1 Clark, Larry. Teenage lust. (An autobiography). Second edition. New York, Self-publishing (1987). 4° (29,5 x 23 cm.). [143] S. mit 92 Duotone-Tafeln. Illustr. Orig.-Kartonumschlag.

Auer 648. Bertolotti 260. Koetzle, Fotografen A-Z 75. Vgl. Parr/Badger II, 260 (Tulsa). – Erschien zuerst 1983. – Von Larry Clark signiert. – „Wenn Danny Lyon mit dem sozialdokumentarischen The Bikeriders die Tür für einen Spalt weit auf die widerständige Jugend aufstieß, so öffnete Larry Clark sie weit mit seinem Buch Tulsa, 1971. Lyon hatte jugendliche Rebellion auf einem akzeptablen Level gezeigt, Kids, die am Wochenende Rabatz machten, aber in der Regel motagmorgens (wenn auch ziemlich mitgenommen) wieder zur Arbeit erschienen. Clark, auf der anderen Seite, zeigte jugendliche Entfremdung als Vollzeitleben, mit geringer oder gar keiner Möglichkeit zur Rückkehr in die Gesellschaft. Seine Dokumentation von Kommunen in Tulsa, wo schlimmer Drogenkonsum häufiger war als gelegentlicher Sex, erweiterte die Grenzen des akzeptablen Themas für Fotografen und machte Tulsa zu einem der meistdiskutierten und bedeutendsten Bücher des Jahrzehnts“ (Gerry Badger in Koetzle). – Gelenke und Kanten etwas berieben, gutes Exemplar.
First published in 1983. – Signed by Larry Clark. – „If Danny Lyon’s social documentary *The Bikeriders* cracked the door open a crack to reveal rebellious youth, Larry Clark threw it wide open with his book *Tulsa, 1971*. Lyon had depicted youthful rebellion at an acceptable level: kids who caused a ruckus at the weekend but usually turned up for work again on Monday morning (albeit looking rather rough). Clark, on the other hand, portrayed youthful alienation as a full-time existence, with little or no chance of returning to society. His documentation of communes in Tulsa, where heavy drug use was more common than casual sex, pushed the boundaries of what was considered an acceptable subject for photographers and made Tulsa one of the most talked-about and significant books of the decade” (Gerry Badger in Koetzle). – „In his photography book Teenage Lust (1983), subtitle An Autobiography, Larry Clark uses a sharp, immediate style that is both lyrical and sensual to recount moments in his sex life between 1960 and 1970 in a hippie community in New Mexico, with friends, one-night-stands, drug-addicted prostitutes, and dealers. In the second part of the book he shows photographs of the young male prostitutes on Forty-second Street in New York; he was fascinated by these teenage bodies“ (A. Bertolotti). – Joints and edges slightly worn, a good copy.

1 Davidson, Bruce. Subway. Afterword by Henry Geldzahler. New York, Aperture (1986). Quer-4° (25 x 29,5 cm.). [8] Bl., 60 Farbtafeln, [2] Bl. Orig.-Leinenband mit farbig illustr. Schutzumschlag. (An aperture book).

Koetzle, Fotografen A-Z 88. – Erste Ausgabe; von B. Davidson auf dem Titelblatt signiert. – „Viel beachteter (Foto)-Essay über New Yorker U-Bahn“ (H.-M. Koetzle). – „Bruce Davidsons Sympathie gilt vielen Menschen; seine typischen Motive sind die Benachteiligten, die Erniedrigten, die Verwundeten, wie sie in stolzer Hinnahme der Umstände leben. Die schwarze Frau, die in der hell erleuchteten Türe ihrer zusammengezimmerten, geschmückten Hütte ihr Baby auf dem Arm hält, der Vater und seine Söhne regungslos verharrend inmitten der Tristesse von Jersey Meadows, die Straßengang in Brooklyn, die sich aus Mangel an sozialen Vorbildern trotzig einen einheitlichen Stil erschafft – wir betreten Welten, die uns zuvor verschlossen waren, Welten, die zugänglich durch Bruce Davidsons Talent, Akzeptanz zu finden und zugleich selbst ein kaum relevanter Faktor in den Situationen zu bleiben, die er aufbaut und einfängt“ (H. Geldzahler in Koetzle). – Sehr gutes Exemplar.
First edition; signed by B. Davidson on the title page. – ‘Highly acclaimed (photo) essay on the New York subway’ (H.-M. Koetzle). – „Bruce Davidson’s sympathy lies with many people; his typical subjects are the disadvantaged, the downtrodden, the wounded, as they live in proud acceptance of their circumstances. The black woman holding her baby in her arms in the brightly lit doorway of her makeshift, decorated shack; the father and his sons standing motionless amidst the bleakness of Jersey Meadows; the street gang in Brooklyn defiantly creating a uniform style for themselves due to a lack of social role models – we enter worlds that were previously closed to us, worlds made accessible by Bruce Davidson’s talent for finding acceptance whilst remaining himself a barely relevant factor in the situations he constructs and captures” (H. Geldzahler in Koetzle). – Very good copy.

1 Pratchett, Terry and Neil Gaiman. Good omens. The nice and accurate prophecies of Agnes Nutter, witch. Illustrated with line drawings and colour plates by Paul Kidby. London, Dunmanifestin (2019). Gr.-4° (31 x 23,7 cm.). 278 S. mit 20 Farbtafeln und Illustrationen von Paul Kidby. Illustr. Orig.-Pappband in Buch-Kassette in Schlangenleder-Optik.

Eines von 1655 num. Exemplaren; von Paul Kidby signiert. – One of 1655 limited copies. Stunning collectors’ hardback in a snakeskin effect solander box, with metallic red page edges, 20 colour illustrations with additional pencil illustrations. Numbered tipped-in sheet signed by Paul Kidby. – „Working with Terry was a life-enriching experience for me, both professionally and personally. He had so much to say and do, books to write, orang-utans to save, campaigns to wage. His creative energy was irrepressible, always questing and dynamic – brimming over with ideas and plots that needed pinning down. Never one to sit back, Terry had so much that he wanted to achieve, and in the final years, as he was all too aware, there just wasn’t enough time. If I could speak to Terry again, I’d thank him for writing the books that are my greatest source of creative inspiration, and for the belief and encouragement he showed by giving me the fantastic opportunity to illustrate his writing. I’d thank him for the laughs and friendship we shared too. I remember snippets of our conversations about folklore, astronomy, gardening and recipes for nettle soup. We shared an affinity for the chalk downlands where we both lived for a time, the landscape seemed to exert a creative energy for us both. My dog and I tramped many of the ancient drove roads that traverse the grassy backbone of the downs, I knew well the wide skies, the far-reaching views and the leaping hare that he described. Blue butterflies, skylarks, soaring buzzards and harebells in the close-cropped turf were all observed on my walks, and many a flint and fossil weighted my pockets – including the shepherd’s crown“ (Paul Kidby).

1 Rolling Stones – Wyman, Bill und Richard Havers. Bill Wymans Rolling Stones Story. (Übersetzung: Markus Diedrich, Hans Freundl, Werner Horwath, Christian Kennerknecht und Inga-Brita Thiele. Redaktion: Petra Kirchmann und Janette Schroeder). Starnberg, Dorling Kindersley (2002). Gr.-4°. 512 S. mit über 3000 meist farb. Abb. Farbig illustrierter Orig.-Pappband mit farbig illustr. Orig.-Schutzumschlag.

Erste deutsche Ausgabe. – Von Bill Wyman signiert. – „Keith Richards von den Rolling Stones prophezeite einst, dass man die „größte Band der Welt“ nur im Sarg verlassen könne. Doch Bill Wyman, der Bassist und stille Mann im Hintergrund, strafte ihn Anfang der 90er-Jahre Lügen. Da beschloss Wyman, sich nicht mehr das exzessive Leben eines Rock-Musikers anzutun. Er lebt heute bei bester Gesundheit in London, kümmert sich um seine Familie und seine Sammlungen. Seit jeher hat er gesammelt. „Im Krieg lebte ich in London bei meiner Großmutter“, erzählte er kürzlich in München bei einer Pressekonferenz. „Sie besaß großartige Sammlungen von Briefmarken und Münzen und gab sie an mich weiter. Ich hebe alles auf. Für später, nicht für mich, für meine Kinder. Sie werden das brauchen, wenn ich nicht mehr bin. Mein Sohn betreut bereits die Website meiner Sammlung.“ Nun hat er mit Bill Wymans Rolling Stones Story einen wunderbaren und liebevoll gestalteten Bildband über seine Schätze veröffentlicht. Alles, ob Fotos, Instrumente, Eintrittskarten, Autogramme, Fan-Post, Tour-Plakate, Schlüsselanhänger oder Zeitungsausschnitte, hat Bill Wyman dazu aus seinem 35 Jahre langen Leben als Rolling Stone zusammengetragen. Und er lädt ein zu einer sagenhaften Zeitreise von den ersten harten Tagen als Rhythm- und Blues-Combo bis hin zum Gipfel der Popularität. Unterlegt ist das Ganze mit hunderten von Kommentaren von Experten, Freunden, Fans und Familienangehörigen. Nichts wird verklärt, nichts ausgelassen, ob Drogenexzesse, Frauengeschichten oder Steuervergehen — Wymans offene, mit sich selbst ehrliche Art sowie sein Humor lassen dieses Buch zu einer aufregenden (Pop-)Kulturgeschichte der letzten vier Jahrzehnte werden. Ein Muss nicht nur für Rolling-Stones-Fans!“ (Teresa Pieschacón Raphael). – Sehr gutes Exemplar. – First German edition; signed by Bill Wyman.

1 Macé, Gérard. Éthiopie. Le livre et l’ombrelle. (Avec une citation de Werner Herzog). Cognac, Le Temps qu’il fait (2006). Gr.-8° (24 x 16,5 cm.). 107, (4) S. mit 52 Duotone-Tafeln und 1 signierten Orig.-Photographie (Silbergelatine, 22 x 15 cm.). Orig.-Kartonumschlag mit illustr. Schutzumschlag.

Eines von 30 Exemplaren „h.c.“ mit signiertem Original-Abzug (Umschlag-Foto „Ethiopie, le livre et l’ombrelle“) und signierter eigenhändiger Widmung von G. Macé „Pour Esther Woerdehoff …“.L’un des 30 exemplaires « h.c. » avec tirage original signé (photo de couverture « Ethiopie, le livre et l’ombrelle ») et dédicace manuscrite signée par G. Macé « Pour Esther Woerdehoff … ». – „Avec Le livre et l’ombrelle (…), nous partons du côté de Lalibela et de la fascinante Eglise éthiopienne, plus ancienne que Rome et Byzance, puisque c’est la deuxième Eglise nationale, précédée de très peu par l’Arménie, au début du quatrième siècle. Et son histoire autonome, sa théologie particulière sont attestées par les manuscrits en guèze, lus inlassablement par un clergé qui vit encore au milieu d’un peuple illettré. L’Ethiopie, pays hautement civilisé, c’est le squelette de Lucy, mais aussi un territoire de déserts et de hautes montagnes qui ensorcelle le voyageur par la force de ses rites et des regards.“ (Fabien Ribery). – „Gérard Macé est né en 1946 a Paris. Aux éditions Gallimard (collection “Le Chemin”, puis collection “Le Promeneur”), il a publie depuis 1974 des proses narratives et poétiques, comme Bois dormant, Le dernier des Egyptiens, la série intitulee Colportage, ou plus récemment Illusions sur mesure. À l’image poétique, il ajoute ’image photographique depuis 1997, comme en témoignent La photographie sans appareil et Mirages et solitiudes, parus aux éditiomns Le temps qu’il fait“ (Editeur). – „Gérard Macé, 1946 in Paris geboren, veröffentlichte ab 1974 zahlreiche Werke, die zwischen Dichtung und Essay stehen. Gegenstand seiner Bücher ist oft die Sprache, sei es die literarische Sprache, sei es die zu entziffernde Sprache der Hieroglyphen (»Le Dernier des Égyptiens«, 1988) oder das Chinesische und seine Kultur. Seit 1997 arbeitet er auch als Fotograf. Macé erhielt 1980 den Prix Femina Vacaresco, 2002 den Prix Roger Caillois und 2008 den Grand Prix de Poésie der Académie française für sein dichterisches Lebenswerk“ (Hanser Verlag).

1 Puttelaar, Carla van de. (Galateas). Tekst / text Rudy Kousbroek. Amsterdam, Basalt Publishers & Van Zoetendaal Collections (2004). 4°. 79, (1) S. mit 34 Farbtafeln. Farbig illustr. Orig.-Pappband.

First edition. – Signed by Carla van de Puttelaar. – „The photography of Carla van de Puttelaar allows the eye to touch the skin on many levels. Through her lens, she makes the viewer aware of the sensitivity and the sensuality of skin, which she examines in detail, without ever forgetting to be aware of the importance of the shapes of the structure that the skin envelopes. The female body has long been her main subject, but in recent years she has also successfully begun to examine the skin and texture of flowers, particularly those on the brink of fading. In them she has discovered the same fascinating sensitivity and sensuality as in her female models. Natural light is one of Carla’s most important tools and assets. She allows it to play around with her subjects and then catches it at its most seductive moment and from that moment on, it is captured for posterity“ (carlavandeputtelaar(dot)com). – In very good condition.

1 Shames, Stephen. The Black Panthers. Foreword by Bobby Seale. Essay by Charles E. Jones. New York, Aperture Foundation (2006). 4°. 151, (1) S. mit illustr. Titel und 72 Duotone-Tafeln. Illustr. Orig.-Pappband.

First edition. – Signed by S. Shames. – „In 1966, as the largely nonviolent Civil Rights movement swept through America, Huey P. Newton and Bobby Seale founded the legendary Black Panther Party in Oakland, California. Revered by some and vilified by others, the party burst onto the scene with a militant vision for social change and the empowerment of African-Americans. Its methods were so controversial and polarizing that in 1968, FBI head J. Edgar Hoover described the organization as the country’s greatest threat to internal security. During the height of the movement, from 1967 to 1973, photographer Stephen Shames had unprecedented access to the organization. He captured not only its public face—street demonstrations, protests and militant armed posturing—but also life behind the scenes, from private Party meetings to Bobby Seale at work on his Oakland mayoral campaign. Shames was prolific and his archive of Panther images is the largest in the world, presenting an uncommonly nuanced portrait of this dynamic social movement. Released on the occasion of the Party’s fortieth anniversary, this illuminating publication gathers an astonishing collection of never-before-published images, offering an electrifying visual history. Panther newspapers, posters and other ephemera help convey the ethos of the Panthers and of a transformative period of social upheaval for the whole nation“ (Aperture). – Fine copy.

Boca Raton, Florida, Iris Publications (1989). Gr.-8° (23 x 23 cm.). 95 S. mit 40 Duotone-Tafeln und einigen Abbildungen im Text. Illustr. Orig.-Kartonumschlag.

First edition. Inscribed by P. Vermes „To Jean and Robert Graves 42 Wedding Anniversary September 11. 1990 Philippe Vermes Lacornia 9. 5. 90“. – „Anyone seeking to find out what became of Robert Frank’s black bikers or Danny Lyon’s young white working-class cyclists – a disciple of Frank who later photographed these marginal heroes – can turn to the work of Philippe Vermès. Perhaps they will find them there. Like the itinerant portraitist of small towns of yesteryear, Philippe Vermès grants them the right to be seen without judgement, accepting them as they are. The result is portraits brimming with information, teeming with rich observational details that draw on two traditions: photography and painting. A classically trained painter who became a photographer, Philippe Vermès is the logical custodian of these two related approaches“ (A. D. Coleman). – Philippe Vermès born in 1942, is a French artist photographer who lives and works in Paris. A graduate of the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Paris, the photographer and portraitist transcribes with the eye of a painter in love with black & white portraiture.

1 Goldin, Nan. The ballad of sexual dependency. Edited with Marvin Heiferman, Mark Holborn and Suzanne Fletcher. New York,, Aperture (1989). Quer-Gr.-8° (23 x 25,5 cm.).. 144 p. with 120 coloured plates. Colour illustrated Paperback.

Auer 667. Koetzle 173 f. Roth, The Book of 101 Books 252 f. Roth, The Open Book 332 f. Parr/Badger II, 39. – First paperback edition. The first hardcover edition appeared 1986. – Inscribed and signed by N. Goldin „For Johan x amsterdam. June 7. 97 Nan Goldin″. – „Nan Goldin might be considered a female equivalent of Larry Clark, photography’s resident bohemian. Her book The Ballad of Sexual Dependency is comparable with Clark’s notorious Teenage Lust (19823), in that it is diaristic and hedonistic – a soap opera of sexual mores mediated through the colour-snapshot aesthetic developed by William Eggleston. But whereas Clark gleefully courts the sleazy and blatantly depicts the sexual act, Goldinm is concerned neither with the sleazy for its own sake nor primarily with sex. Her brief is more complex, and a good deal more ambitious than Clark’s. She examines the limitations of sanctioned gender roles and the conflicting, often violent nature of sexual relationships amongst her friends and lovers. Her view is profoundly pessimistic, yet she also admits the illogical pull of the biological imperative in her introduction to the book: „I often fear that men and women are irrevocably strangers to each other, irreconcilably unsuited, almost as if they were from different planets. But there is an intense need for coupling in spite of it all. Even if relationships are destructive, people cling together“.“ (Martin Parr). – Very good copy.

(Album Petite Planète, Vol. 1).

Auer 365. The Open Book 165 f. Parr/Badger I, 243. Roth, The Book of 801 Books 140 ff. – First printing of the first edition. – Boldly dedicated and signed by W. Klein to Belgian photographer Gerald Dauphin „To Gerald, / HAPPY NEW / YORK!* / William Klein / *YORK″. – „By virtue of its preface, written by Jack Kerouac, Robert Frank’s The Americans is usually regarded as the epitome of the Beat photobook. But William Klein’s magnum opus, Life is good for you and good in New York Trance witness Reveals: Trance Witness Revels, a book with Beat mantra for a title, surely has the edge in this regard. This is partly because it was the earlier model, partly because it is less political and more exuberant, and impotantly, because its conception is so complete – photographs, layout, design, topography, ‚found‘ ephemera coalescing into what is in effect one of the first great ‚Pop‘ books. … Klein’s masterpiece reminds us that much great, serious art is often about play, archieved simply by experimenting with the possibilities of the material. Forget trance and witness – the revels are the thing“ (Parr/Badger). – „With no interest from American publishers, Klein went back to Paris and set to work on a graphic design that was as aggressive and idiosyncratic as its photos. „I saw the book as a tabloid gone berserk, gross, over-inked, brutal layout, bull-horn headlines,“ he wrote in its radically revised 1995 edition. „This is what New York deserved and would get.“ Published in France, Italy, and England, but not in America, Life is good for you and good in New York was a sensation“ (A. Roth). – Dust jacket with inconspicuous restored loss at the spine, very good copy.

Erste Ausgabe der seltenen ersten Veröffentlichung des bedeutenden dänischen Fotografen. Von Krass Clement signiert (″Paris 14 XI 2025“). – „Born in Copenhagen in 1946, Krass Clement is an autodidact photographer. Graduated as a film director from the Danish Film School in 1973, though continued with photography when it became evident that his future was not to be in film. A photographer since his early youth, Krass published his first book, Skygger af Øjeblikke (Shadows of Moments) in 1978. His photographic work emerges from two traditions: The Scandinavian melancholy on the one hand and the ‚flaneur‘ tradition from the Parisian school on the other. Starting out in black and white, Krass has persisted in developing and modernizing his artistic expression so that his production today also includes work in colour. … In his photography Krass is more concerned with capturing a state of mind than with situations. They are less documentary depictions than subjective moods somewhere between spectator and reality. Insisting on an artistic integrity, Krass Clement has created a strong personal body of work with the photo book as his favourite medium“ (krassclementdotcom). – Einband etwas gebräunt, sehr gutes Exemplar.

Auer 566. Koetzle, Fotografen A-Z 314. – Seltene erste Ausgabe der ersten Veröffentlichung des wichtigen schwedischen Fotografen A. Petersen (geb. 1944), „international bekannt durch seine (formal an Frank bzw. Davidson geschulten) freien Bildessays über Außenseiter der Gesellschaft“ (H.-M. Koetzle). – Von A. Petersen auf dem Titelblatt signiert. – „Anders Petersen ist einer der herausragenden Vertreter der schwedischen Fotoszene und hat nachfolgende Generationen wie kaum ein anderer beeinflusst. Sein fotografisches Interesse gilt insbesondere dem Milieu der gesellschaftlichen Außenseiter. Seine Bilder entstehen in Hafenbars, Gefängnissen oder Zirkuswagen. […] Ende der 60er-Jahre entstand seine Serie über das legendäre „Café Lehmitz“, eine Hamburger Kneipe, die hauptsächlich von Prostituierten und Homosexuellen besucht wurde. Die Fotografien strömen neben einer unglaublichen Kraft große Liebe und Verbundenheit mit den Menschen aus. Da Petersen einige Jahre zuvor nach Hamburg gekommen war, um seine Deutschkenntnisse zu verbessern, waren ihm viele der Personen schon vertraut. „Man muss direkt auf die Menschen zugehen können und sich seiner sehr sicher sein, um die Wirklichkeit sichtbar werden zu lassen“, sagt er über sein Vorgehen, „dann können mit etwas Glück Bilder entstehen, die auch für andere etwas ausdrücken“.“ (W. Vollmer in Koetzle). – Kapital geringfügig bestoßen, sehr gutes sauberes Exemplar.
Rare first edition of the first publication by the important Swedish photographer A. Petersen (born 1944), ‘internationally known for his (formally trained by Frank and Davidson) free photo essays on social outsiders’ (H.-M. Koetzle). – Signed by A. Petersen on the title page. – „Anders Petersen is one of the outstanding representatives of the Swedish photography scene and has influenced subsequent generations like no other. His photographic interest lies particularly in the milieu of social outsiders. His pictures are taken in harbour bars, prisons or circus wagons. […] At the end of the 1960s, he created his series on the legendary ‘Café Lehmitz’, a Hamburg pub frequented mainly by prostitutes and homosexuals. In addition to their incredible power, the photographs exude great love and affection for the people. As Petersen had come to Hamburg a few years earlier to improve his German, he was already familiar with many of the people. ‘You have to be able to approach people directly and be very confident in order to make reality visible,’ he says of his approach, ‘then, with a little luck, you can create images that also express something to others.’ (W. Vollmer in Koetzle). – Capital slightly bumped, very good clean copy.

1 Dreyfuss – Seldes, Gilbert (Indroduction). Henry Dreyfuss. 10 Years of Industrial Design 1929 – 1939. New York, Self-published (1939). 4°. [32] 16 pages with numerous illustrations. Original cloth binding with gold-embossed title on the cover.

First and only edition. – With handwritten dedication and drawing (female nude) by Henry Dreyfuss. – „10 YEARS ago Henry Dreyfuss began designing for industry. The following pages-a small portion of the designs he has made – will suggest the connection between his work and the progress of industrial design as a whole.“ – Henry Dreyfuss (1904-1972) „is known for designing the Western Electric Model 500 telephone, the Westclox Big Ben alarm clock, and the Honeywell T87 Round Thermostat. Dreyfuss, a native of Brooklyn, New York City, is one of the celebrity industrial designers of the 1930s and 1940s who pioneered his field. Dreyfuss dramatically improved the look, feel, and usability of dozens of consumer products. Sometimes compared to Raymond Loewy and other contemporaries, Dreyfuss was much more than a stylist; he applied common sense and a scientific approach to design problems, making products more pleasing to the eye and hand, safer to use, and more efficient to manufacture and repair. His work helped popularize the role of the industrial designer while also contributing significant advances to the fields of ergonomics, anthropometrics and human factors.“ (Wikipedia). – Fronts slightly brown-stained, otherwise very well preserved.

1 Klein, William New York. Life is good for you and good in New York Trance witness Reveals: Trance Witness Revels. London, Photography Magazine (1956). 4°. 192 p. with 188 Pictures on plates and Booklet (16 p., „Delay may be serious now free…“). Original cloth binding with color illustrated dust jacket. (Album Petite Planète, Vol. 1).

Auer 365. The Open Book 165 f. Parr/Badger I, 243. Roth, The Book of 801 Books 140 ff. – First edition in England (“Imprimé en Suisse”). The first printing of the first edition was published by Editions du Seul in Paris. – Dedicated and signed by W. Klein “To Paul & his sister Bailly / Happy New York, William Klein”. – „By virtue of its preface, written by Jack Kerouac, Robert Frank’s The Americans is usually regarded as the epitome of the Beat photobook. But William Klein’s magnum opus, Life is good for you and good in New York Trance witness Reveals: Trance Witness Revels, a book with Beat mantra for a title, surely has the edge in this regard. This is partly because it was the earlier model, partly because it is less political and more exuberant, and impotantly, because its conception is so complete – photographs, layout, design, topography, ‚found‘ ephemera coalescing into what is in effect one of the first great ‚Pop‘ books. … Klein’s masterpiece reminds us that much great, serious art is often about play, archieved simply by experimenting with the possibilities of the material. Forget trance and witness – the revels are the thing“ (Parr/Badger). – „With no interest from American publishers, Klein went back to Paris and set to work on a graphic design that was as aggressive and idiosyncratic as its photos. „I saw the book as a tabloid gone berserk, gross, over-inked, brutal layout, bull-horn headlines,“ he wrote in its radically revised 1995 edition. „This is what New York deserved and would get.“ Published in France, Italy, and England, but not in America, Life is good for you and good in New York was a sensation“ (A. Roth). – Dust jacket with inconspicuous restored loss at the spine, very good copy.
