About This Item
St. Leonards, NSW Australia: Sue Hines Book, Allen & Unwin, 1999. A very attractive copy of a book tough-to-find in the 1999 true First Edition that was published by Sue Hines Book, Allen & Unwin. Fine condition in a Near Fine dust jacket. No chips or tears. Bright, clean, square, tight, and unmarked. Sharp corners. Oversize Hardcover. 10" wide by 12.5" tall. This 1999 first edition should not be confused with later less pleasing reprints that were published in smaller format and with a different Dust Jacket photo. No owner's name or bookplate. Not a remainder. Beautiful photo-essay celebrating dance and ballet in Australia. Brief introduction by the photograher. The stunning photos in this volume capture the extraordinary beauty of the dancers' bodies, their freedom, fitness, elegance, athleticism, and artistry. From the Dust Jacket: "Tutu is a celebration of the grace and beauty of the human body: in flight, in repose and, at times, pared back to its raw and most basic elements... Tutu presents the entire company of The Australian Ballet, unbound by the rigors and restraint of formal performance and choreography..." . First Printing of the First Edition. Oversize Hardcover. Fine condition/Near Fine dust jacket. 160pp.
