Dali's Mustache
by Salvador Dali
With 101 Life magazine covers to his credit, Philippe Halsman (1906-1979) was one of the leading portrait photographers of his time. In addition to his distinguished career in photojournalism, Halsman was one of the great pioneers of experimental photography, motivated by a profound desire to push this youngest of art forms toward new frontiers by using innovative and unorthodox photographic techniques. One of Halsman's favorite subjects was Salvador Dali, the glittering and controversial painter and theorist with whom the photographer shared a unique friendship and extraordinary professional collaboration that spanned over thirty years. Whenever Dali imagined a photograph so strange that its production seemed impossible, Halsman tried to find the solution, and invariably succeeded. As Halsman explains in his postface, Dali's Mustache is the fruit of this marriage of the minds. The jointly conceived and seemingly nonsensical questions and answers reveal the gleeful humor and assumed cynicism for which Dali is famous, while the marvelous and inspired images of Dali's mustache brilliantly display Halsman's consumate skill and extraordinary inventiveness as a photographer. This combination of wit, absurdity, and the off-handedly profound is irresistible and has contributed to the enduring fascination inspired by this unique photographic interview, which has become a cult classic and valuable collector's item since its original publication in 1954. The present volume faithfully reproduces the first edition and will introduce a new generation to the irreverent humor and imaginative genius of two great artists.
Marcel Duchamp
by Jennifer Gough-Cooper
Marcel Duchamp A Life in Pictures Jennifer Gough-Cooper and Jacques Caumont This little introduction to the life and works of Marcel Duchamp is modelled on a children's book, with 12 delicious dead-pan full-page color illustrations of events in Duchamp's life, and an equally tongue-in-cheek, and entirely accurate, biography. This is its first appearance in English. A must for Duchamp devotees!
The Peripheral Space of Photography
by Murat Nemet-Nejat
This new short work explores what separates photography from other artistic media. Nemet-Nejet argues that photographic seeing is not a plastic experience, but a meditative one, built around a relationship between image and words. Through a critique of photographs in the Metropolitan Museum of Art exhibition of 1993, he show repeatedly how the focal points in potographs are often their mistakes (blurs, over or under exposures), and, spatially, are in their peripheries. A profound study of photography.
