First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. 210 pages. Published in 2012. Posthumous collection of black-and-white photographs. One of the earliest and most beautiful books on the photographic art and achievement of Vivian Maier. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions, of which there are many. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only that sold out shortly after publication. The First Edition is now rare. A brilliant production by Michael Williams: Oversize-volume format. Black cloth boards with metallic-silver titles embossed on cover and spine, as issued. Photographs by Vivian Maier. Essays by Richard Cahan and Michael Williams. Lovely Souvenir Material laid-in. Printed on pristine-white, thick coated stock paper to the highest standards. In pictorial DJ with titles on the cover and spine, as issued. Presents, in its First Edition format, "Vivian Maier: Out of The Shadows". One of the best Maier collections published thus far. Together with Saul Leiter's re-discovered work, Maier is it, the greatest photographic discovery of our time. Leiter was not unknown; he enjoyed an esoteric, cult following then broke through (towards the end of his long life) with the publication of long-overdue photography books that significantly expanded his audience and made him a mainstream superstar. Maier was completely unknown in her lifetime. "Breathtaking photographs alongside revealing Interviews with those who knew her best, this volume is the first attempt to put Vivian Maier's work in context, and create a moving portrait of her as an artist. Shortly after her death in 2009, the first group of her unseen photographs - gritty with humanity and filled with empathy and beauty - were shown. What followed was a firestorm of attention, catapulting Maier from previous obscurity to being labeled as one of the Masters of street photography. Features more than 300 duotone plates printed on 105# stock paper with flood varnish" (Publisher's blurb). Even though eight full-fledged books have already been released, there is virtually NO overlap in any of the books in terms of content, the happy outcome of her seemingly inexhaustible output. An absolute "must-have" title for Vivian Maier collectors. This title is a contemporary art photography classic. As far as we know, this is the only copy (with rare Souvenir Material) of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright, a pristine beauty. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws or are in innumerable subsequent printings. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare copy thus. 300 plates. A fine collectible copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER VIVIAN MAIER TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0978545095. no.

Presents, in its First Edition format, "Eye To Eye: Photographs by Vivian Maier". The triumphant sequel by Team Cahan and Williams. Together with Saul Leiter's re-discovered work, Maier is it, the greatest photographic discovery of our time. Leiter was not unknown; he enjoyed an esoteric, cult following then broke through (towards the end of his long life) with the publication of long-overdue photography books that significantly expanded his audience and made him a mainstream superstar. Maier was completely unknown in her lifetime. But: "Since her death in 2009, Vivian Maier has become a photographic phenomenon. Her story - thousands of photo negatives and prints found in a storage locker and sold for pennies at auction - has stirred millions around the world. Maier was a painfully private woman who now speaks powerfully through the photographs she took for herself. Offers readers a chance to follow Maier as she travels the world, with images from France, Italy, Malaysia, Yemen, and Puerto Rico. These eye-to-eye portraits are the single constant in her lifetime of photographic work" (Publisher's blurb). Even though eight full-fledged books have already been released, there is virtually NO overlap in any of the books in terms of content, the happy outcome of her seemingly inexhaustible output. An absolute "must-have" title for Vivian Maier collectors. This copy is very boldly and beautifully signed, dated (in the year of publication), and inscribed in black pen-marker on the flyleaf by the curators/editors: "To - Richard Cahan Michael Williams 2014". It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. They also drew an eye at the center of the page. The recipient, who is named, is a terrific contemporary photographer, who has requested that he not be named here. This title is a contemporary art photography classic. As far as we know, this is the only such signed, publication-year dated, and inscribed (with Eye Drawing) copy of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright, a pristine beauty. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws or are in innumerable subsequent printings. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare signed copy thus. 96 plates.
