is a contemporary art photography classic. As far as we know, this is the only such signed copy of the Exhibition Monograph available online and despite its slight imperfection (slight pinch on top of the front board corner, but it's there) is still in fine condition overall: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: This pioneering book will probably not materialize again because all of the copies sold out upon publication, most of them spirited away by Rare Book library and private collections. A rare signed copy thus. Hundreds of plates. Some of the greatest artist/photographers of our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER LUIS GONZALEZ PALMA TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 9076703191.

"Showcases the unique genius of photographer Mario Algaze, whose deep appreciation and understanding of the nuances of light - sunlight pouring in through church windows, illuminating a pair of teacups on a cafe table, casting late-afternoon shadows on a cobblestoned street - is both legendary and rare. An exquisite and comprehensive collection of work by the Cuban-American photographer who, after being exiled from his homeland at the age of thirteen, traveled extensively in Central and South America, capturing the spirit of Latin America through his lens and seeking a connection with his cultural roots. Represents the full breadth of the artist's work, culled from over three decades of travel in sixteen different countries. Algaze has steadily built a sum-view of Spanish-speaking countries that no other photographer has done before or since" (Publisher's blurb). "There is a sense of something else, of something more: A world evolving, a lover scorned, a crime of passion about to be committed, in Mario Algaze's black-and-white photographs. Considered one of the masters of the art, he manages to capture evocative scenes that live beyond the images frozen by his camera" (Miami Herald). An absolute "must-have" title for Mario Algaze collectors. This copy is very boldly and beautifully signed in pencil on the front free endpaper by Mario Algaze. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a contemporary photography classic. 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. Please note: Algaze did NOT sign most copies of the book. A rare signed copy thus. Lavishly illustrated with black-and-white plates. One of the finest Latin-American photographers of our time. A fine collectible copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER MARIO ALGAZE TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0991341961. Signed by Author.
