Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Elisabeth Tonnards In This Dark Wood is a study of urban alienation in America. In a haunting, modern-gothic style, it pairs images of people walking alone in nighttime city streets with 90 different English translations, collected by Tonnard, of the famous first lines of Dantes Inferno: Nel mezzo del cammin di nostra vita / mi ritrovai per una selva oscura / che la diritta via era smarrita. (In the middle of the journey of our life / I found myself in a dark wood / for the straight way was lost). The images were selected from the Joseph Selle collection at the Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester, New York, which contains over a million negatives from a company of street photographers who worked in San Francisco from the 1940s to the 70s. This edition is a reprint of a work originally self-published in 2008. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. Elisabeth Tonnard (illustrator). Originally published in 2013, this is a second printing from March 2014. A collection of 'historic' photographs reproduced here in color that have been held by the Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester, New York together with an essay by the award winning artist, Elisabeth Tonnard. Developed by this Dutch artist and poet who creates artists' books, photography and literature. Here is an explanation of this "Gospel" from a 2016 catalog of Elisabeth Tonnard's works titled: "Books and editions": "What would it be like if Jesus had been a photographer? What would he have done differently and which images would he have snapped? The Gospel of the Photographer imagines this world through a rewriting of the gospel of Mark. Words from the gospel were replaced by words connected to photography, resulting in a booby trapped text in which photography appears as an agent of miracles and healing-and announces itself ultimately as the new religion. The book includes twenty-five newly discovered photographs." All photographs in color simulating autochromes. Horizontal format, measuring 8.25" x 5.75" with 60 + pages. In excellent condition.

Paperback. Condition: Good. Signed by Elisabeth Tonnard on title page. Pages unmarked, moderate wear. "Autographed copy" sticker on front cover. This book, designed and printed like a novel, reconstructs a pattern found in the immense archive of a street photographer working in San Francisco from the 40żs to the 70żs (the Joseph Selle collection at the Visual Studies Workshop). It shows countless doubles, walking the city streets. The images are combined with a poem by Baudelaire, which is broken apart into separate words, set, and rotated progressively at an angle below each photograph. Flipping the pages causes the words to pirouette as the poem reads sequentially from front-to-back on the recto and, on the verso, from back-to-front. Signed by Author.

No Binding. Condition: As New. Grey clam-shell box containing 128 single-sided sheets. Archival inkjet prints. 5 x 7 inches each. - First edition. One of numbered 20 numbered and signed copies. "Interior Monologue pairs images of Parisian apartment interiors from a real-estate catalogue with texts found in the "literary phrases" section of Grenville Kleiser's Fifteen Thousand Useful Phrases. The project presents abandoned remnants of speech, paired to images that are likewise abandoned: orphaned photos from a real-estate catalogue, snapped by ever so many unidentified photographers. Texts and imag es look as though they are quite established on their pages, and in a healthy relationship towards each other. This soon proves false. Each element seems to be speaking for itself. The scripts do not function as descrip tions; and no knowledge is gained from the information gathered. The development of a narrative is cut short on each page. Meanwhile the reader cannot avoid relating images and texts, and interpreting the images by means of the texts. Even if the combinations of texts and images are determined by chance: the phrases are in alphabetical order and the images are in the order that the magazine they come from presented them in.".
