1st Printing. Signed. 128 pages. Published in 2011. Retrospective collection of color photographs. One of Pieter Hugo's finest achievements. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as hardcover original only. A brilliant production by Pieter Hugo and Prestel Verlag: Oversize-volume format. Pictorial hard boards with photographic reproduction pasted on the cover, black cloth overboards, and titles on the cover and spine, as issued. Photographs by Pieter Hugo. Contributions by Federica Angelucci and Jim Puckett. Printed on pristine-white, thick coated stock paper in Munich, Germany to the highest standards. The reproduction quality is outstanding in every respect. Without DJ, as issued. Presents Pieter Hugo's "Permanent Error: Photographs". Magnificent, incredibly moving individual portraits of the terrible suffering and degradation in our Modern Age. Whom Pieter Hugo respectfully - but NOT fake "nobly" or sentimentally - photographs as humanity itself incarnate: Somehow surviving and somehow thriving amid utter desperation. "Offers unflinching yet striking portraits of humans, animals, societies, and landscapes that shock and disturb. Documents a garbage dump in Ghana that has become the repository for discarded computers from around the world. These haunting images document the true cost of a misguided policy: The shipping of millions of tons of obsolete computers to developing countries. The computers are then burned to extract valuable metals, effectively turning the site into a toxic wasteland that contaminates air, soil, and water for miles around. The story of a marginal community overwhelmed by poverty, but where human strength and resilience shine through the inhumane conditions that Pieter Hugo lays bare" (Publisher's blurb). An absolute "must-have" title for Pieter Hugo collectors. This copy is very prominently and beautifully signed and dated (in the year of publication) in black ink-pen on the title page by the photographer: "Pieter Hugo 2011". It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a great photography book. As far as we know, this is the only such signed and publication-year dated copy of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. A rare signed copy thus. 60 color plates. "Permanent Error" was selected by The New York Times as one of The Best Photography Books of our second decade. One of the most brilliant photographers of our time. A fine collectible copy. ISBN 3791345206.…
