The Papageorge is on my wish list, dare I say he is, my opinion only, a better writer than a photographer ? (and he is not a bad photographer )

Anybody know when "Arlequin" by Toshio Enomoto will be released?

That one is a definite buy for me.

That´s a great book!
(A similar one that I liked very much is
"The people, yes!" by Jerome Liebling.)

Core Curriculum by Tod Papageorge, who introduces his work by declaring himself "on the relatively short list of people who might have something useful to say" about photography. Had I read this in a bookstore, I might have dismissed the book as the futile exercise by a pompous pedant of the Ivy League. Having read a few of his essays, however, I can confirm that despite his juvenile penchant for the clumsy pun, Papageorge has a few intelligent things to say about the art of photography where "... there is a failure to understand how much richer in surprise and creative possibility the world is for photographers in comparison to their imagination."

Just when Colin/Aviotus bemoans the sudden move in prices of Leica cameras (and a lot of other quality cameras and lenses) the book market has now erupted.... groan. Good luck with any ideas of getting your hands on copies that are signed firsts! The book dealers will be on this like 'a buncha dogs on a bone'

Thanks for the heads-up Michael, you are murder on my wallet!

[Michael Markey]

Ah revenge
I soon as I saw it I thought Peter would be interested in this.
Maybe its a south Manchester thing

[peter_n]

Maybe so, it's the same deal at Amazon here so I've pre-ordered it too. The only problem is that now we have to wait until November for it...

[Michael Markey]

OK..... its showing me 27Oct.
I also have Shelby Lee Adams "Salt &Truth" on pre order.
Due about the same time.
Looks like November could be expensive

Definitely a good book. Somewhat scarce and expensive though, so "worth getting" depends, I guess. It is a posthumously published book of the pictures he took in (obviously) 1964, while driving around the US on a Guggenheim grant. Some of his best known pictures are included, but most of the images have not been published elsewhere.

Cheers,
Gary

Indeed, I had it on loan from the university's library once. To get the essentials of his "style" it is very good. However, I wish to get "the man in the crowd" for a not that insane price once.

[RFluhver]

I have "The Man in the Crowd" already and now I can get "1964". It's a bit expensive, though at roughly US$470.

[bogelgelbo]

Just got East to East by Klavdij Sluban, very moody and personal work.

[Richard G]

John Szarkowski "The Face of Minnesota" a sesquicentenary reissue. A beautiful book, very fine photographs, poetic words and a wonderful technical note on his exposure technique at the end.
