Erstausgabe
First Edition. Folio. A stunning compendium of 319 photographs from the Bamako portrait studio of Seydou Keïta (1921-2001), the self-taught photographer who would eventually become the official photographer of the Malian state. Accompanied by interview with Keïta, in conversation with André Magnin (1995), and an insightful text by Kathy Ryan on Keïta's practice. "Keïta's portraits are exceptional testimonials of 1948 Malian society, during the initial years of the [independence movement]. He intuitively reinvented the art of portraiture, searching for elegant poses, delicate gestures, and the soft look that gave his portraits unmatched refinement" (Magnin). A fine copy in pictorial cloth boards with cover-image affixed to front panel. One of Steidl's collaborations with Pascal Dangin; a truly impressive production.

Text in english. Perfect condition! Collector`s copy! "Seydou Keïta was born in Bamako, Mali in 1921, then part of the colony of French Sudan and a bustling transportation hub on the route to Dakar. With a Kodak Brownie given to him by his uncle, Keïta took up photography at the age of fourteen, going on to establish what would become Bamako`s most successful portraiture enterprise of the 1950s and 60s. Photographs, Bamako, Mali 1949-1970 draws on an expanded archive to offer over 400 portraits, mostly unpublished, from the height of the photographer`s productivity in downtown Bamako. Providing lushly patterned backdrops and props that now serve to date distinct periods in his career, the artist often styled his subjects but also encouraged their active participation, hanging sample portraits around the studio as inspiration. Migratory youth, government officials, shop owners and Bamako`s cultural elite all make appearances here, and while Keïta`s photographs served as both family record and cultural status symbol for the clients who commissioned them, these images have become a lasting visual record of Mali at that time." (from the publisher) Seydou Keïta`s work made its first international appearance in 1991 and has been exhibited extensively across Europe, Japan, and the United States.**********Steidldangin, Göttingen. 2011.

Brand new in the original publisher's shrinkwrap and still in the original shipping box. DJ has light shelf-wear present to the DJ extremities. No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks, binding tight and solid. African portraitist Seydou Keïta lived in Bamako, Mali, then part of the colony of French Sudan and a bustling transportation hub on the route to Dakar, from 1921 to 2001. A self-taught photographer, with a Kodak Brownie given to him by his uncle, Keita took up photography at the age of fourteen, he opened a studio in 1948 and specialized in portraiture. Seydou Keïta s photographs eloquently portray Bamako society during its era of transition from a cosmopolitan French colony to an independent capital. Whether photographing single individuals, families, or professional associations, Keïta balanced a strict sense of formality with a remarkable level of intimacy with his subjects. Like many professional photographers, he furnished his studio with numerous props, from backdrops and costumes, to Vespas and luxury cars. He would renew these props every few years, which later allowed him to establish a chronology for his work He worked intuitively, reinventing portrait photography through his search for extreme precision. In 1962 the newly installed Socialist government made Keïta its official photographer; shortly thereafter he closed down his studio, although he remained active until his retirement in 1977. His archive of over 10,000 negatives was gradually brought to light in the early 1990s; Keïta has since achieved international recognition. Inventive and highly modern, his emphasis on the essential components of portrait photography light, subject, framing firmly establishes Keïta among the twentieth-century masters of the genre.
