Prima edizione Copia autografata
Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 144 pages. Published in 2004. Retrospective collection of color photographs. The single best introduction to the photographic art and achievement of Robert Polidori. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now rare. A brilliant production by Robert Polidori and Gerhard Steidl: Oversize-volume format. Pale gray cloth boards with titles embossed on cover and spine, as issued. Photographs and text by Robert Polidori. Essays by Martin C. Pedersen, Criswell Lappin, and Elizabeth Culbert. Printed on pristine-white, thick coated stock paper by Steidl in Gottingen, Germany to the highest standards. In pictorial DJ with titles on the cover and spine, as issued. Presents Robert Polidori's "Metropolis". The finest and most representative images of one of the most influential photographers of urban places, architectures, and other man-made structures. "Not only is he the world's preeminent architecture photographer, Robert Polidori is also a master of urban portraiture. The Montreal-born photographer has made haunting studies of bombed-out buildings in Beirut, decaying New York tenements, Versailles rooms in dusty disarray, Brasilia's paean to spare 1950's Modernism, and, most recently, the abandoned, contaminated cities of Chernobyl and Pripyat. Taken together, they add to his ongoing project: The interpretation of the interrupted urban landscape. Combines the eye of a celebrated photographer with the distinctive voice of an artist and adventurer. Each breathtaking image, meticulously selected by the photographer from his own personal archive, is accompanied by a compelling first-person account, based on interviews conducted by Martin C. Pedersen. The world's great cities as seen through the eyes of a sharp social observer and a great photographer" (Publisher's blurb). An absolute "must-have" title for Robert Polidori collectors. This copy is very prominently, neatly, and beautifully signed and dated in black ink-pen on the title page by the photographer: "Robert Polidori 2006". It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. It comes with a pristine copy of "Robert Polidori Spezial Fotografie", one of the principal titles in the Fotografie Series, and one of the rarest, available in Europe only. The zine format is oversize and very beautifully produced. This title is a contemporary photography classic. This is one of few such signed and dated copies (with Spezial Fotografie Issue) of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. A rare signed copy. 93 color plates. One of the most brilliant photographers of our time. A fine copy. ISBN 3865210783. Signed by Author.

Prima edizione Copia autografata
Cloth in Dust Jacket. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fine. First Edition. 144pp, 93 color illustrations. "Not only is he one of the world's preeminent architectural photographers, Robert Polidori is also - as his popular book "Havana" proved - a master of urban portraiture. The Montreal-born photographer has made haunting studies of bombed-out buildings in Beirut, decaying New York tenements, Versailles rooms in dusty disarray, Brasilia's paean to spare '50s modernism, and, most recently, the abandoned, contaminated cities of Chernobyl and Pripyat. Taken together, they add to his ongoing project: the interpretation of the interrupted urban landscape. This new monograph combines the eye of a celebrated photographer with the distinctive voice of an artist and adventurer. Each breathtaking image (meticulously selected by the photographer from his own personal archive) is accompanied by a compelling first person account, based on interviews conducted by Martin C. Pedersen, executive editor of Metropolis magazine. Polidori tells behind-the-scene stories about the making of his photographs, talks about what makes a building photogenic, how he shoots buildings he doesn't like, his favorite architects, and his love of mosques. "Metropolis" is a look at the world's great cities as seen through the eyes of a sharp social observer, and a great photographer". A pristine copy additionally SIGNED AND DATED "Robert Polidori 2004" in the year of publication in black ink on the title page. Signed and Dated by the Photographer. Photography Monograph.
