Add to basketSoft cover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: None, As Issued. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. 37 pages. Published in 2012. Rare Barack Obama, Dawoud Bey, and Marc PoKempner collectible item. Exhibition/Auction Catalog. The first and only edition. Published in a small and limited print run as a softcover original only. There…is no ISBN. The Exhibition Catalog is now rare. Published on the occasion of the fund-raiser exhibition held at the Stephen Daiter Gallery in July, 2012. Presents "Artists For Obama: Exhibition Sale And Auction To Support The Re-Election of President Barack Obama". Fundraiser by artists for the beloved President. Thirty-six art and photographic works are shown in the catalog out of almost 100 pieces that were donated by artists, photographers, Chicago galleries, dealers, and collectors to raise funds for President Obama's re-election campaign versus Mitt Romney. All of the proceeds were given to President Obama's campaign. Aside from donating works, Stephen Daiter Gallery and other (passionate) volunteers donated their space, time, and effort so no one was paid (as the people who work for political campaigns or charitable causes/foundations are). Artists often make political statements. But with few exceptions, they seldom take an explicitly partisan stand. This was one such partisan issue that united numerous artists, whose donation of their work amounted to making a statement and taking a stand. The artists are a Who's Who of contemporary art and photography, too numerous to mention here. They include foreign artists with deep ties to America such as the late great Yasuhiro Ishimoto, among many others. Two examples: The cover shows a formal portrait of President Obama by Dawoud Bey. And there is a stunning black-and-white photograph by Marc PoKempner that deserves to be better-known: "Alley Ball, 1995", which shows a very young (and completely unknown) Obama playing basketball with a group of kids during his first campaign, as a candidate for the Illinois Legislature, more than ten years before he rose to national prominence and eventually, the Presidency. An absolute "must-have" collectible, not just memorabilia, item for Barack Obama, Dawoud Bey, and Marc PoKempner collectors. This title is now collectible. As far as we know, this is the only copy of the Exhibition/Auction available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. A rare copy thus. 36 black-and-white and color plates. Some of the greatest artists and photographers of our time. A fine copy.

Rare Marc PoKempner and Chicago-iana collectible item. A fine copy of "Film: The Illinois Film Office Location Guide". The first and only edition. Published in a one-time-only print run as a softco…ver original only. Made exclusively for Hollywood and International film producers and location scouts. None of the copies was sold to the public. There is no ISBN. The First Edition is now rare. A brilliant production by Kym Abrams Design: Oversize-volume format. Black softcovers with white title embossed on the cover, as issued. Photographs by Marc PoKempner and other contributors. Text excerpts by Nelson Algren. Printed on pristine-white, glossy stock paper in Chicago, Illinois to the highest standards. The reproduction quality is exemplary in every respect. Without DJ, as issued. Presents "Film: The Illinois Film Location Guide". Dazzling: Black-and-white and color photographs of Chicago by Marc PoKempner and other photographers. Evocative, riveting, and vibrant images of landmarks, places, and people that capture the ambience and beauty of the city and surrounding environs. Whoever came up with the idea was a genius: Instead of commissioning new, tourist-y photographs of the city to promote it to Hollywood and International film location scouts, as is the habit, the state gathered together and reproduced existing photographs (culled from Chicago galleries, various sources, and private collections), all of them taken freely and independently by Chicago-based photographers, who know the city best, and care about it the most. Seven of Marc PoKempner's iconic photographs are among 70 images that showcase Chicago, adjacent surburbs, and small towns for consideration by film producers. An absolute "must-have" title for Marc PoKempner and Chicago-iana collectors. This copy is very boldly and beautifully signed in black pen-marker on his first Contribution by Marc PoKempner. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is now collectible. As far as we know, this is the only such signed copy available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: This copy comes directly from the photographer's personal collection. A rare signed copy thus. 70 plates. Some of the most brilliant photographers of our time. A fine copy.

Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 95 pages. Published in 2000. The photographer's breakthrough debut collection. One of the finest photography books on music ever published. The first and only edition. Published in a small and limited print run as a hardcover original… only. According to the photographer himself, less than half of its full print run was completed. The First Edition is now rare. A brilliant production by Marc PoKempner and Prestel Verlag: Oversize-volume format. Ribbed hard boards with red titles embossed on spine, as issued. Photographs by Marc PoKempner. Essay by Wolfgang Schorlau. Printed on pristine-white, thick coated stock paper in Munich, Germany to the highest standards. In pictorial DJ with titles on the cover and spine, as issued. Presents Marc PoKempner's "Down At Theresa's: Chicago Blues". Evocative, riveting, and vibrant photographs that capture the people and atmosphere of Theresa's Lounge in Chicago, the world's most legendary venue for blues music. The images throb with the energy and vitality that characterized the Blues Era, when such legends as Muddy Waters, Buddy Guy, and Jimmy Rogers, among others, performed at the lounge. As Wolfgang Schorlau writes, all popular music, especially rock n' roll, originated with the blues, which has not necessarily been surpassed, at least not according to aficionados like Schorlau and Luc Sante, the brilliant American writer who has written at length on the music ("Kill All Your Darlings"). Considering the number of great photography books on American music by talents as diverse as Ed van der Elsken, William Claxton, Lee Friedlander, and Bruce Weber, among others, Marc PoKempner has pulled off a neat triumph. But it would be a pity if his book were collected only by blues, jazz, or American music aficionados. Like the work of his predecessors, the best photographs in this collection are among the very best ever taken of an authentic art form invented in America (rather than borrowed from Europe) and as such, is expressive of American roots and ideals. An absolute "must-have" title for Marc PoKempner, music, and photography book collectors. This copy is very boldly and beautifully signed and inscribed in black pen-marker on the front free endpaper by the photographer: "Here's the nitty gritty from the Windy City. Inside views of Chicago blues! Marc PoKempner". It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. There is no recipient named. This title is a contemporary photography classic. As far as we know, this is the only such signed and inscribed copy of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. It is the single most beautiful signed copy we have ever seen. Please note: This copy comes directly from the photographer's personal collection. A rare signed copy thus. 72 duotone plates. One of the most brilliant photographers of our time. A fine collectible copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER MARC POKEMPNER TITLE IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 3791323008. Signed by Author.
