Graham Paul New Europe

Graham, Paul: Paul Graham: Photographs. Fotografien. 1981 - 2006. ; sig.; 1. Ed.
Steidl. Steidlmack. 2009. First edition, first printing. Signed by Paul Graham. Signatures by this artist are very scarce! Mint, new, unread; only opened once for signature. Wonderful work overview of one of the best photographers our time. Paul Graham is famous for his fantastic photobooks like "New Europe" (Martin Parr , The Photobook , vol 2, page 71). Hardcover in linen without jacket (as issued). 225 x 280 mm. 376 pages, 250 colour plates. Essays by David Chandler, Michael Almereyda and Russell Ferguson. Text in english. Paul Graham is one of that remarkable generation of photographers born in the 1950's who have come to dominate art photography today and who dedicated themselves to photography at a time when it was unwelcome in the art world. This book is the long awaited survey of 25 years of his photography, 1981-2006, to coincide with a large scale touring European museum exhibition. Graham was the first photographer to unite contemporary colour photography with the classic genre of social documentary. His colour work in the early and mid-1980s had a transformative effect on the black and white tradition that had dominated British photography to that point. Since this ground breaking early work, and what sets Graham apart from his peers of that time, is that rather than rest on such achievements, he has continued to radically explore the medium for the next two decades, showing a profound commitment to expanding photography's artistic space, whilst remaining faithful to that core locus where the documentary and artistic aspects of photography coalesce. At a time when art photography is increasingly staged, or holds the world at a conceptualized distant view, Paul Graham's work distinguishes itself by retaining a firm and full commitment to life as it unfolds; to an understanding that at its core photography begins with an unblinking engagement with the world. Embracing this crucial axiom of photography, Graham's work of the past 25 years has been vital in reinvigorating the core of photographic practice, both by broadening it's visual language, and essentially, by questioning our notions of what such photography could say, be, or look like. Paul Graham was born in England and currently lives in New York. He has been the recipient of many awards including a Eugene Smith Memorial Fellowship. His work has been exhibited extensively, including the Museum of Modern Art, New York and Tate Gallery, London. Published books include Troubled Land, New Europe, Empty Heaven, End of an Age and American Night.***************Steidl. Steidlmack. 2009. Erstausgabe. Signiert von Paul Graham!

Paul Graham setzt sich dem Leben aus, das er mit seiner Kamera einfangen will. Um es zu dokumentieren, belebt er das Medium immer wieder neu und schreckt nicht davor zurück, Genregrenzen zu sprengen: Graham arbeitete als erster britischer Vertreter der sozialdokumentarischen Fotografie mit Farbe. Mit Serien wie A1 - The Great North Road (1981-1982) und Beyond Caring (1984 - 1985) vertrieb er die Schwarzweiß-Fotografie von ihrer dominierenden Stellung.
