Seller's Description:
Very Good. Hardcover. 4to. Nazraeli Press, Portland, Oregon. 2007. 72 pgs. Illustrated with 57 duotone plates. Signed by the author on the title page. First Edition/First Printing. Bound in paper covered boards with pastedown present to the front board. Boards have light shelf-wear present to the extremities (bumped upper right corner of the boards). No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. Renowned for his modest yet powerful photographs that capture the sense of displacement and isolation felt by many young Americans, Mark Steinmetz photographed in and around Knoxville, Tennessee to create the work that makes up South Central. The title of the book is derived from the South Central Bell telephone company that serves Knoxville, and their public payphones are a recurring theme in this work; an iconic reminder of the area's socio-economic condition. The artist possesses an uncanny ability to pull folly, aggression and tenderness through his lens simultaneously, and delivers with this book a powerful and touching visual novel of the human condition. Beautifully printed in duotone on matte art paper, South Central is printed in a first edition of 1, 000 casebound copies. Mark Steinmetz is a Guggenheim Fellow. His work is included in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Art Institute of Chicago, and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. EB; 0.5 x 12 x 10.4 Inches; 71 pages.
