Robert Adams - A Portrait in Landscapes Kerstin Adams has often accompanied her husband Robert when he has photographed the rural West. On those trips he would sometimes turn, after making a picture of the landscape, and make another that included her. "Kerstin loves the forest and prairie and shore," Adams writes, "which is part of my love for her. When we are there, portraiture and landscape seem one; she shares nature's glory, and nature is warmed by her caring." A Portrait in Landscapes reproduces a selection of these linked pictures, together with related views. They span almost forty years. Most have not been published before. This volume might itself be understood as a letter. The pictures reproduced in this book record their affection for the places they have been, and for each other. Printed in an edition of only 500 copies, this beautiful artist's book is printed in duotone on matt art paper and bound in Japanese cloth. A must-have for the collectors of this important photographer's books, and a heartwarming testament to the power of human love. First edition (now listed as sold out by the publisher), blind-embossed cloth-bound hardcover with dustjacket, 2005, Nazraeli Press, 9.5x8.75", 42 duotone plates. Signed by Robert Adams. ONE AVAILABLE. $99.00. |

NEW! Thomas Allen - Uncovered Thomas Allen selects the pulpiest of pulp paperbacks and then lovingly slices out a figure from the cover, gently folds it into position, and constructs a witty scene around it. In Thirst, a sultry dame reaches from her cover toward a guy with a bottle on a nearby volume; in Teeter a man careens toward the edge of a stack of paperbacks ready to topple. Well suited to the three-dimensional heft of a board book, the images in Uncovered are combined into an almost toylike object that will delight photography lovers, graphic designers, and bibliophiles with a sense of humor. First Edition, Board book with die-cut cover, 2007 Aperture, 8.5x7", 27 four-color plates, 48 Pages. Signed by Thomas Allen. $45.00. Emi Anrakuji - (See Limited Edition section below) |

Man Ray - American Artist (by Neil Baldwin) Man Ray is the quintessential modernist figure - painter, sculptor, photographer, filmmaker, poet, and philosopher. One of the most fascinating of the Surrealists who transformed the Paris art world during the 1920s, Man Ray was an enigma - a Dadist who revered the Old Masters, an anarchist pursued by wealthy patrons. Driven to make his mark in as many art forms as pssible, he struggled bitterly to win acceptance as a painter even as his skill as a photographer brought him worldwide fame. Written with the close cooperation of his widow, Juliet, Man Ray is the definitive story of the life and times of one of the greatest modern artists, a man whose influence on culture resonates even today. Second Paperback Edition, 1988, Da Capo Press, 9.25x6.25". Signed by Neil Baldwin. $22.50 |

Martin Parr - MEXICO For much of his career, Martin Parr has excelled at skewering the eccentricities and peculiarities of contemporary national culture in his native Great Britain and beyond-in particular those having to do with food, tourism, bad fashion choices, and . . . more food. On a recent exploratory trip to Mexico, Parr was struck not only by the native culture, but also by the clear impact on Mexican life of America's pop culture and economy-the juxtaposition of Mickey Mouse with brightly colored saints, Nike logos with Day of the Dead skulls, and Coca Cola with cacti. The limited editon of Mexico is accompanied by an orginal, signed 8x10" print (Tijuana, Mexico, 2003 - shown here). This signed and numbered hardcover copy of Mexico is housed in a specially designed slipcase (mouse-over image at left to view slipcase). Limited, numbered edition of 100 copies. 2006, Aperture, 8.5x11.5", 88 pp. Rare and very limited. Signed by Martin Parr. $550.00. |
