Without DJ, as issued. Published on the occasion of the AIPAD Photography Show held in New York in 2012. Presents "Take Me Home: Photographs From The Heartland To The Coasts". Rich, beautiful, and representative selections from the three major schools of American photography, identified as such by geographic location: The Photo League (New York) , the Institute of Design (Chicago) , and the West Coast School (California) . In sum, THE photographic achievement of the American century, in a "time capsule" catalog that showcases now-iconic work by such New York figures as Lewis Hine, Morris Engel, and Weegee; Chicago legends Harry Callahan, Yasuhiro Ishimoto, Kenneth Josephson, Ray K. Metzker, Aaron Siskind, and Charles Swedlund; and California "dreamers" such as Ansel Adams, Wynn Bullock, Imogen Cunningham, and Edward Weston. Intentionally or not, their various imagery does vividly evoke a specific place in which the photograph was either taken or made. An absolute "must-have" title for art photography collectors. This title is a contemporary art photography classic. As far as we know, this is the only copy of the Exhibition Catalog available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. A rare copy thus. Lavishly illustrated with tonally rich reproductions from vintage photographs. Some of the greatest photographers of the 20th century. A fine copy.
