A NEAR FINE, BRIGHT, CLEAN, TIGHT, COLLECTOR-WORTHY COPY sans rips/tears, stains, discoloration, etc. ILLUSTRATED in black-and-white photography. "In the past thirteen years artist Willa Shalit has worked on a fascinating and humane project: creating plaster masks of many of the notable figures of our time. Shalit's evocative impressions capture subtle nuances of gesture and emotion and reveal the true essence behind the mask of glamour, celebrity, and fame. 'Life Cast' documents the profound results of Shalit's dedication to an art that dates back to the Egyptian pharaohs. Through a combination of photographs and Shalit's personal reminiscences of the castings, readers are provided an intimate, off-camera view of more than thirty larger-than-life luminaries." Plaster masks include those of Richard Nixon, Richard Burton, Sophia Loren, Paul Newman, Sammy Davis Jr., Whoopi Goldberg, Isaac Stern, Rosa Parks, Ronald Reagan, The Dalai Lama, Michelle Pfeiffer, Norman Schwarzkopf, etc. 95 pages. *NOTE: Due to size/weight of book additional shipping will be required for out-of-U.S. shipment in conjunction with destination.
