Seller: ModernRare, CHICAGO, IL, U.S.A.
First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: As New. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. 22 pages. Published in 2001. Exhibition Catalog. The first and only edition. Published in a small and limited print run as a softcover original only. There is no ISBN. The Exhibition Catalog is now scarce. An austerely elegant production by David W. Williams: Regular-sized volume format. Pictorial softcovers with titles on the cover, as issued. Photographs by Leon Levinstein. Introduction/Reminiscence by the legendary Helen Gee, one of the earliest supporters of then-nascent photographers like Levinstein as well as Robert Frank. Printed on pristine-white, thick coated stock paper in the United States to the highest standards. Without DJ, as issued. Published on the occasion of the landmark exhibition of the same name held at the Stephen Daiter Gallery Chicago from December 14, 2001 through January 12, 2002. Presents "Leon Levinstein: That's Where The Life Is". Some of his finest and most representative images. One of the best photographers of the "Chicago School", Levinstein is much better-known in Europe than in the United States. A rigorous formalist, his photographs capture American life in a way that is singularly his own: Levinstein was a Master of capturing not just the physical "moves", but the very pulse and natural rhythm of the subjects he photographed. Children and adults walk, run, play, swing, and sway - and also pause, stop, and remain still - beautifully in Levinstein's photographs. Hence the aptness of Helen Gee's essay, "That's Where The Life Is". Annie Leibovitz has expressed profound admiration for Levinstein's "moving" pictures, commenting that the technique required was something she herself did not possess. An absolute "must-have" title for Leon Levinstein collectors. This title is a contemporary art photography classic. This is one of few copies of the Exhibition Catalog still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. A scarce copy thus. 17 duotone plates. One of the finest photographers of the 20th century. A fine copy. no.

"American street photographer Leon Levinstein is much admired within the photographic community, but little known outside of it. Solo exhibitions at the National Gallery of Canada in 1995 and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York in 2010 brought him to the attention of many, but his dynamic and original work is yet to achieve the recognition it deserves. Levinstein`s fearless and unsentimental black and white images, whether shot in New York City, Coney Island, Haiti, Mexico or India, possess in Metropolitan Museum of Art Curator of Photographs Jeff Rosenheim`s words, "graphic virtuosity - seen in raw, expressive gestures and seemingly monumental bodies - balanced by an unusual compassion for his off-beat subjects". In 1975, at the age of 65, Levinstein received a grant from the John Simon Guggenheim Foundation. His intention, in his own words, was to photograph "as wide a spectrum of the American scene as my experience and vision will allow". This long-awaited book fulfils this ambitious goal."

Il fotografo di strada americano Leon Levinstein è molto ammirato all'interno della comunità fotografica, ma poco conosciuto al di fuori di essa. Le immagini in bianco e nero di Levinstein, senza paura e senza sentimentalismi, scattate a New York, Coney Island, Haiti, Messico o India, possiedono, secondo le parole del curatore delle fotografie del Metropolitan Museum of Art Jeff Rosenheim, "un virtuosismo grafico - nei gesti crudi ed espressivi e nei corpi apparentemente monumentali - bilanciato da un'insolita compassione per i suoi eccentrici soggetti". Nel 1975, all'età di 65 anni, Levinstein ricevette una sovvenzione dalla Fondazione John Simon Guggenheim. La sua intenzione, secondo le sue stesse parole, era "fotografare il più ampio spettro della scena americana che la mia esperienza e la mia visione possano permettere". Questo libro tanto atteso realizza questo ambizioso obiettivo. Book.
