Aggiungi al carrelloHardcover. Condizione: New. Han kände tidigt att han inte hörde hemma i moderns hus, skolan, heterosexualiteten och gråbergets land. En ung man reser ut i världen till Florens, Paris, Mallorca, Sevilla och New York. Det är 1950-tal, bara några år efter krigets slut och Italien och Spanien är slitna och fattiga som i neorealismens filmer. Tecknaren och författaren Claes Bäckström (19272015) fotograferade med konstnärens blick, utan "konstnärlig" retorik men med en lågmäld saklighetens poesi. Han såg människor, gator, broar, den fräcka livskraften i gatpojkarnas blick och åtbörder. Det är foton i anspråkslösa format, då kontaktkopierade i tobaksaffärer i Florens och Paris. Och han skrev om resandets drift: avgörande episoder, utmejslade med lätt hand. De rör sig mellan barndomsminnen, platser och oväntade möten, det kan vara boxaren Joe Walcott, tjurfäktaren Dominguín och J.R. Efterkrigstidens försiktiga framtidsljus. Flydd tid, återvunnen tid. = He felt early on that he did not belong in his mother's house, school, heterosexuality and the land of the gray mountain. A young man travels the world to Florence, Paris, Mallorca, Seville and New York. It is the 1950s, just a few years after the end of the war and Italy and Spain are worn and poor as in the films of neorealism. The illustrator and author Claes Bäckström (19272015) photographed with the artist's gaze, without "artistic" rhetoric but with a low-key poetry of objectivity. He saw people, streets, bridges, the cheeky vitality of the street boys' looks and actions. These are photos in unassuming formats, then copied in tobacco shops in Florence and Paris. And he wrote about the operation of travel: crucial episodes, carved out with a light hand. They move between childhood memories, places and unexpected encounters, it could be boxer Joe Walcott, bullfighter Dominguín and J.R. The cautious future light of the post-war period. Escape time, recycled time. / Peter Cornell 55 b/w and 4 color images Text by Claes Bäckström Afterword: Marie Lundquist, Gösta Flemming, Peter Cornell Editing and design: Gösta Flemming Hard cover 150 x 200 mm 126 pages Swedish.
