Sobre este item
Culperer, VA: A Community Press Publication/ Horizon Press, 1965. First edition. Hardcover. vg- to near fine. Quarto. Unpaginated. [100 pages]. Original photo-illustrated dust-jacket over grey cloth with black lettering on spine. Pictorial title page. In 1961, Dave Heath assembled the b/w photographs that he had been making throughout the fifties into a poetic book. The result is a tragic, comic and lyrical "Dialogue With Solitude." "It begins with a photographic prologue that sets the theme: the solitude of the individual. Photographs of lovers pursue the theme, suggesting that even this relationship may not be enough to alter the essential loneliness of the soul. A series of photographs taken in Korea shows the frustration, hardship and ennui of Army life. A group of Negro portraits, and another group exploring the bewilderments of youth, further reveal the undeniable and haunting aspects of alienation. The stunning photographs are arranged in ten sections and are designed to be viewed in sequence. They follow a progression from weariness and despair, to anger, agony, and in the last few photographs, to the joy and jubilation of shared experience. Each section is complemented by a quotation from diverse writers, among them Yeats, Rilke, Hazlitt and James Baldwin. Between words and pictures the common denominator is always a common humanity" (from the publishers).
