Hardcover. Zustand: gut. 1993. A startling new look at the life's work of a photographer who had an enormous impact on the way we see the world. Über den Autor: RICHARD AVEDON (b. 1923) was the editor, with his classmate James Baldwin, of The Magpie, the literary magazine at De Witt Clinton High School in the Bronx. In 1942 he joined the photography department of the U.S. merchant marine. He was a staff photographer at I>Harper's Bazaar (1951-1965) and Vogue (1966-1988), and he collaborated with James Baldwin on Nothing Personal (1964), a book about the civil rights movement. In 1992 he became the first staff photographer at The New Yorker. This is a big and heavy book. All pictures are black and white. No text, only pictures. The print is very good. Each picture cover all the page (much bigger than a A4). My only complain is the few number of pictures spread in two pages. I don't like pictures divided in this way. Except for the two-pages pictures, the book oposes two pictures, one in each page. Many comparisons are poweful, funny or interesting, but others are not. For instance, see the pages with the snake-hunter and Truman Capote, or the pages with Dick Hickcock and his father, etc. There are many portraits, a few fashion pictures (too few) and a lot of "reportage" pictures. Portraits are the most interesting pictures of the book. The book is organized in three parts. The three parts combine the three types of pictures (portraits, fashion, reportage), but the mixture is different in each case. I love parts 1 and 2 but the selection of the part 3 is strange, with many pictures taken at a mental hospital, victims of the napalm in Vietnam, etc. Most of these pictures are heavily granulated. To sum-up, the quality of the book is very high, very interesting, great prints. but the selection is not 100% of my liking in the third part of the book.

First edition, signed limited issue, number 81 of 250 copies signed and numbered by the photographer, with an engraver's proof photograph of Marilyn Monroe loosely inserted as issued. Avedon's photographic autobiography ranges from his earliest private pictures to the snapshots of stars that made his name. His "fashion and portrait photographs helped define America's image of style, beauty, and culture for the last half-century" (New York Times obituary). The print is Avedon's most famous portrait of Monroe, taken in his studio in May 1957. "For hours she danced and sang and flirted and did this thing that's - she did Marilyn Monroe", he recalled. "And then there was the inevitable drop. And when the night was over and the white wine was over and the dancing was over, she sat in the corner like a child, with everything gone. I saw her sitting quietly without expression on her face, and I walked towards her but I wouldn't photograph her without her knowledge of it. And as I came with the camera, I saw that she was not saying no" (Museum of Modern Art). The subsequent photograph is one of the most intimate portraits of the superstar and one of Avedon's most iconic images. Quarto. Photographic illustrations throughout.
