"Boris Mikhailov is regarded as one of the most important artists in contemporary photography. His latest artist`s book is dedicated to the hitherto little-known work Series of Four, which he produced in his hometown Kharkiv (USSR) in the early 1980s. The photographs exemplify Mikhailov as an attentive observer of the Soviet world, beyond the official ideology in a time of perceived stagnation, but also as an experimental artist in the environment of the Moscow Conceptualists. With more than 150 image groups and a text by Luisa Heese, the book offers for the first time a comprehensive overview of the Series of Four. It accompanies the solo exhibition Boris Mikhailov: The Space Between Us at Staatliche Kunsthalle Baden-Baden 2019/20." (from the publisher)***************Koenig Books, London.

Condition: Wie neu. Verlag der Buchhandlung Walther König, Cologne. 2011. First edition, first printing. Mint, new, unread. Hardback with jacket. 293 x 210 mm. 240 pages. 200 color plates. With text by the artist. Text in german, english and russian. Perfect condition! Collector`s copy! Mikhailov is well-known for many famous photobooks. Beside "Case History" (Martin Parr and Gerry Badger, The Photobook A History, vol 2, page 309) also for "Unfinished Dissertation" or "By the ground. At dusk." (all mentioned in Martin Parr, The Photobook). "For Boris Mikhailov, societal changes are most clearly visible in small, everyday events. While the waiter in Ukraine would still be asking "tea or coffee?" during the Soviet era, the question today is "tea, coffee, cappuccino?" In his newest works (2000 - 2010), Mikhailov tackles precisely these changes and captures-as he has already in "By the Ground / At Dusk" (Oktagon, 1996)-daily life in his hometown Charkow. In this collection of more than 200 colour photographs, the West is perceptible everywhere in the form of huge, colourful advertising banners, but the promises of the Orange Revolution, that everything would get better, have only been fulfilled for few. Through palliating nothing, transfiguring nothing, Mikhailov attempts to sensitise the view of the observer. The individual pictures and scenes create a large tableau of society that tells us more about the Ukraine and its inhabitants than any specialised book."

Wenn zu Sowjetzeiten die Kellner in der Ukraine noch fragten: "Tee oder Kaffee?", lautet die Frage heute: "Tee, Kaffee, Cappuccino?" In seinen neuesten Arbeiten (2000-2010) setzt sich Mikhailov mit genau diesen Veränderungen auseinander und hält - wie schon in "Am Boden / Die Dämmerung" (1996) - den Alltag in seiner Heimatstadt Charkow fest. In den mehr als 200 Farbphotographien ist der Westen in Form von großen bunten Werbebannern überall spürbar, aber das Versprechen der Orangenen Revolution, daß alles besser werde, hat sich nur für die wenigsten erfüllt. Indem Mikhailov nichts beschönigt, nichts verklärt, will er den Blick des Betrachters sensibilisieren. Die einzelne Bilder und Szenen ergeben ein großes gesellschaftliches Tableau, das uns mehr von der Ukraine und ihren Bewohner erzählt als jede wissenschaftliche Arbeit."

Hardcover with jacket. 213 x 270 mm. 199 pages. Edited by: Urs Stahel. Text: Ekaterina Degot, Anne von der Heiden. Text in english and german. Perfect condition! Collector`s copy! "The creator of radical and poetic work, Boris Mikhailov focuses his camera on people`s everyday life, capturing both the social and historical conditions in the Soviet Union and the changes that occurred after 1989, with the breakdown of order in the Ukraine. In the 1970s, Mikhailov started to photograph "life the way it is." He dealt with the "city without a main street," the anti-heroic, the incidental, the private sphere and leisure time in the Soviet Union. His book Case History, a heart-wrenching monument to the forgotten losers of system change, documented the plight of the homeless in the Ukraine after the collapse of the Soviet Union. The critical aspects of his photographs, provocative performances and combinations of words and images make Mikhailov a conceptual documentary artist who creates moving images of the wounded human soul - simultaneously full of humor and seriousness. This book is dedicated to Mikhailov`s entire oeuvre. Essays on individual works and periods run together with a flow of images to underline his different photographic techniques and to deepen our understanding of a rich work that intentionally seems unspectacular."
