(HIDO, TODD). Hido, Todd & A.M. Homes. Paso Robles, CA: Nazraeli Press, 2019. First Edition Thus 1 /4000. Small Folio. Cloth in Pictorial Dust Jacket. Photography Monograph. As New/As New.

“Todd Hido’s large color photographs of suburbia are lonely, forlorn, mysterious… and strangely comforting. Hido photographs the interior rooms of repossessed tract homes, and the outsides of similar houses at night whose habitation is suggested by the glow of a television set or unseen overhead bulb. Seldom does the similar evoke such melancholy. Yet rather than passing judgment on his anonymous subjects, Hido manages to turn the banal into something beautiful, imbuing his prints of interiors with soft pastels, and allowing the exteriors to glow in the cool evening air.” — From Nazraeli's description of the first printing of House Hunting, announced in 2000. We are excited to announce a newly remastered edition of Todd Hido’s iconic and highly sought-after first monograph, House Hunting. To celebrate the upcoming 20th anniversary of this important book – certainly one of the most influential and oft-cited photography monographs of our time – Nazraeli has collaborated closely with the artist to achieve a new impression of the highest possible fidelity. Printed on heavy weight matte art paper, using cutting-edge technologies in both the pre-press and production phases, this new edition of House Hunting stays true to the original design and format while delivering even more accurate color rendition and nuances in tone and saturation. It will be a welcome addition to collections lacking access to the very scarce original printings; and to those fortunate enough to own a copy of the original edition, it further illuminates the images themselves that first catapulted the artist and his first monograph to fame. Todd Hido’s photographs have been the subject of solo exhibitions at the Cleveland Museum of Art, the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art, Kansas City, and most recently at the Musée des Beaux-Arts, Le Locle, Switzerland. Other major institutions that have exhibited Hido’s work include the Carnegie Museum of Art, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington D.C.; Museum of Contemporary Photography, Chicago; Miami Art Museum, Florida; Netherland Architecture Institute, Rotterdam; Palazzo Ducale, Genova, Italy; Samsung Museum of Modern Art in Korea; and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. His work was recently on view in the 49th edition of Les Recontres d’Arles, France. Work by Hido is held in public and private collections including the Guggenheim Museum, New York; Los Angeles County Museum of Art; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; the Art Institute of Chicago; the Smithsonian; and Fotomuseum Winterthur."

As New/No Jacket - As Issued. 104pp, 48 color illustrations. Designed by Bob Awfuldish and Todd Hido. "For over two decades, Todd Hido has crafted narratives through loose and mysterious suburban scenes, desolate landscapes, and stylized portraits. He has traversed North America capturing places that feel at once familiar and unknown; welcoming and unsettling. Underscoring the influences of Nordic mythology and specifically the idea of Fimbulwinter, which translates into the ‘endless winter’, Hido’s new monograph, "Bright Black World" alludes to and provides form for this notion of an apocalyptic, never-ending winter. Exploring the dark terrain of the Northern European landscape and regions as far as the North Sea of Japan enchanted Hido, calling him back on several occasions. This presents the artist’s first significant foray extensively photographing territory outside of the United States, chronicling a decidedly new psychological geography. Opening with a text by Alexander Nemerov, "Bright Black World" contains forty-eight plates printed in an oversized format, featuring two vertical gatefolds and a fold-out poster measuring some 25 by 40 inches.

Hugh Holland: “That shot was one of several I did on the street, at Balboa Island, in the summer of 1975, just as I was beginning the Skate series. I was shooting some kids that were hot-dogging on the street on the sidelines of a small skate contest. I had no idea who they were. A few years later, someone saw them and asked if I knew who that kid was. I said no. He said it was Danny Kwock, who went on in the eighties to be a top surfer in the Newport area, and surfed for Quicksilver. Now he is the president of Quicksilver entertainment.

In the ensuing years, the site grew from an exercise in visual note-taking into a uniquely hysterical embodiment of both Hsu’s keen artistic sense and his razor-sharp wit. Documenting his journeys through the high and low trappings of our culture, Hsu’s work captures everything from bootleg t-shirts and bathroom stall graffiti to unexpected truths and the occasional startling moment of humanity. An unerringly creative and endlessly clever chronicle of the deep ironies of our modern world, "The Beautiful Flower Is the World" collects the best of Hsu’s blog photography into a compelling and immersive whole."

EPI-HAB Inc. was founded in 1958 as a non-profit organization with the mission to provide meaningful employment to individuals with epilepsy by performing valued work for customers. On February 19th 1977, the Los Angeles chapter of the organization produced a posthumous, celebrity-studded "tribute Ball for Howard Hughes" at The Century Plaza Hotel to celebrate the life and accomplishments of Howard Hughes. "EPI-HAB LA Salutes Howard Hughes (!905-1976)" is the souvenir program that was published a few months after the actual event. It features dozens of tribute ads (most from the Hughes Corporation, its Hotels, and various subsidiaries), scores of historical Hughes photos and press clippings (none from later than 1952), and most interestingly, nearly one hundred photographs of the civic movers and shakers that organized and attended the event. These included John Wayne, Jimmy Stewart, Jayne Russell. Virginia Mayo, Mel Torme, Lorne Greene, Ann Miller, Cyd Charisse, Carlotta Monti, Mrs. Harry (Sybil) Brand, Mrs. Jackie (Barbara) Cooper, Mrs. Jack (Emily) LaLanne, Mrs. Mervyn (Kitty) LeRoy, Mrs. Lloyd (Mell) Nolan, Mrs. David (Barbara) Simmons, Mrs. Rudy (Eleanor) Vallee, Mrs. Del (Toni) Webb, and many, many more. A bright, most handsome example of this exceedingly uncommon item stated as having been limited to five hundred unnumbered copies which were seemingly never meaningfully distributed that is neither in the holdings of the Margaret Herrick Library of The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences nor does it appear in OCLC WorldCat.

The first monograph on Los Angeles legend Luchita Hurtado, whose colorful, surrealist paintings are now garnering recognition after decades on the fringes

At 98 years old, Luchita Hurtado (born 1929) is finally gaining mainstream recognition for the bright, geometric patterns and the surrealist nature scenes of her virbant paintings, but the Venezuela-born, California-based artist is no stranger to the art world. Though she once rubbed elbows with the likes of Frida Kahlo and Marcel Duchamp early on in her career, Hurtado now has the spotlight to herself, with solo exhibitions in Los Angeles and London, and this very first comprehensive, fully illustrated monograph detailing her artistic process and the prolific output of work from throughout her career.

In addition to reproductions of Hurtado's strikingly contemporary drawings and paintings, Luchita Hurtado: I Live I Die I Will Be Reborn also includes a series of vignettes penned by Hurtado's son, the artist Matt Mullican, as well as an interview between the artist and Hans Ulrich Obrist. A brand new example of this now out of print gem! 978-3960985938 Inventory Number: I00200814

(JAFA, ARTHUR) Edited by Lærke Rydal Jørgensen, Mathias Ussing Seeberg. Foreword by Poul Erik Tøjner. Introduction by Mathias Ussing Seeberg. Text by Nahum Chandler, Jared Sexton, NourbeSe Philip. Conversations with Arthur Jafa, Jacob Holdt, Faith Icecold. Humlebaek, DENMARK: Louisiana Museum Of Modern Art, I00210605, 2021. First Edition. 12 x 10", 4to. Paperback. Artist Monograph. New/No Jacket - As Issued. 204pp, 100 color and 60 b&w illustrations. Text in English. "Though he has worked in film and music for decades, American video artist Arthur Jafa only garnered acclaim in the art world in 2016 for his video work "Love is the Message, the Message is Death." Composed of found images and videos, his oeuvre revolves around Black American culture, the history of slavery, and ongoing structural and physical violence against Black Americans. As Jafa put it in his 2003 text “My Black Death”: “The central conundrum of black being (the double bind of our ontological existence) lies in the fact that common misery both defines and limits who we are. Such that our efforts to eliminate those forces which constrain also function to dissipate much which gives us our specificity, our uniqueness, our flavor by destroying the binds that define we will cease to be, but this is the good death (boa morte) to be embraced.” This essential overview presents Jafa’s best-known works, such as "Love is the Message, the Message is Death" and its 2018 follow-up piece "The White Album", alongside never-before-seen projects and essays by notable scholars."
