Es erscheint in einer Auflage von 3 000 Exemplaren und wird herausgegeben vom Fotomuseum Winterthur in Zusammenarbeit mit Cornerhouse Publications, Manchester." "NEW EUROPE konfrontiert den euro-utopischen Traum vom vereinten Kontinent mit der buntschreienden, belanglosen Alltäglichkeit heute und mit den Schatten ihrer Vergangenheit, mit den Diktaturen Francos, Hitlers und Mussolinis, dem Holocaust und dem nordirischen Konflikt. Paul Grahams Fotografien vergegenwärtigen Geschichte dort, wo sie aus der Tiefe der Zeit an die Oberfläche stößt, ob wir nun darüber stolpern oder verächtlich darauf spucken. Seine Fotografien bilden zusammen ein visuelles Gedicht, das über die soziale und psychische Landschaft in Europa räsoniert."

    Gr.-4°. [120] S. mit 42 teils doppelblattgr. Farbtafeln. Illustr. OKart. Erste Ausgabe. - Von P. Graham auf dem Titel signiert. - Eines von 3000 Exemplaren. - "New Europe confronts the Euro-utopian dream of a united continent with the screaming, uneventful banality of today and with the shadows of its past. Paul Graham s color photographs visualize history and show its effects in everyday life, even when it is unrecognized or contested and sometimes even trivialized until it ends up as a child s toy. We encounter history when, from out of the depths of time, it hits the surface, whether we trip over its gravestone, pass it by unawares, or spit on it in contempt. Interspersed are images of people from today, pictures of immersion, escaping, into music, alcohol, cigarettes, or drug addiction, into the ecstatic kick. These are pictures of a comprehensive commercialization. Together with the signs of history, a physically experienceable portrait is formed of contemporary European reality, a social and psychological landscape, whose traces can be equally felt in things, gestures, and the indifferent faces - surrounded by the laughter of empty perspectives" (Urs Stahel). - Sehr gutes Exemplar. Sprache: deutsch.

    Softcover, 160 pages, English, 290 x 250 mm, book in fine state, . ISBN 9780714835501. The ecstatic face of a disco dancer in Berlin; a rural panorama in Derry, where a country road has been made into a Pollock-like canvas of red, white and blue; an ashtray, framed by a lacy spray of blood in a Barcelona toilet. Paul Graham uses and abuses classic genres of photography - the portrait, the landscape, the still life - to map a cultural topography. His jewel-like colours and unsettling compositions reveal how social relations and political trauma are inscribed in the everyday. This book brings together for the first time all of Graham's successive series, from his journey along the A1 in Britain to intimate studies of Japan. Graham's work has been celebrated in exhibitions around the world, including The Museum of Modern Art, New York, and Tate Britain, London. Art historian Andrew Wilson has written extensively on contemporary European art and is the author of Gustav Metzger: Damaged Nature, Auto-Destructive Art. He charts the development of Graham's most significant series as defined by the journeys the artist has taken, weaving relations between an emerging aesthetic and the specifics of time and place. In the Interview, Paul Graham speaks with British artist Gillian Wearing, internationally renowned for her photographs and videos that explore the imaginary worlds of ordinary people. Focusing on a triptych from the New Europe series is the celebrated American writer Carol Squiers, Senior Editor at American Photo magazine and editor of The Critical Image: Essays on Contemporary Photography. In juxtaposition with this work, Graham has chosen texts by Japanese authors Kazuo Ishiguro and Haruki Murakami. A series of notes by the artist and an interview with Lewis Baltz provide further insight. 1020 g.

Sill originally shrink-wrapped in publisher`s plastic foil; only opened once for signature. Paperback. 180 x 260 mm. 88 pages. 30 color plates. Perfect condition! Signed by the artist! Collector` copy! Paul Graham is famous for his fantastic photobooks like "New Europe" (Martin Parr , The Photobook , vol 2, page 71). "During the terrorist attacks on Paris in November 2015, photographer Paul Graham took refuge in an apartment in the city with his partner and young child. In response to the suffocating tension on the city`s streets, he made this series. Looking at the images you would never know of the traumatic events unfolding outside, but suffusing the photographs is an inscrutable longing for the safe, the everyday, the known. Paul Graham was born in 1956 in Stafford, England. He is has been the recipient of numerous awards and fellowships including the Deutsche Börse Photography Prize, a Guggenheim Fellowship, the Hasselblad Award and the Paris Photo-Aperture Foundation Photo Book Awards prize for best photographic book of the past 15 years. He has exhibited at Tate Gallery, MoMA, Whitney Museum of American Art, Deichtorhallen and Fotomuseum Winterthur amongst many others." (from the publisher)***************Steidl. Steidlmack. 2009.

Mint, new, unread, only opened once for signature. Paul Graham, one of the best photographers of our time, is famous for fantastic photobooks like "New Europe" (Martin Parr , The Photobook , vol 2, page 71). Hardcover (as issued). 240 x 320 mm. 64 pages. 30 color photos. Perfect condition! Signed and dated by the artist: "Paul Graham. 2011." Collector`s copy! Graham became enamored with the material of his craft while preparing for his 2009 retrospective. Besides scanning his images he also scanned the blank film ends and unexposed frames from each body of work to gather an alternative survey, a `negative retrospective` of his practice. The grains, color dyes and black and white crystals make images of beauty, simplicity and scientific record. Part wistful homage, part farewell, part visual wonder, Films is Paul Graham`s eulogy to the physical material of photography. 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.***************Mack, London. 2011. Erstausgabe. Originalausgabe.

Hardcover with dustjacket. 245 x 325 mm. 104 pages. Text in english. Perfect condition! Collector`s copy! Paul Graham is one of the best photobook makers ever (Beyond Caring, Troubled Land, A1.Great North Road. A Shimmer of Possibility, New Europe). In End of an Age, British photographer Paul Graham captures the threshold moments that mark the ending of adolescence, the small slice of time between youthful indulgence and the emerging awareness of adult responsibilities. His photographs resonate between these two poles: between full-on consciousness and escape: between staring the world in the eye or shying away; between seeing the world with shocking clarity and the desire to hide oneself from that reality: turn away, get drunk, close your eyes, get stoned. It is a situation that each of knows and remembers all too well, a traumatic time. And it is often the threshold of a profound psychological transformation - a chartless sea in which one might successfully navigate, get becalmed, or simply drown. Paul Graham`s pictures consider this point in one`s life, and reflect upon its trauma, uncertainty and pain. The photographs alternate between ultra-sharp direct flash images where every detail is minutely recorded, and the opposite extreme, with loose available-light photographs, saturated with color, blurred and sometimes poorly focused. First and foremost, these compelling color images are portraits in the fullest sense - images that seek to reflect on the inner self through our material presence.***************Scalo, Zurich. 1999.

    Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Edward M. Graham, Nina Oding and Paul J. J. Welfens Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union have achieved sustained economic growth in first half of the new decade in the 2V^ century. EU ac cession countries which have joined the EU have benefited mainly from high capital inflows, a reduced risk premium - with shadow effects of this already occurring in the years before explicit membership - and growing trade. While system transformation has undermined trade between Eastern Europe and Russia for several years there are medium prospects for grow ing trade in the whole of Europe. Russia's case, however, is different from the EU accession countries as a major driving force of economic dynamics is the oil and gas sector which has considerable backward and forward linkages. At the same time this sector apparently is politically quite sensi tive. The Transatlantic Transformation and Economic Development Re search Group has organized several workshops within a major interna tional research project. The project is devoted to analyzing the internatio nalization of the Russian economy and the associated changes in major policy fields. This book contains the revised analytical papers from the St. Petersburg conference in 2003 when the city celebrated its 300 year anniversary. We are very grateful to the Leontief Center for excellent organization of the conference. The paper by Paul J. J.

    Copenhague, K. Schønberg, 1878. 8vo. Uncut and unopened in the original printed, illustrated wrappers. A very fine copy of this delicate publication. 72 pp. Many text-illustrations throughout. Very rare first edition of the first work to describe the seminal invention that is the phonic wheel, invented and patented by Paul la Cour - "the Danish Edison" - in late 1877 and publicized for the first time in 1878 in French (as it is here) and Danish simultaneously. The phonic wheel, a synchronous motor operated by pulsating current, constituted a fundamental improvement upon the telegraph-system, as it enabled the simultaneous sending of up to 100 telegrams at a time (in comparison, Edison, who worked on solving the same problem at the same time, was only able to invent a device allowing for the sending of 4 telegrams at a time). This seminal invention revolutionized the telegraph-system. It was also of great importance to the early development of the television, as it constituted an important feature in proposals for telectroscopes and in some electromechanical television systems. The phonic wheel was the first invention to make use of the principle that we now call "time division multiplexing". "It was no coincidence that Poul la Cour got the byname "The Danish Edison". Apart from his job as deputy director at the Danish Meteorological Institute, he worked with many inventions e.g. the telegraph system which at the time was undergoing a rapid development. At that stage, only one message could be sent at the time and often the line was busy. This was a great disadvantage especially within the field of meteorology where fast communication over long distances was important.Poul la Cour worked on a method to let several telegraphists use the same wire simultaneously and in 1874 he was awarded the gold medal from the Danish Scientific Society for his work on the phonic telegraph system. By using this system each telegraphist could send the Morse code through an electric tuning fork and thereby use his own frequency on the same wire. In 1878, he developed the method into the phonic wheel motor that made it possible to send up to 100 telegrams at the same time. He was in fierce competition with the famous American inventor Thomas A. Edison who only managed to send 4 telegrams simultaneously. The many inventions quickly gave Poul la Cour the byname "The Danish Edison"." (From the web-site of the Paul La Cour Museum)While working on developing his tuning fork-telegraph, la Cour got the idea of a phonic wheel. He allowed for the oscillations of the tuning fork to control the phonic wheel, giving it a constant and extremely precise circulation. The phonic wheel was a toothed iron wheel" the teeth passed by a electro-magnet, which again was controlled by the electric oscillations from a tuning fork. If one of the teeth of the wheel is right in front of the magnetic pole, it will in turn be attracted to and let go by the magnet. The invention did cause la Cour problems in the beginning, but when he came up with the idea of placing a capsule with quicksilver upon the wheel, it became more stabile. The toothed wheel was now so precise that it was possible to divide the telegraph-current into little bites, so several senders/receivers were able to share the same wire by taking turns sending. Thus, the phonic wheel was the first invention to make use of the principle that we now call "time division multiplexing", i.e. that cables can be used for many purposes at the same time. After having finished his studies in physics and meteorology in Copenhagen in 1869, Poul la Cour travelled in Europe to study practical meteorology. Having spent a month with the Dutch meteorologist de Buijs Ballot, he became convinced of the importance of setting up the Danish Meteorological Institute according to the principles of de Buijs Ballot, which was set up in 1872, with la Cour as Deputy Director.At the time, telegraphy was the most important technological prerequisite for modern meteorology, and this soon became la Cour's main interest. In June 1874, the year in which Edison invented his quadruplex telegraphy, la Cour invented a telegraphic device based on tuning forks. He patented his invention in London on September 2, 1874, but in the United States Alexander Graham Bell, Elisha Gray, and others had been working along similar lines, which resulted in protests against his American patent applications. Not wanting to spend the large amount of money necessary to pay the American lawyers, he gave up his claim in America, and this invention was credited to Elisha Gray. La Cour, however, maintained that Gray had been working on the invention of the telephone, and only had changed his invention at the instant la Cour's American application was published. After the disappointment on the American market, la Cour came up with the seminal invention that was the phonic wheel, and this time there were no problems with the patent. The invention was produced in August 1875, patented in 1877, and the details were published in the book "The Phonic Wheel" in 1878, in a Danish and a French edition. At that time the invention was adopted by the American company The Delany Synchronous multiple Telegraph, and a new fight of priority arose. In 1886 the Franklin Institute awarded la Cour the John Scott Legacy Medal for the phonic wheel and at the same time presented Delany with the Elliott Cresson Medal for the synchronism, a decision la Cour protested against.The phonic wheel was used on telegraph lines on the East Coast of America, and in the London Post Office. The most modern application was in the mechanical "television" of Paul G. Nipkow (1884).Shiers: Early Television. A Bibliographic Guide to 1940: No. 102.
