Hardcover. Gray casebound book. There is a dust jacket with the title in white down a pinkish spine. Pages: (4), 5-219, (1). Profusely illustrated with both color and black-and-white images. "In Sheila Metzner's photographs, beauty is truly more than skin-deep. She is known for creating rich and refined images for the fashion and television industries, and her textural surfaces and attention to aesthetics have made her work popular since the 1970s with clients as diverse as Fendi, Ralph Lauren, Chanel, and Victoria's Secret. Recasting history for her own demands, Metzner hovers between the pictorialist aesthetic of Alfred Stieglitz or Edward Steichen and the modernist edge of such photographers as Man Ray and Charles Sheeler. The end results, while paying homage, are uniquely Metzner's own and have left a major impression on the history of photography. The transcendent quality of many of Metzner's photographs is enhanced by a printing process invented by the Fresson family in 1895 and still practiced in the family's atelier outside of Paris. Creating using the Fresson process-a painterly approach known as process de charbon that incorporates up to seven pigment colors-many of the images presented here reveal a tonal range and color saturation that is ethereal and magical. Metzner is one of just ten American photographers with whom the Atelier Fresson is willing to work, and Form and Fashion artfully presents some of the results of this creative collaboration. These images, as well as Metzner's work in Polaroid and gelatin silver, show an artist in constant quest for the ideal forms of beauty. Form and Fashion presents a generous commingling of Metzner's fashion work with her sensual and erotic nudes and formalist still lifes created between 1980 and 2000. The effect of this retrospective juxtaposition suggests a heady romanticism balanced by her precisionist style and sense of detail. For the very first time, Form and Fashion presents the singularity of Metzner's creative mind, showcasing images that resound on their own terms with elegance and distinction." VG/VG: Exlibrary book. Sticker on dust jacket at the base of the spine. Stamp on front free end page. Sticker and due date card on back pasted end page. Stamp on top text block.…

A comprehensive retrospective and update of the photographer's Pre-Raphaelite-dreamy, delicate, gossamer work. The concluding volume of the trilogy that begins with "Objects of Desire" (1986) and continues with "Color" (1991). Includes commissioned work for some of the most prestigious brand names in high fashion such as Fendi, Ralph Lauren, Chanel, and also Victoria's Secret, male and female nudes, celebrity portraits of such figures as Warren Beatty (in one of the best photographs ever taken of him), Willem Dafoe, Uma Thurman, Tilda Swinton, Brooke Shields (a fabulous image), Kim Basinger, Tina Chow, Helena Bonham Carter, Isabella Rossellini, the very young David Lynch, and stylized still lifes created between 1980 and 2000. Metzner's mentors are Alfred Stieglitz and Edward Steichen as well as Man Ray and Charles Sheeler. The first two taught her how to take a good picture; the latter two, how to put her own distinctive personal stamp on it. The result is an extravagant display of romance, brilliance, and passion, and "a heady romanticism balanced by her precisionist style and sense of detail" (Publisher's blurb). An absolute "must-have" title for Sheila Metzner collectors. This title is a contemporary art photography classic.

Tapa blanda. Condizione: New. Aunque se suele creer que el origen del Body Horror como subgénero de terror se remonta a la década de 1970, Joyce Carol Oates sugiere que Medusa, la gorgona de la mitología griega, es el «emblema por excelencia del horror corporal femenino». En Perversas. Nuevas historias de Body Horror escritas por mujeres, Oates ha reunido a un elenco espectacular de autoras para explorar este subgénero centrado en la transgresión de los límites del cuerpo humano de formas terribles e insólitas. «Aunque no conociéramos nada de los monstruos femeninos de la antigüedad», escribe Oates en su introducción al volumen, «sabríamos que, en sus innumerables manifestaciones, el horror corporal se dirige con más fuerza a las mujeres y a las niñas. Ser mujer es habitar un cuerpo que por naturaleza es vulnerable a la invasión forzosa, susceptible a la penetración y al embarazo, y condenado a sufrir el parto y sus secuelas, que en épocas pasadas conllevaba, además, un importante riesgo de muerte.».…
