Black and white pictorial paper covers with French flaps; front cover bearing a close-up black-and-white photograph of an eye; mild surface and edge wear. Binding tight. Pages clean and unmarked.A survey of the work of Charles Brittin (1928-2011), a Los Angeles photographer whose images captured a pivotal period in the city's bohemian cultural life. From 1950 onward, Brittin moved through the inner circle of the emerging LA art scene, documenting Ed Kienholz, Wallace Berman, Walter Hopps, John Altoon, and George Herms at work and play in Venice Beach studios and galleries. His photographs of the Ferus Gallery milieu are among the most intimate records of that moment in California art history. As the Beat era gave way to the sixties, Brittin turned his camera to the civil rights movement, photographing the Watts riots, Black Panther funerals, and the Mississippi Delta, producing documentary work of equal power alongside his bohemian portraiture. Accompanied by a substantial interview with Kristine McKenna tracing Brittin's career and his decades of engagement with the Los Angeles avant-garde.…

Soft Cover. Condizione: Fine. First Edition. Text: English. 86 p.; b/w photographs; 21 x 28 cm. Exhibition catalogue. Charles Brittin took photographs of his friends, the underground artists and poets in Los Angeles during the 50's/60's. Fortunately, he captured the scene; otherwise, there would be almost no visual record of it. He didn't take snap shots. All are beautifully composed and outstanding photographs of individuals who influenced his life and creativity. Brittin also became involved in the civil rights movement and had his camera ready to document the brutality he experienced while marching with demonstrators. In 1999 there was a retrospect of these photographs as well as those he took of his 50s companions at the Craig Krull Gallery in Santa Monica. This gallery published an excellent book of his work from that show. Over the years he has continued in his chosen field of photography and has been exhibited in galleries and museums throughout the world. Now his photographs are in the archives at the Getty Museum in Los Angeles. Fine.…

Hardcover. Condizione: New. Throughout the 1950s, Charles Brittin was the unofficial house photographer for the Beat community that coalesced around the artist Wallace Berman. Brittin settled in Venice Beach, California, in 1951, and his beach shack became a hangout for the Berman circle, which included actors Dean Stockwell and Dennis Hopper, artist John Altoon, curator Walter Hopps and poet David Meltzer, among many others. A self-taught photographer, Brittin was working as a mailman at the time, and spent much of his free time wandering the streets with a camera; he came to know Venice intimately, and his pictures of the town are freighted with a hushed beauty and forlorn sweetness. In the early 1960s the focus of Brittin's life shifted dramatically when he became involved with the civil rights movement. "I suddenly realized I was compelled to do something," Brittin recalls, "because the times demanded it." As a photographer for the Congress of Racial Equality, Brittin documented the dramatic non-violent protests that occurred throughout Southern California, and made a courageous trip to the deep South, in 1965, to assist with the registration of black voters. As the 60s progressed he documented the antiwar movement, and by the end of the decade was devoting most of his time to the Black Panther Party. These two very different social revolutions are at the heart of Charles Brittin: West and South. With 150 images--138 of them previously unpublished--this monograph is published on the occasion of a 2011 retrospective at Michael Kohn Gallery in Los Angeles.Charles Brittin (born 1928) moved to California from Cedar Rapids, Iowa, after enrolling at UCLA. He contributed several photographs to Wallace Berman's Semina magazine throughout the 50s and 60s, while working as a photographer for Charles and Ray Eames. After a two-decade hiatus, Brittin returned to photography in the 1990s, also making video works.…
