Prima edizione
Soft cover. Condizione: As New. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. 20 pages. Published in 2017. Exhibition Catalog. One of the most beautiful catalogs ever published on the photographic art and achievement of Susan Meiselas' "Nicaragua" sequence of images. The first and only edition. Published in a small and limited print run as a softcover original only. There is no ISBN. The Exhibition Catalog is now scarce. A brilliant production by Stephen Daiter Gallery: Regular-sized volume format. Pictorial softcovers with photographic reproductions on the front and back covers, as issued. Photographs by Susan Meiselas: Eighteen chromogenic prints from "Nicaragua". Text Excerpts by three Nicaraguan victims of the Anastasio Somoza Regime. Printed on pristine-white, glossy stock paper in the United States to the highest standards. The reproduction quality is exemplary in every respect. Without DJ, as issued. Published on the occasion of the exhibition of the same name held at the Stephen Daiter Gallery Chicago from May 5 through July 29, 2017. Re-presents Susan Meiselas' "Nicaragua: '78-79". A dazzling and profoundly moving selection of the photographer's cinematic coverage of the Nicaraguan Revolution: Full-page color photographs that tell their compelling and dramatic story solely through still images. "An extraordinary narrative of a nation in turmoil. Traces the evolution of the popular resistance that led to the insurrection, culminating with the triumph of the Sandinista Revolution in 1979" (Publisher's blurb). A graduate of Harvard University, Susan Meiselas taught at various public schools before joining The Magnum Agency in 1976. She burst into national and international prominence with her very first book, "Carnival Strippers", a collection of black-and-white photographs of professional strippers in New England states. Her shift to color represents an achievement of the first rank in the history of photojournalism. Indeed, very few have used color to capture spontaneous events with such sensitivity, beauty, and overwhelming power: "Color photographs of this kind inevitably give way to gore or to the aestheticization of violence. Here, instead, we have enormous control, a sense of the everyday, and a vitality rooted in an active community" (John Berger). An absolute "must-have" title for Susan Meiselas collectors. This title is a contemporary art photography classic. As far as we know, this is the only copy of the Exhibition Catalog available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: This is a copy of the Exhibition Catalog, which reproduces the all-new prints from Susan Meiselas' "Nicaragua" sequence. Should NOT be confused with the book of the same title. Acquired in their entirety by a major collector, the reproductions of the prints are superior in terms of production values to the original book, making this Catalog eminently collectible for completists. A scarce copy thus. 18 color plates. One of the most brilliant photographers of our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER SUSAN MEISELAS TITLES IN OUR CATALOG). no.

Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Near Fine. 1st Edition.

A faint touch of sunfading to the top edges of the binding. Faint stain to 1st free endpaper and a slight bit of foxing to the fore-edge of the book block.

The book, Lest We Forget: Emirati Family Photographs 1950-1999, explores the experiences of Emirati people during the early decades of nation building. Daily life in this rapidly evolving landscape is captured through personal stories and family photographs. These differ from the widely known photographs taken by the government, oil companies, missionaries and travelers. They were not intended to document media events or official protocol; instead these candid images captured private, lasting memories. This is the first publication of such important vernacular material. A group of eight Emirati female students of Zayed University began this project four years ago, with nearly fifty students gradually contributing their family family photographs and oral histories to a collaboratively designed and authored book. Their professor, Dr. Michele Bambling, and renowned photographer Susan Meiselas guided the students' creative approach to exploring their family photographs. Documented by their own cameras and told through their own memories, the book offers an Emirati perspective on life in their nation during the second half of the twentieth century. "This book and its accompanying exhibition and archive, was conceived as an extended research project I conducted with my students of curatorial practices at Zayed University, Abu Dhabi, over a three-year period, beginning in 2010. Building on that foundation, I helped establish 'Lest We Forget' as a creative archival initiative under the auspices of the Salama bint Hamdan Al Nahyan Foundation. To date, more than one hundred Emirati female university students, interns and volunteers have since contributed their photographs, stories, memories, artistic talent and time to create the integral book, exhibition and archive collaboratively."
