Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The canonical 1977 American photobook returns to print in a new, definitive edition that most closely resembles the originalIn 1977, American photographers Larry Sultan (19462009) and Mike Mandel (born 1950) published a book of photographs titled Evidence. The book was the culmination of a two-year search through the archives of 77 government agencies, educational institutions and corporations, including General Atomic Company, Jet Propulsion Laboratories, the San Jose Police Department and the United States Department of the Interior. The original pictures were made as objective records of activities unfamiliar to the lay public: the scenes of crimes, aeronautical engineering tests, industrial experiments and other subjects. Sifting through some two million images, Mandel and Sultan assembled a careful sequence of 59 pictures. The book was thoughtfully designed to depict the photographs in terms of their documentary origins, unaccompanied by identifying captions. Faced with a world of mysterious events and unfathomable activities, the reader is confronted with only the sequential narrative imagery of the book and thus must actively participate in creating its meaning.Following a revised edition of the book in 2003 and a 2017 reprintboth of which sold out quickly and have become highly collectibleEvidence is back in print nearly 50 years after its initial publication. This new, definitive edition features revelatory new scansmany made from the original negativeswhich greatly enhance the eerie objectivity conveyed by the books title. In many cases, the original negatives revealed that crops had been made to the image by the agencies; the complete images are restored here. The jacketless, library-style binding of the original 1977 edition is also restored, further underscoring its impersonal documentlike character and its canonical status. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
