Collects two series' of work, tete-beche format (two front covers and two text blocks, one rotated 180 degrees relative to the other): Many Wars which features American veterans draped in cloth blankets with interviews on how the wars have affected their lives; and Soldier, in which young, active duty American soldiers were photographed close up with their heads resting on tabletops. The images from the Soldier series were presented as billboards in nine American cities from 2008 through 2010. Reviewing them for The New York Times, photography critic Vince Aletti wrote: "The posture is vulnerable and startlingly intimate, as if these young men and women were facing someone in bed or on a stretcher. Opton catches soldiers both on guard and off, looking out and inward simultaneously, and we can only imagine what they're thinking, what they've done, and what they dread." Both bodies of work were selected by Martin Paar for the Brighton Photo Biennial in 2010; the book appeared on a number of "Best Photography Books of the Year" lists. Photographs and interviews by Suzanne Opton; essays by Phillip Prodger and Ann Jones. From an unnumbered edition limited to 1500 copies. 104 pages; 39 color plates; 9.75 x 12.25 inches. …

Hardcover. Condition: Very good +. First edition. SIGNED. Quarto [28.5 cm] Pictorial paper over boards, with very minor shelfwear to the boards. From the artist's website- "As an artist with a background in graphic design, Doug Keyes is hyperaware of the ways in which information and images are conveyed to the public. He is equally aware of the way knowledge stacks upon itself over time, leaving an impression or collective memory. "Using books and documents from Keyes' own collection as well as friends and relatives personal favorites; the topics cover a broad spectrum of inquiry, invention and expression. Produced with multiple exposures of all the pertinent pages of each book, Keyes' luminous color photographs reveal (or conceal) the entire contents in a single image. The result is a condensed document of the ideas contained within as well as the physical identity of the book itself.".…

Hardcover. Condition: New. Since early childhood, Seattle photographer Nealy Blau (born 1968) has wandered the halls of natural history museums, finding escape and reverie in the mysterious and sometimes eerie dioramas of constructed nature scenes. In 'Elsewhere,' Blau photographs these dioramas as though they were actual vistas, conspiring with the interactions between their three-dimensional components and the painted backdrops to compel her images to the brink of reality. 'I found that if I employed techniques that blurred the perceptions of what is real and what is not I could focus on something more abstract and essential and mysterious,' she says, in an interview with Clint Willour at the end of this volume. Photographers have explored the museum diorama before, but usually in order to trade on their kitsch appeal; Blau instead explores their enchanting melancholia, and titles each picture to indicate the location, at natural history museums in Chicago, New York, Pittsburgh, Los Angeles, Minneapolis, Philadelphia, Santa Barbara and Tacoma. Brimming with gift appeal, 'Elsewhere' was featured as one of Oprah Winfrey's favorite books in the December 2010 issue of 'O, The Oprah Magazine.'.…

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: fine. Quarto (12-1/4" x 9-3/4"). (104)pp. Color photo dust jacket with original belly band, black spine lettered in white, over blue cloth stamped in black, with the two volumes bound dos-a-dos. Illustrated with a total of 39 color plates. Signed on the half-title of "Many Wars" by Suzanne Opton. A fine, as new copy. In the two series collected in this volume, Soldier and Many Wars, photographer Suzanne Opton (born 1954) photographs a range of American soldiers close up, with their heads resting on tabletops, and American veterans draped in cloth blankets. The subjects of the Soldier series are all young, active-duty soldiers from the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, and the photographs were presented as billboards in nine American cities from 2008 through 2010. Reviewing them for The New York Times, photography critic Vince Aletti wrote: "The posture is vulnerable and startlingly intimate, as if these young men and women were facing someone in bed or on a stretcher . Opton catches soldiers both on guard and off, looking out and inward simultaneously, and we can only imagine what they're thinking, what they've done, and what they dread." The project received extensive press coverage and even sparked a heated debate about America's image of the military. The Many Wars series presents portraits of veterans from American wars over the past 70 years. Through interviews by the photographer, we learn how the wars have affected their lives. Both bodies of work were selected by Martin Paar for the Brighton Photo Biennial in 2010. (OCLC).…
