Items related to I'm a Real Photographer: Photographs by Keith Arnatt
This book tells the story of Arnattās journey in photography, in 19 series of photographs. Each series features prosaic subject matter ā his dogs, the local rubbish tip, everyday objects photographed in his studio, notes that his wife Jo left for him ā exploring the conventions of the medium with a distinct edge and humor. Seen together, for the first time, the threads and themes of Arnattās work connect to make a coherent statement about the act of photography and its relationship to the history of art. Arnattās story and work prove surprising, provocative, profound and ā ultimately ā moving. Born in Oxford in 1930 and now retired, Keith Arnattās life as an artist falls into two distinct parts. In the late 1960s his iconoclastic and witty performances, sculptures and texts, challenging the tenets of āartā, established him as one of the most influential Conceptual artists of his generation. His work was seen at the Hayward and Tate galleries in London and the Museum of Modern Art in New York. But then in the mid 1970s, in an act that defied the prevailing values of the art world (and led to his isolation), Arnatt chose to become a photographer instead. Over the following 28 years he immersed himself in the history of photography, making a sequence of photo series in the immediate vicinity of his home in South Wales.

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: As new. Text in English. 151 pp. Wrapped in plastic film. Born in Oxford in 1930 and now retired, Keith Arnatt' s life as an artist falls into two distinct parts. In the late 1960s his iconoclastic and witty performances, sculptures and texts, challenging the tenets of art", established him as an influential Conceptual artist. His work was seen at the Hayward and Tate galleries in London and the Museum of Modern Art in New York But then in the mid 1970s, in an act defying the prevailing values of the art world, Arnatt chose to become a photographer instead. Over the following 28 years he immersed himself in the history of photography, making progressive photo series in the immediate vicinity of his home in South Wales. Nineteen series of photographs are featured here - and in The Photographers' Gallery exhibition - in the first comprehensive account of Arnatt's photography. Each series explores the conventions of the medium with a distinct edge and humour; seen together, the threads and themes of Arnatt's work connect to make a coherent statement about the act of photography and its relationship to the history of art. The narrative of Arnatt's unique journey in photography proves surprising, provocative and, ultimately, moving. Accompanying 160 of Arnatt's photographs reproduced here is a personal account of Arnatt's journey by David Hurn - Magnum photographer, author and Arnatt's close friend and colleague. With a foreword by Brett Rogers- Director of The Photographers' Gallery, and an illustrated contextual essay exploring the links between his Conceptual art and his photography by Clare Grafik - curator of The Photographers' Gallery.
