Western Photography Guild, 1955. Photographic Image. Very Good. No Binding. Twelve 4 x 5 vintage sepia toned gelatin silver photographs from two different sessions, one inside and the other out. There is a slight waviness to the paper of each photograph, consistent with age. Else, they are in fine condition. None are signed, but each are stamped on the back: "Western Photography Guild / Box 2801 - Denver 1, Colorado" and additionally stamped in sequence from 55-1 through 55-12. It is presumed, but not known for certain that "55" refers to the year of the images. (in my images of the backs of the photographs, there is no black line around the edges.) All twelve images from both sessions feature the same two handsome nude bodybuilders. One sequence is in a studio, while the other is shot on the rocks of the mountains surrounding Denver, where Don Whitman and his Western Photography Guild were based. The motto of WPG was "Men to Match the Mountains" and these photographs… Leer más

Rock Foundation, New York, 2001. Book. Fine Condition. Wrappers, with board Box. Beautifully printed reproductions, each on a separate sheet, of 21 sketches by the Eskimo native, collected at the turn of the 20th century by Robert Flaherty. Cased in a cloth covered clamshell box with separately printed sewn wrapper commentary by the esteemed anthropologist Edmund Carpneter nearly a century later. Only two copies of the original 1915 book are known to exist. This facsimile copy is an unnumbered copy from an edition of 200. Drawings by the Eskimo at this time were exceptionally rare, and the harsh weather of the region isolated the native peoples from the art traditions of the world. But these minute, spare, and sensitive renditions of a life lived closely tied to nature, the walrus, the caribou, the hunt. An exquisite production of a rare glimpse into what is still a little explored world..

Although flattened for years, creases and some handling marks remain, with a small degree of soiling, consistent with age. Red stripes on recto, First set of dates "X'd" out on the verso. Daniel Buren (French, born 1938), the groundbreaking conceptual artist, collaborated with the renowned Antwerp gallery Wide White Space to publish offset lithographic posters of stripes to serve as the announcement and poster for a series of five exhibitions held between 1969-1974. Pasted to the exterior of the building, the posters served not only as an announcement, but they were the art. From the street, the pasted stripes led visitors into the gallery, with the expectation of more to be seen inside. But once inside, the marching pasted line of knee-high stripes merely continued. Was street art being legitimized? Were expectations… Leer más
