Zustand: Von sehr guter Erhaltung. Wie ungelesen. Keine Remittende / Condition: In very good condition. As if unread. No reissue. - An outspoken memoir by a much-celebrated Indian filmmaker. ?I am a filmmaker by accident and an author by compulsion,? claims Mrinal Sen, who became part of the great triumvirate of Bengali cinema?along with Satyajit Ray and Ritwik Ghatak?in the 1950s and ?60s when he founded the rebellious Indian New Wave. Throughout his career, he kept that fire of protest burning, his acute political awareness and left-wing orientation spurring his creativity. Over decades, the themes that pervaded his cinema mirrored the spectrum of human suffering and experience, and in turn crystallized the anger of a restive mind against social injustice, economic deprivation, and communal divide. In this memoir, a celebrated ambassador of Indian cinema on the global stage, for whom cinema became a lexicon that gave voice to the times, reflects on encounters with the legends of the world of images as well as his inspirations and obsessions?not least among them, the city of Calcutta. Always Being Born is a fascinating memoir of a great artist and a buoyant social commentator who continued to confront, fight, and survive on the very challenges that propelled him to look beyond and dream.

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 204 pages. Published in 2004. Retrospective collection of essays on music. Now considered a contemporary classic. 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 scarce. Presents John Luther Adams' "Winter Music: Composing The North". Reflections from Fairbanks, Alaska, where Adams lives and creates a unique musical world grounded in the elemental landscapes and indigenous cultures of the North. "Poetic and inspirational, delves into the environmental and cultural awareness that creates his reflective, almost spiritual, approach to music. The accompanying Audio CD includes two previously unrecorded works. Adams' music explores natural phenomena, from the songs of birds to the complex nature of chaos, fractal geometry, and elemental noise. Explores 'that region between place and culture, between environment and imagination', reflecting a philosophy of deep awareness that makes him one of the most original composers working today" (Publisher's blurb). "He sees art as invigorating, resonant, relevant. And, a welcome surprise, civic" (Barry Lopez). An absolute "must-have" title for John Luther Adams collectors. This copy is very prominently, neatly, and beautifully signed, dated, and inscribed in black ink-pen on the front free endpaper by the composer/author: "For Susan Berresford, with gratitude and warm wishes, John Luther Adams 11.VI.11". It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. The recipient, Susan Vail Berresford, who is named, was the President of the Ford Foundation from 1996-2007, supporting, among other worthy causes, Adams and his music. This title is a great book. This is the only such signed, dated, and inscribed copy of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare signed copy thus.

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 132 pages. Published in 2002. Retrospective collection of photographs on subject. One of Art Shay's finest achievements. 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 by a University Press. The First Edition is now scarce. An austerely elegant production by Art Shay: Oversize-volume format. Hard boards with titles printed on cover and spine, as issued. Photographs and text by Art Shay. Printed on pristine-white, thick coated stock paper in the United States to the highest standards. In pictorial DJ with titles on the cover and spine, as issued. Presents "Animals: Photographs by Art Shay". The photographer's complete suite of animal photographs. They are, inevitably, reminiscent of Garry Winogrand's "The Animals" in their cheerful and casual yet perceptive approach, and marked by Art Shay's warmth and humanity. "Few can dispute that animals are among the most sublime wonders of the world we inhabit. These photographs bridge some of the differences by surveying the landscapes that humans and animals share: African jungles, Ohio waterways, the wild streets of New York City and Chicago, circuses, carnivals, zoos from California to Florida, and the sky that arches over all life. Culled from five decades' worth of the acclaimed photographer's illustrious body of work, these pictures lovingly and often acerbically capture miraculous moments of creatures great and small, wild and domestic. Artful and moving, they run the gamut of emotions from pity and compassion to laughter and joy. The Ark-like juxtaposition and pairing of images catch the interaction between humans and animals: How we imitate them and they, in turn, us. By turns compassionate, ironic, and capricious, this masterful collection affirms our abiding fascination with the animal world. A treasure" (Publisher's blurb). An absolute "must-have" title for Art Shay collectors. This copy is very prominently, beautifully and uniquely signed, dated (on the day of publication), and inscribed in black pen on the front free endpaper by the photographer: "For Paul, A fine artist, a great student of photographers & best of all, a friend. With love & thanks, Art Shay, May 23, 02". It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. The recipient, Paul Berlanga, who is named, is one of Chicago's finest artists and photography experts, and is acknowledged as such by the photographer. This title is a contemporary photography classic. As far as we know, this is the only such signed, inscribed, and publication-day dated copy of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. A rare signed copy thus. One of the finest American photographers of the 20th century. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER ART SHAY AND LEE BALTERMAN TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0252027426.

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 127 pages. Complete collection of the photographer's Polaroid photographs. 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 scarce. A brilliant production by Laura Lindgren: Small-size volume format, in keeping with the square shape of the Polaroid photograph. Photographs by Andre Kertesz. Text by Robert Gurbo, Curator of the Andre Kertesz Estate. Foreword by Eelco Wolf, the then Executive Director of the Polaroid Corporation. Printed on pristine-white, thick coated stock paper by Mondadori Publishers through EBS in Verona, Italy to the highest standards. In pictorial DJ with titles on the cover and spine, as issued. Published on the occasion of the travelling exhibition held in major galleries in Toronto, Chicago, and New York from 2007 through 2008. Presents "Andre Kertesz: The Polaroids". The penultimate body of work by one of the "true greats" of 20th-century photography. "We see a still-fertile mind at work, combining personal objects into striking still lifes set against cityscape backgrounds, reflected and transformed in glass surfaces" (Robert Gurbo). 53 of the Polaroid images first appeared in "From My Window" (1981), the last original body of work Kertesz published before he died in 1985 (glorious retrospectives dominated his last published books). The present volume posthumously presents the Polaroids in their entirety, notably a semi-"Distorted Mirror" image of Susan Nash, the stunningly beautiful wife of rock music legend Graham Nash, who were major collectors of his work, as well as Robert Gurbo himself in his playboy-handsome youth. Martin Parr was right to point out how, through the Polaroid camera, Kertesz made a very late shift from black-and-white to color successfully: They do look like authentic color imagery rather than black-and-white rendered in color (which tonal change Robert Frank believed he could never have pulled off nor wish to even attempt). An absolute "must-have" title for Andre Kertesz collectors. This copy is very prominently and beautifully signed, dated, and inscribed (in Dutch) in red ink-pen on the title page by the former Executive Director of The Polaroid Corporation, who wrote the Foreword: "June 27, 2009 Voor mijn vriend Carl, door dir e door dun! Eelco" (Literal translation: "For my friend Carl, through and through! Eelco [Wolf]"). It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. Carl, the recipient, a great photographer in his own right, and close friend of Kertesz, then very prominently, discreetly, and beautifully signed his name in black ink-pen on the front free endpaper: "Chiarenza". This title is a great art photography book. This is the only such double-signed, dated, and inscribed copy of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. A rare, one-of-a-kind signed copy thus. 81 plates. Andre Kertesz's "Day of Paris" was selected as one of the greatest photography books in "The Photobook". One of the greatest photographers of the 20th century. A fine collectible copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER ANDRE KERTESZ TITLES IN OUR CATALOG). Signed by Author(s).…
