Articoli correlati a Ida Kar-Photographer 1908-74
When Ida Kar came to London in 1945, she left behind her in Cairo a reputation as a stylish avant-garde photographer. With ebullience and determination, she found in London a new Bohemia and spent the next 15 years portraying it. She photographed tirelessly, almost every new and important writer and artist from Doris Lessing to T.S.Eliot, David Hockney to Margot Fonteyn. Her documentary studies of London street life and her explorations of her homeland Armenia and Castro's Cuba exploded on the British cultural scene at a time when phtotography was excluded from the domain of high art. This study deals with Ida Kar's life and work in both biographical and aesthetic terms, making extensive use of correspondence and interviews from her recent but strangely obscure past and brings together her most haunting and evocative pictures - a statement and testimony of her life and times. Val Williams is the author of "Women Photographers: The Other Observers 1900 to the Present".

Descrizione libro Softcover. Condizione: Good+. Ida Kar (1908 - 1974) came to London from Armenia where she helped propel photography in a recognized form of fine art. She photographed the London scene for many years, Castro's Cuba, etc. Especially well-known for her portraits, the author explores both her life and her art in the first half of the book (illustrated with photos). There are about 83 full page b&w plates of some of her best work in the rear. The covers are white, printed stiff wrappers illustrated with photos. There is a light crease to the upper corner of the front wrapper, and a small rubbed spot toward the bottom; there is faint age spotting to the covers which prevents this book from being in very good condition. The contents are clean, tight and unmarked with no interior or exterior markings, owner names, underlining or highlighting. Please inquire if you would like more information. It is probably a first edition, however it is not stated as such. Virago Press was founded in 1973 as a feminist publishing house to "champion women's voices." ; B&W Photographs; 4to 11" - 13" tall; 158 pages; Signed by All Authors. Codice articolo 20626
