2002 Holiday Catalogue
Volume 24, Number 4, November 2002
“And thou, returning to thine hearth and home, Art as a genial warmth in winter hours, Or as a coolness, when the lord of
heaven, Mellows the juice within the bitter grape.” Snow now blankets the Sangre de Cristo Mountains north of Santa Fe,
while the sun yet shines on the town and Agamemnon’s words, as writ by Aeschylus millennia ago, remind us that the joys
of winter are near. We truly hope this Holiday season is kind and safe for all. Photography book publishers, reaping the fruits
of Summer activity, are offering a plenitude of fine titles, many of which should not be passed up. As always, the cream-ofthe-crop are illustrated and reviewed on these pages, for your perusal. If you want more information about a particular title,
visiting our website, photoeye.com, will often yield publisher’s descriptions and color page-spreads. The cover image is

Debbie Fleming Caffery: The Shadows
In 1990, the Smithsonian published a softbound monograph on a photographer born and
raised in Louisiana by the name of Debbie Fleming Caffery. Her dark, haunting images of
sugar cane workers nearly overpowered the book, creating a yearning by all who purchased it to see more. But no publications were forthcoming, and the book, Carry Me
Home, became one of the most sought after out-of-print books on the market. More than
ten years later, a gorgeous new volume finally arrives, equal to the task of providing a
suitable space for Caffery’s forceful imagery which vacillates between renderings of the
ethereal and rumblings of the underworld. Light is the instrument; indelible portraits of
shadows the result. A true masterpiece. The limited edition is signed, numbered and slipcased. The deluxe edition is signed/numbered and comes in a clamshell box with an original gelatin silver print. See
the print and an interview with Caffery on p. 19. Twin Palms, Santa Fe, 2002. 96 pp., 45 tritones 11×11″.

Stephen Shore: Uncommon Places
50 Unpublished Photographs 1973–1978
Text by Gerry Badger.
A recent (June 2002) Art in America interview with the great German photographers Bernd and Hilla Becher yielded this gem. “It was obvious that color had
to come. We had acquired a small series in color by Stephen Shore—bought
or exchanged—and the photographs hung there [in the Düsseldorf
Academy of Art], for all our visitors to see. That had a certain influence.”
Regardless of whether or not there is a causal relationship between Shore’s
“small series in color” and the work of the Düsseldorf Academy students, the fact is these images are imbued with a
“heroic articulation of the real.” This superb new monograph contains unpublished work from Shore’s original
ground-breaking body of work, Uncommon Places. Shore is one of photography’s greatest thinkers to boot and 50
Unpublished Photographs is sprinkled with passages from his The Nature of Photographs, a seminal text which illuminates the relationships between the photograph as an object, its content, its purely visual qualities, and the experience of viewing it. This refreshing combination of images and words makes 50 Unpublished Photographs one of the
most important books of the year. Paris, 2002. 134 pp., 50 color illustrations, 12×8½″.

Mark Klett: Ideas about Time & The Third View Project
The Arizona State University Art Museum has published a catalogue to a major
travelling exhibition on the photography of Mark Klett. Museum Director Marilyn
Zeitlin states in her essay, “it is clear that nearly all of the work reflects a concern
with time. The work is both analysis and meditation, and his reflections on time
are no exception to this dual attitude that brings together
a subtle poetry with a scientific exactitude.” Having prepared for and pursued early on a career in the U.S.
Geological Society, Klett brings to his art not only an
understanding of time on a vast scale but also a deep concern with man’s effects on the
environment. He is well-known for his influential work Second View: The Rephotographic
Survey Project which exactingly reproduced views of sites in the American West made historic in 19th-century survey photographs. Third View presents a continuation of that team effort, led by Project
Director Klett. The participants explain: “The project made more than 110 rephotographs from the same vantage
points as the originals while also attempting to duplicate the original photographs' lighting conditions, both in
time of day and year. This disk samples seven sites along with a portion of the collateral materials collected, including interviews and other sound files and site-related imagery such as Virtual Reality panoramas.” Both Mac and PC
compatible. Arizona State University, Tempe, 2002. Unpaged, 52 color and black-and-white illustrations, 9×11″.

Two books by Daido Moriyama:
Shinjuku & Passage
In our Fall catalogue, we reviewed 1971/NY (Cat# PK666), a book of unpublished work that
Moriyama made on his first trip to America in 1971. That volume
sits at one end of the spectrum of his photographic life. Shinjuku,
an equally exquisite volume limited to just 500 signed and slipcased copies, sits at the opposite end. Moriyama’s signature style
of raw, gritty, black-and-white street photography is perfectly suited to the hard-core urbanity of this teeming borough of Tokyo.
Printed full bleed with absolutely no text apart from a loose foldout introduction by Moriyama himself, Shinjuku is a powerful presentation and another must
for the serious collector. Also available is a small volume of his SX-70 Polaroids, presented
quietly, one to a page. Nazraeli Press, Tucson, 2002. Unpaged, 300+ duotone illustrations, 7¼×10″.

Simen Johan: Room to Play
Text by Lyle Rexer.
From a technical point of view, anyone working in a digital darkroom should purchase this volume simply to study the seamless color composites that Johan has
produced. Artistically, he has striven to unsettle the viewer, creating “surreal and
narrative tableaux of corrupted youth.” “My photographs are composites of multiple-image fragments that I digitally manipulate and combine, including both images
that I have photographed myself and found images. By combining different
elements, my objective is to create artificial scenarios that appear vaguely familiar
and produce numerous associations.”—Johan. Look for the image at right on a
recent cover of Art & Auction. The limited edition of 50 copies comes with an original color print in a clamshell box.

Michael Kenna: Twenty Year Retrospective, Second Edition
Kenna’s work has successfully explored the realm of twilight in a way that no other photographer has. His images—filled with deep shadows and graphic forms—evoke mystery and realms just beyond perception. His subject matter ranges from gardens and
forests to industrial sites and statues, often photographed at night. The first edition of
Kenna’s classic Twenty Year Retrospective was published in 1994 and subsequently
underwent three separate printings before going out-of-print. This new edition is
slightly larger in format and now has 1:1 reproductions. Nazraeli Press, Tucson, 2002. 172

Jungjin Lee: Desert
Preface by Robert Frank.
Arguably one of Korea’s most important photographers—an appellation that is
well-deserved—Jungjin Lee has consistently produced work that is intelligent,
thoroughly modern, and steeped in an approach to image-making that one
rarely stumbles upon, akin to a rare treasure. Made between 1990–95, the Desert
series was not printed until this past year, when Lee revisited her negatives and
saw something she had not seen before. Devoid of any evidence of man, the
images concentrate on monumental shapes, overpowering shadow-forms, and texture—recurring themes in her
work. Her previous two monographs also contain exquisite imagery (On Road, Ocean Cat#ZB929S and Beyond
Photography Cat# ZB981S). Seoul, 2002. Unpaged, 58 duotone illustrations, 8½×6 ″.

John Gossage: The Romance Industry
It started with a letter sent on the 26th of May 1998 by Dr. Sandro
Mescola. In the letter, Gossage was invited to work on a project to
document “the city of Venice’s industrial transformation.” No gondolas and peppermint sticks rising out of the water here. The ports of
Marghera provided endless material for an artist who is brilliant at
mustering together ‘evidence’, like a detective. The ‘case’ for which he
photographs is irrelevant; one can so easily become absorbed in the
unfolding story the images present that concerns about grandiose theories fall to the wayside. Pay special attention to the chapter entitled, “The Contents of a Laboratory.” The photographs in that chapter pleasantly conjure up Calder and Diebenkorn in an effortless, unintentional manner.

Graciela Iturbide: Pajaros
Birds have long been used as a metaphor for messengers of the
spirit, an association that comes naturally for a creature that
exists so comfortably between earth and the heavens above.
Under the gaze of one of Mexico’s greatest photographers,
they take on an added mystery that is enhanced by constant
reminders of their frailty. Iturbide’s magnificent work is solidly
rooted in the world which surrounds us, yet is tinged by the
fantastical spirituality of a Latin American vision. Twin Palms Publishers, Santa Fe,

Shinichiro Kobayashi: Ruins
The most intriguing thing about Kobayashi’s photographs of
abandoned buildings and industrial sites are what people chose
to leave behind—a comfortable office chair, a child’s tricycle,
and other still-usable items. What is also clearly evident in his
work is the evolution of decay; the natural world invariably
reclaims its lost ground, no matter the scope of industry which
once stood so immovably. Vines, saplings, and bushes find their
way deep inside the ruins he visits. Kobayashi travelled throughout Japan to produce these rich color images which have been reproduced on lush satin paper. Tokyo, 2002. 194

Lauren Greenfield: Girl Culture
“Revealing, insightful, and sometimes disturbing, Lauren Greenfield’s award-winning photographs capture the essence of contemporary youth culture. In Girl
Culture, she turns her lens on American girls. The resulting photographs provide a
window into the secret worlds of girls’ social lives and private rituals, the dressing
room and locker room, as well as the iconic subcultures of the popular clique,
cheerleaders, athletes, strippers, debutantes, actresses, and models. With an eye
for both the common and the eccentric, Greenfield recounts the ways in which
girls are affected and influenced by American popular culture.”—the publisher.

Berenice Abbott / Eugene Atget
Text by Clark Worswick and Berenice Abbott.
With numerous previously unpublished images, and a superb essay
by historian Clark Worswick, this truly outstanding volume adds significantly to studies on the relationship between Berenice Abbott
and Eugene Atget. What is universally known is that Abbott purchased Atget’s estate in 1927 and spent 40 years popularizing
Atget’s vision of Paris. What is far less known however are the photographs she herself printed from Atget’s original negatives—extremely vibrant photographs that form the core of this book. The essay by Abbott reproduced in the back
originally appeared in1964 in The World of Atget, published by Horizon Press. Arena

Lee Friedlander: Staglieno
Text by Peter Galassi.
“Photography likes sculpture. It likes to see how things look from different
angles, especially things that don’t move...And sculpture likes photography. It
likes to show off its many faces, its volumes, patinas, and textures. Above all, it
likes the way photography, which makes living figures still, awakens figures
frozen in stone.”—from the text by Peter Galassi. The Staglieno cemetery sits on
the edge of Genoa, and was created during the late nineteenth century.
Friedlander again hits his stride with these remarkable images of the memorials
created for the good citizens of this Italian town. The book is bound in a gorgeous dark purple velvet with a large image tipped on to the cover. Nazraeli

Rolfe Horn: 28 Photographs
Text by Dennis High.
Horn is a young photographer, in his early 30s, who is
presently enjoying a growing national reputation. The
image at left was recently featured on the cover of B&W
Magazine and is found in this handsome new monograph of
his best work to date. Horn’s photography explores the
landscape in intimate views, often at night or twilight. His
first monograph, a limited edition collection of original prints of Angkor Wat, was
published 2 years ago, (Cat# TR080L, $1000); several images from that body of work are
included in 28 Photographs. The book is limited to 500 copies, with an original silver

Wright Morris: Distinctly American
Text by Alan Trachtenberg.
Born in Central City, Nebraska in 1910, Wright Morris never strayed far, in spirit,
from the Midwest, though early in life he travelled to both coasts. His main vocation revolved around his literary pursuits, for which he was often honored, receiving the prestigious National Book Award in 1957 and the American Book Award in
1981. From the beginning of his career, however, he consciously strove to marry
text and images. His writing is characterized by active seeing amidst daily routine;
photography for Morris involved essentially the same faculties. His careful blackand-white studies of the items of an ordinary (yet ever-rich) life continue to
breathe and resonate today. Merrell, London, 2002. 144 pp., 120 duotones, 11×11 ″.

Lime Works, Second Edition
The images in this book are of limestone

some thirty locations scattered around Japan,
ranging from Haikkido to Okinawa. The photographs of factories—sweeping panoramas
often made at twilight or dawn—reveal an
otherworldly mini-cityscape of oversized tubes and tunnels, all coated with a fine layer of white dust. This work was
made between the years 1986 and 1994 and the first edition, published by Synergy of Tokyo in 1996, quickly went
out-of-print. Amus Arts of Osaka has now reissued this Hatakeyama classic, complete with a new afterword by the

Tom Paiva: Industrial Night
Made at a variety of industrial and shipping sites in the Los

economic activity, the ultimate cause for the structures
that are his subject matter. Huge twisting pipes and cavernous buildings, all bathed in artificial light, loom in front
of the viewer, initiating one into a realm that is not open
to many. These are careful studies and serve not as condemnations of global trade but rather use the mere presence of industry as a chance to explore massive shapes
and forms. For a view of the interior of this book, visit photoeye.com/tompaiva. Los Angeles, 2002. 58 pp., 48 color illustrations, 11¼×11¼″.

William Wylie: Stillwater
Text by Merrill Gilfillan and Wendell Berry.
Made along the banks of the Cache la Poudre River near Fort Collins, Colorado,
Wylie’s photographs are permeated with quiet, attentive gazing. Nothing more. He
has distilled the river to a mosaic of reflections by removing the superfluous. The
implied murmurings of those riparian surroundings quietly fill the mind, filtering
out unwanted background noise and leaving, instead, a serenity that is disturbed
only by the fascinating ripples on the page. This book has virtually no text, aside
from an inspiring and cryptic text by Gilfillan, which adds a certain mystery to the
overall presentation. Nazraeli Press, Tucson, 2002. Unpaged, 25 duotones, 12×12″.

Anthony Hernandez: Waiting for Los Angeles
Anthony Hernandez is a photographer for whom waiting has long been a theme,
with his bus stop pictures in the late 1970s, and his fishing shots in the 1980s.
Hernandez’s vision is both abstract and documentary, and there is a pattern to his
work in every sense of that word—whether he is focusing on an empty waiting
room, a phone hanging in a booth, or random scribbles etched on a sheet of glass.
Hernandez skillfully draws attention to the simple geometric beauty that can be
found in even the most utilitarian fence, wall, or window. There is not a soul in sight,
but there is a strong sense that someone has been here, and there is enough to grip
the attention until they, perhaps, return. With an informed and descriptive essay by
photographer, writer and critic Allan Sekula. Nazraeli Press, Tucson, 2002. 92 pp.,

“I will never admit the decay of the flesh.” Yukio Mishima wrote these words in the weeks
before his death by seppuku—ritual suicide—in November of 1970. This act, news of which

edition of Ba Ra Kei, Hosoe’s masterpiece of surreal photography which uses Mishima as
model and subject matter. The preface by Mishima, Japan’s greatest post-war literary
figure, is reason enough to purchase this book, for the clarity of his writing on the nature of
photography. “It seems to me that before the photograph can exist as art it must, by its
very nature, choose whether it is to be a record or a testimony.” This new edition contains

Bill Burke: Fire + Iron
Poems by Sue Wrbican.
A self-described gear-head, in whom “the metal disease has grown...over the years,”
Burke’s first photographs were of cars, and it was a fellow Aries that described how “fire
and iron are essential elements” in their shared astrology, hence the fascination with
motors and cars. Bill Burke is one of those figures in the photography community about
whom one rarely hears, but when you do, you pay attention. He avoided the Vietnam
War by failing the physical exam, but after seeing the film The Deer Hunter—a Vietnam
War film—decided to photograph those places where it was made: Mingo Junction,
Ohio, and Weirton, West Virginia, towns intimately connected to the steel mills. He eventually made his way to southeast Asia, and again found himself among metal-workers
and machinists. This catalogue, which contains raw and powerful poems by Sue Wrbican, accompanies a show
organized by Pittsburgh Filmmakers. New York City, 2002. 24 pp., 24 color and black-and-white illustrations, 8½×11″.

landscapes at dusk, of the industrial no-man’s land that lies on the outskirts of our cities, and of androgynous girls and boys adrift in the nocturnal turmoil of adolescence are painterly tableaux that continue the
tradition of romantic literature and painting in our post-industrial age.
The rich chiaroscuro, the oscillating light, and the masterful composition of his photographs map enigmatic states that escape rationalism’s
iron grip, providing a much-needed antidote to a culture that increasingly looses itself in a numbing vortex of
blinking screens and glittering surfaces.”—the publisher. Scalo, Zurich, 2002. 192 pp., 125 color illus., 16½×12″.

Jackie Nickerson: Farm
Text by Mark Holborn.
Nickerson’s work is refreshing and substantial for a variety of reasons. For one, her color prints vacillate between rich hues and a
bleached tonality. All of the work is printed in color but some
images have been printed almost monochromatically, allowing
this or that single muted color to barely present itself. The intentional austere effect is akin to the washed-out appearance things
acquire under the burning midday sun of the African farmlands
where she photographs. Machinery is virtually non-existent in
these agricultural communities and Nickerson’s work focuses on the people, clothing and inventiveness that is cultivated through poverty. Her work gracefully straddles the line between document and testament—think sharecroppers by Walker Evans—and for that reason alone her work is worthy of attention. Trafalgar Square, North

Abelardo Morell: A Book of Books
This is a true book-lover’s book, albeit a book of unusual books. There are stacks of
books and single books, 19th century books for the blind, oversize astronomy
books, a table-sized Audubon book and an impossibly massive dictionary. There are
water-damaged books and books that have been buried in dirt. But some of the
most interesting books are those in which the author has created a fantasy world,
(eg. Alice in Wonderland) and Morell plays on this tendency and strength of literature
to invent alter realities. Morrell’s photographic style is to use raking light to accentuate the subtle differences in tonality and surface, creating a rich sense of texture and
tension. Bulfinch, Boston, 2002. 108 pp., numerous duotone illustrations, 10×10″.

The faux-leather cover and binding calls to mind a personal diary, which is precisely what this intriguing book

Gallo has assembled photographs of his ‘life and times’

MONOGRAPHS
Quizzical Eye: The Photography of Rondal Partridge
Text by Elizabeth Partridge and Sally Stein.
Rondal Partridge was born in 1917 to California etcher Roi Partridge and the celebrated
photographer Imogen Cunningham. By his twentieth year, he had apprenticed to both
Dorothea Lange and Ansel Adams, who, along with Edward Weston, were close friends
of the family. This intimate association with certain prominent figures in the photography community fueled his image-making activities but did not cloud his mind with aspirations of celebrity. In fact, his aversion to the spotlight is a central feature of this monograph/biography, which also presents his eclectic, but ever-fascinating, 60+ years of
photographic activity. Rondal Partridge is represented by photo-eye Gallery. California
Historical Society Press, San Francisco, 2002. 144 pp., numerous duotones, 10×11″.

Alexey Titarenko: City of Shadows
Text by Irina Tchmyreva.
Born to parents of the Soviet academic intelligentsia,
which implies relative prosperity during the years of
the Cold War, Titarenko began exhibiting photographs as a member of the Leningrad Zerkalo Club
at the young age of sixteen. His attention to form
shines through in these atmospheric photographs
where bundled crowds, hustling here and there, are
reduced to massive, stunning blurs. In her thoughtful
essay, Irina Tchmyreva writes, “St. Petersburg demands to be loved with the compassion of Dostoyevsky’s ‘little
people,’ for whom feeling is both a form of cleansing and a way of penetrating the mystery and spirit of this city
composed of evaporations from the river’s bog-lands.” Alexey Titarenko’s work is available through photo-eye Gallery.

Elliott Erwitt’s Handbook
“What is it about hands? We think we communicate with words, but has anyone ever told
that to an Italian? Where did the expression "tongue-tied" come from? No one ever tied a
tongue. But tie their hands and about half the world's communicators would be silenced. The
human (and sometimes non-human) hands are, with the possible exception of the eyes, the
most expressive parts of the body, asking for more or less, telling us to come or to go, asking
questions and answering them, scolding, rewarding, searching and finding. They intimidate,
bless, encourage, and stop us. We may take hands for granted. But Elliott Erwitt does not.
Here is Erwitt at his most serious-and-yet-whimsical best, giving us the moments which, without hands, would not exist.”—the publisher. New York, 2002. 128 pp., 100 duotones, 6×8½ ″.

Chuck Close: Daguerreotypes
Text by Philip Glass and Timothy Greenfield-Sanders.
This monograph explores the daguerreotypes of Chuck Close, one
of America’s most renowned artists and a leading figure on the art
scene of the post-war era. The resulting volume permits a comprehensive study of the artist’s entire oeuvre from the very outset of
his career to the present day. A figurative painter and photographer, Close work has always occupied the territory where realism,
abstraction, and minimalism overlap; his art’s founding principle
lies chiefly in an analysis of the working process, whether of painting or of photography. Fotofolio, New York, 2002. 224 pp., numerous color illustrations, 9½×12¾″.

David Armstrong: All Day Every Day
“Beauty was never a dirty word for David Armstrong. Untroubled by others’ puritan fears
of sensuality or by the follies of this or that zeitgeist, Armstrong has long pursued his
twin vision of urban romance and bucolic serenity. All Day Every Day presents the artist’s
landscapes, interiors, and cityscapes, wistful and evocative images that discreetly
suggest stories of love and loss, that bespeak the solitary pleasures of a flaneur adrift on
urban streets and rural roads. A street corner, the facade of a skyscraper, blossoming
trees, a chair in a room on a late afternoon: these are the elusive quotidian promises of
happiness that Armstrong so elegantly captures, generously inviting viewers to
interweave their own desires and reveries with his intricately languid images.”—the
publisher. Scalo Publishers, Zurich, 2002. 144 pp., 85 color illustrations, 12×16½″.

A most rare and unbelievable treasure.
After sitting in storage since his death in 1985, André de Dienes's complete
Marilyn archives have finally been gathered together.
Photographer André de Dienes's life was changed forever one day in 1945
when he met an aspiring young model named Norma Jeane Baker. They
immediately took off on the road together so that André could photograph
her in natural settings across the West; during their travels, they fell in love
and were briefly engaged. After their romance ended, they remained friends
and de Dienes continued to photograph her. His unique, loving photographs
of Norma Jeane helped to launch her model career and, a few years later,
the film career that was to make her a legend.

An interview with
Debbie Fleming Caffery
OUT OF DARKNESS
"The true artist must always mix the inner substance of the soul with the essence of the subject to
derive droplets of imagery from the resultant alchemy. This magical process requires total involvement of the heart. Debbie Fleming Caffery's work
radiates this fusion of her personal passion with
the emotional energy of her subjects. From this
fundamental union comes the depth and power of
her images."—Francis Ford Coppola, 2002
Emotional and mythic vision pervade Debbie
Fleming Caffery’s evocative images of life in
Louisiana, Portugal, and Mexico. Her photographs are not objective documents, but poetic stories that capture the mystery and spirit of
the people and places she encounters. She has
received numerous awards, including the
Governor of Louisiana’s award for excellence in
the arts and the prestigious Lou Stoumen
Award from the Museum of Photographic Arts,
San Diego. Her work is in the permanent collections of The Museum of Modern Art, New
York, the Whitney Museum of American Art,
The Metropolitan Museum, New York, and
the Bibliothèque Nationale in Paris. The
Shadows is her first major monograph in 12
years. Wendy Lewis, Director of photo-eye
Gallery, recently interviewed Caffery.

to as ‘falling in love’ with
your subjects?
DFC: The attraction I feel to a subject whether
it be person, animal, situation or place, develops into a relationship that feels like being in
love. I have had a love affair with sugar cane
harvesting in Louisiana since l973. I photograph the harvest every season just like the
farmer harvests the cane. My work is a visual
articulation of an emotional and sensual
response to my subjects—to stories heard and
the smells and sounds in the environment. I
spend years on most of my projects; without
the major ingredient of time, these intense relationships would be nonexistent. Each project
flows into the other, as can be seen in my new
book, The Shadows.
WL: Your work holds a continuum of shadow,
darkness and life. What draws you to the darker
realms? Can you elaborate on the balance you
maintain between darkness and the spark of life
within your imagery?
DFC: I grew up in
Louisiana in the
heart of two distinct, strong cultures known for
their great story
telling, music and
food: Cajun and
African-American. I
absorbed these cultures into my imagination and am
attracted to cultures
that are organic and
emotional, where I can feel and somehow share
the rhythm and beat of the people, where the
past is on the shoulders of the community. I am
extremely attracted to shades of mystery and
shadow. I wait, observe, and listen long enough
so that a combination of my emotions and
those of my subjects and their environment
occur. This lets a brightness come through in
my photographs, just as the light and sparks of
life are heard in the lullabies I grew up with—
old Gospel spirituals and Cajun ballads. My
challenge is always to balance the emotions of
struggle, tenderness and hope so that it shines
through in a body of work.
WL: You have recently moved to Sante Fe;
what drew you here and how has the move
affected your photography?
DFC: I was invited here as an artist in residence
at the Marion Center at the College of Santa
Fe, to teach a class in documentary photography. I devoted five
months to teaching
and printing a new
portfolio of my work
on "Women of the
Night." Being in
Santa Fe was so nourishing to my life as an
artist that after the

Louisiana. Although
the people and environment of Louisiana had
birthed the creativity in my work, I no long felt
nourished there as an artist. I have not photographed here much, but the experience of living here has enriched my heart and soul. Being
in a community that cherishes and celebrates
the creative spirit is the greatest gift of living
here. Working with photo-eye and Jack Woody at
Twin Palms Publishers has been extraordinary.
While living here I have found the time and the
support to edit years of work, which has led me
to a better understanding of my photographs.
Santa Fe—this vast, dry landscape—is such a
contrast to the humid South in which I grew
up, it inspires me to explore the shadows of my
new home.

The enlarger comes

Stephen Shore: Essex County
Made 20 years after Uncommon Places, Shore’s newest imagery, upon first reading,
seems to have done an about-face from the course set two decades ago. For one
thing, they’re black-and-white. For another, these are close-ups of tree trunks, mosscovered rocks, and subtle, almost quaint photographs of leaves dusting the forest
floor. But in a recent phone conversation—Shore was driving to Parent’s Day at his
son’s Connecticut college—he convincingly elaborated the vital relationship between
these two disparate bodies of work, cemented not by the fact of the 8x10 view camera that has remained his companion, but rather by ideas. The view camera monumentalizes things by close observation, by saturation of detail. Shore stated that this
fact so often stymies students who search for a subject worthy of such attention. But
one doesn’t have to find something monumental to photograph. Though it’s true
that, for Shore, the 8x10 equates with a heightened sense of awareness in the world, that awareness can be
applied to the everyday. This is the essential link between the earlier color work (see p. 3) and this rich new body of
images. The limited edition of 50 has an original gelatin silver print tipped on to the cover and is signed and numbered by the artist. Nazraeli Press, Tucson, 2002. Unpaged, 18 duotone illustrations, 14×17″.

Richard Misrach: Pictures of Paintings
Text by Weston Naef and Navjotika Kumar.
“Oblique. Subtle. They are beautiful, but the undercurrent is political,
though not overtly so. It’s about the way art is used to implant itself on
another culture.”—from a conversation with Misrach. The pictures of
paintings published here comprise one of Misrach’s famous Cantos, but
they have never been reproduced in their entirety until now. Made in
various museums in the American West, they are concerned with the
manner in which European art—particularly the landscape painting—
made its way, metaphorically and literally, to this region of the US. The
details of these paintings have obviously been co-opted, but the resulting meanings are implied and indirect. The two essays by Naef and
Kumar bring to the table much needed historical and intellectual analysis. The limited edition comes with a triptych of C-prints, signed and numbered by the artist; visit photoeye.com/picturesofpaintings to see the images in

Americans in Kodachrome: 1945–1965
Edited by Guy Stricherz.
“Introduced in 1935 as the first modern color film, Kodachrome was used
extensively after World War II by amateur photographers equipped with the
new high-quality and low cost 35mm cameras. Americans in Kodachrome
1945–1965 is an unprecedented portrayal of the daily life of the people during these formative years of modern American culture. It is comprised of
ninety-five exceptional color photographs made by over ninety unknown
American photographers. These photographs were chosen from many thousands of slides in hundreds of collections. Like folk art in other mediums, this
work is characterized by its frankness, honesty, and vigor. Made as memoirs
of family and friends, the photographs reveal a free-spirited, intuitive approach, and possess a clarity and unpretentiousness characteristic of this unheralded photographic folk art. Conceived as a book and nation-wide exhibition, Americans in Kodachrome: 1945–1965 is an evocative and haunting portrait of an historic generation of
Americans.”—Guy Stricherz. The Deluxe Edition comes with 3 color dye transfer prints; visit photoeye.com/americansinkodachrome to see the images in color. Twin Palms, Santa Fe, 2002. 120 pp., 95 color illustrations, 10×12″.

Print the Legend:
Photography and
the American West
Text by Martha A. Sandweiss.
Martha Sandweiss is a professor of American
studies and history at Amherst College and is
well known to the photography community for
her monumental study of Laura Gilpin, entitled
Enduring Grace (Cat# TX009H $95). This new volume tells the intertwined tales of photography
and the American West, beginning with the
daguerreotypists who accompanied troops to the scenes of the MexicanAmerican War, and continuing through to the ever-growing awe conveyed
by pioneering Western photographers. Sandweiss is particularly keen on
the development and use of photography to create myth as well as examining the varied intents that photographers brought to their craft. The chapter on photography and book-making, from whence the title of the book is
derived, is fodder for all involved in the book market, reader, photographer
and publisher alike. Yale University Press, New Haven, 2002. 416 pp., 138

Josephine Sacabo has distilled the elusive world of
Mexican novelist Juan Rulfo into a series of images
that explore the physical and emotional landscape
of his classic tale of love and death. Rulfo has been
hailed as an important precursor to the literary
style of “magical-realism” and Sacabo uses his
semi-fantastical story as the starting point for her
own imagery. This new translation is the fifth volume in the outstanding Witliff Gallery series on Southwestern and Mexican
photographers, bringing together Rulfo’s words and Sacabo’s photographs
in a perfect marriage. Other titles in the series include Small Deaths, by Kate

For the past three decades, David Travis, Curator of
Photography at the Art Institute of Chicago, has
brought to the field of photography criticism a classical
liberal arts mindset. His knowledge of the history, art
and techniques of photography is unsurpassed, and his
deeply-held interest in such fields as mathematics, linguistics, and philosophy brings a much needed breadth
of discourse to a narrowly conceived field that can, at
times, abound with mere blandishments. The book is quite discursive, comprised of seven essays originally offered as lectures. An important volume.

As Leni Riefenstahl turns 100, TASCHEN
celebrates with a tribute to her remarkable
Africa oeuvre. When she was in her early
sixties, Riefenstahl began voyaging frequently
to the African continent, where she has worked
on various film and photography projects over
the last half century. Her favorite destination
was in Sudan, where she lived with and
photographed the Nuba tribes people, learning
their language and becoming their friend.

David Plowden
Bridges
The Spans of North America,
Revised Edition
Cat# NT131H $75 Hardcover / 12" x 10" / 328 pages
Whether built of stone, brick, wood, iron, steel, or concrete, bridges have captivated
our imaginations more than any other man-made structures. In David Plowden's
words, "there is no more overt, powerful, or rational expression of accomplishment—
of man's ability to build." And Americans, in particular, have excelled in this
structural art.
Bridges explores in depth how, when, where, and by whom the most important
North American bridges were built, and, with Plowden's superb photographs, we can
dwell on their most important engineering and aesthetic qualities. In his extensive
text, Plowden vividly records the discoveries, misconceptions, struggles, failures,
and triumphs of the men who dedicated their energies to bridge design and construction. Plans of many of the bridges are included to illuminate less obvious aspects of
these engineering marvels. Although a number of the bridges herein have been lost
and others have been built, this volume stands as a stunning and powerful argument
for our continued reverence for these wonderful structures.

Stieglitz and the Photo-Secession, 1902
Text by William Innes Homer and Catherine Johnson.
1902 was witness to the first American movement, under the guidance of Alfred Stieglitz,
to champion ‘pictorial’ photography—photography that took as its goal a deep emotional
response rather than merely a record of an event. “The point is, what you have to say and
how to say it. The originality of a work of art refers to the originality of the thing expressed
and the way it is expressed, whether it be in poetry, photography, or painting.”—Stieglitz.
To celebrate the centenary of the landmark Photo-Secession exhibition of 1902 at New
York’s National Arts Club, Professor William Innes Homer and author Catherine Johnson
have undertaken to reassemble, as best as possible, the pieces exhibited at that show. The
roster of photographers is fantastic and it’s hard to imagine that at the time not a single artist exhibited had been
collected by a major museum. Viking Studio, East Rutherford, 2002. 144 pp., 75 color illustrations, 9×12″.

Heute Bis Jetzt: Contemporary
Photography from Düsseldorf, Volumes I & II
Text by Jean-Hubert Martin and Rupert Pfab.
Düsseldorf is an acknowledged center of German and European photography, but the influence that the photographers associated with
the fabled Düsseldorf Kunstakademie have had is undeniably global.
These two volumes offer a survey of a total of 34 photographers and
were organized around a major exhibition, also in two parts, that took
place in the Spring and Summer of 2002. Though the text, which is
minimal, is entirely in German, the volumes are well worth the inconvenience of the language barrier. A brief biography on each photographer is printed along with 1 to 3 page spreads of images. Some of the artists include Bernd
and Hilla Becher, Andreas Gursky, Mischa Kuball, Axel Hütte, Candida Höfer, Thomas Struth, and Elger Esser. They
are an indispensable guide to one of the most important photography programs in the world. Schirmer/Mosel
Verlag, Munich, 2002. 174 pp., numerous color and black-and-white illustrations, 7½×9¾″. In German.

Dreaming in Print: A Decade of Visionaire
Text by David Bowie, Karl Lagerfeld, and Mario Testino.
“From the acclaimed, best-selling Fashion issue packaged in a Louis Vuitton
clutch, to the battery operated Light issue and the Bible issue’s good book floating in a Philippe Starck case, the story of Visionaire is about pushing the boundaries of print and transforming fantasy into reality. Founded in 1991 as a journal
of inspiration, a collection of artwork and images hand-assembled by a group of
friends in a one-room apartment in New York City, Visionaire has since grown into
one of the most highly sought-after fashion and art publications in the world.
Dreaming in Print takes an intimate look at the publication’s history and examines the making of each groundbreaking issue.”—the publisher. New York, 2002. 220 pp., 400 color illustrations, 13½×11″.

The Nature of Still Life: From Fox Talbot to the Present Day
Edited with text by Peter Weiermair.
Neglected in most histories of photography, Weiermair argues that the still life has been
a classic field of experimentation in modern art, with obvious roots in antiquity. What
this major exhibition and catalogue, hope to accomplish is nothing less than a reversal
of interest in such a rich field. Weiermair, as curator, places no disproportionate emphasis on any of the three half-century periods to date in photographic history, though one
could easily imagine an undue presentation of 19th century works around this theme.
The result is magnificent; a volume filled with gorgeous photographs spanning the full
range of the medium’s history, printed on sumptuous matte paper. Electa, Milano, 2001.

While technology and urban
sprawl have transformed
much of our country in the
last half of the twentieth century, Jack Leigh has been
quietly documenting the people and the landscape of the
Southeastern coast, a region
steeped in history and tradition. His subjects range from
solitary oystermen working
the fog-shrouded salt marshes
of South Carolina to shrimp
fishermen at sea to the
swamps and marsh flats
along Georgia’s Ogeechee
river. Here, Leigh is both
inclusive and expansive,
offering some of his most
memorable images as well as
recent work that synthesizes
the beauty and emotional grip
the South has on many of us.

1000 Forbidden Pictures: Cheesecake!
Text by Mark Rotenberg.
It sounds ridiculously tongue-incheek to state that the essay at the
beginning of this book of campy
nude photographs is well worth
reading, but it truly is. Rotenberg
attributes the explosion of early1950s popular photography to the
returning GIs of WWII, many of
whom had been issued cameras as part of their duties
in the war effort. Long years in tanks and trenches had
accustomed them to gazing at unattainable women in
photographs; the term “pin-up” is a direct result of the
war. The collection here is a treasure trove of mid-century American photographs. Taschen, Los Angeles, 2002.
