One of the most beautiful photography books of our time. Limited Edition of 2750 copies. The first and only edition.

Presents Brad Temkin's "Private Places". A warmer, sunnier, and more radiant view of Chicago, which has a well-deserved reputation as the "dead-of-winter". People with chilly scenes of winter in mind can be forgiven if they think that this sun-drenched view of Chicago is sheer fantasy, literally impossible. Impossible to imagine perhaps, but here they are for real: Luxuriant and glorious gardens in Wicker Park, Lakeview, Pilsen, Edgewater, Ravenswood, Skokie, and Bucktown, among other places. "Brad Temkin has captured something poignant and wonderful about the human urge to be in harmony with Nature even in the bleakest and most urban circumstances" (Corcoran Gallery of Art). If you have a green thumb or love gardens, you will pore and linger over every image in this book again and again. Still, its greatest achievement is that you do not have to have a garden to be captivated by and become addicted to it. An absolute "must-have" title for Brad Temkin collectors.

This is one of few copies of the Limited Edition still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Brad Temkin did NOT sign most copies. Copies available online have serious flaws or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A scarce copy thus. 52 color plates. One of the finest American photographers of our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER BRAD TEMKIN TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 1930066414. no.

Hardcover. Condition: Used - Very Good. 'A garden has this advantage, that it makes it indifferent where you live. A well-laid garden makes the face of the country of no account; let that be low or high, grand or mean, you have made a beautiful abode worthy of man.' Thousands of Chicagoans have taken Ralph Waldo Emerson's words…to heart, and they have shared their 'beautiful abodes' with photographer Brad Temkin. His' Private Places' offers an intimate glimpse into the personal gardens of Chicago residents, exploring how they carved out these quiet spaces of flora and greenery in the cityscape of concrete and brick. Temkin's camera lens captures the lushness and vibrancy of these backyard gardens, roving over the diverse natural and artificial elements contained in each. His images chronicle how gardens are safe havens for these city dwellers, places where they can read, meditate, relax, and enjoy the experience of working with the soil and its fruits. Temkin notes, 'The small gardens have bits and pieces of the person who owns them; found objects that are dear to them, keepsakes, statues, and personal items that reveal the person behind it.' The motto of the city of Chicago is 'Urbs in horto,' a Latin phrase meaning 'city in a garden.' Temkin's compelling photographs reveal the flip side of the motto--'garden in a city'--as' Private Places' unearths the richly sensual world of the natural tucked away behind the clustered town houses and brick edifices of Chicago's residential neighborhoods.

Hardback. Condition: New. An abstract and surreal vision of the transformation of waterChicago photographer Brad Temkin (born 1956) brings attention to the visual and ecological beauty of the transformation of water, by showing the structures and processes that most people do not even think about. Most storm water runoff is cons…idered waste, yet more than 700 cities reclaim and reuse wastewater and storm water with combined sewer systems, recycling it for agricultural uses and even drinking water. As we mimic nature and separate the impurities like sludge, salt or chemicals, a transformation occurs. Temkin believes it matters less what each structure really is used for, or whether the water pictured is pure or waste. He is drawn to the strangeness of these forms and the distorted sense of scale. Moving beyond mere description, he embraces the abstract and surreal landscape of water transformation. Temkin has received a Guggenheim Fellowship for his work, which is collected in museums throughout the United States.
