Redlands : Philip Brookman
, Steidl Publishers, 2015 Hardcover, 207 pages, ENG, 235 x 160 x 20 mm, dustjacket ( has a few minor scars) book itself is in Perfect condition, illustrated in colour. ISBN 9783869306865.
Redlands weaves together an intimate sequence of photographs and a short story by Philip Brookman, set in California, Mexico and New York City during the unsettled decades of the 1960s and 1970s. Brookman uses fiction and images from his own photographic diaries to create a first-person account of Kip, an artist who wanders back and forth between farmworkers and poets-between California and New York-seeking the meaning of his mother's death. When Kip learns that he can't trust the eyewitness accounts of his sister, he picks up a camera to find meaning in his own experience. By juxtaposing the oppositional strategies of fiction and documentary practice to find an invented narrative, Redlands questions the veracity of logical observation and embraces the poetry of the real world.

Robert Frank : Moving Out.
, National Gallery of Art, 1994 Hardcover, 335 pages, ENG, 300 x 245 x 35 mm, dustjacket, NEW, illustrated with photographs in colour / b/w. ISBN 9781881616269.
Robert Frank is one of the most important photographers to have emerged since World War II. In the early 1950s he pioneered an original and sophisticated way of looking at the world that has dominated the art of photography for many years. It was not simply the raw style of his work that made Frank so controversial. Nor was it only his subjects - gas stations, roadside cafes or cars - which he explored in his highly influential book The Americans. Rather it was the combination of all these things, plus Frank's ability to express the loneliness and isolation so characteristic of our age. His powerful images have profoundly influenced successive generations of photographers, painters, film makers, critics and writers. In five specially commisioned essays, scholars draw upon the National Gallery of Art's archive of Frank's vintage prints, negatives, contact sheets, and work prints to provide a comprehensive examination of his landmark contribution to the art of photography and film.

Piet Mondrian behind his easel, Igor Stravinsky at his piano, Max Ernst sitting smoking on his throne-like chair: Arnold Newman's photographs are classics of portraiture. His subtle arrangements constituted the foundations of "environmental portraiture." His photographs integrate the respective artist's characteristic equipment and surroundings, thus indicating his or her field of activity. The enormous fame of Newman's portraits can be ascribed to their daring compositions and sometimes astounding spatial structures. The photographer's beginnings, on the other hand, were none too promising. During the Great Depression Newman had to abandon his art studies for financial reasons. Between 1938 and 1942 he concentrated on socio-documentary photography in the ghettos of West Palm Beach, Philadelphia, and Baltimore. One might think that being forced to earn his living in a photography studio would have stifled his artistic potential: Newman portrayed up to 70 clients a day. Yet he still succeeded in developing a very personal touch and establishing himself in the New York art scene of the early 1940s. His subjects included Max Ernst, Marcel Duchamp, Marc Chagall, Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning and Alexander Calder. With his unmistakable style, Newman became the star photographer of artists, writers and musicians.
