Photography Monograph. Fine/Fine. 80pp, 38 color illustrations. Designed by Fabio Cutro and Dana Faconti. "Richard Misrach, one of today's contemporary masters, is renowned for his carefully considered, beautifully rendered epic works. "On the Beach" - a lavishly produced, oversized monograph, is the long-awaited publication of this spectacular series. The photographer hones in on our delicate relationship to the sea, using a gorgeous, slowly shifting color palette gleaned from changes in depth and tide; abstract patterns of waves and rippling water, and beaches both empty and cluttered. He carefully balances the minutiae of human gesture against the massive scale of the sea. In some images, a lone figure floats in a liquid field of brilliant turquoise - or in others, lies beached and partially buried. The details in the images are frequently ambiguous - are the figures relaxed or drained of life? Cavorting in the surf or panicking in the riptide? The balance is a fragile one between control and surrender to the elements. As Misrach says, the work is "suffused with a sense of the sublime, but it also begins to expose our vulnerability and fragility as human beings."

(MORGIN, KRISTEN). Morgin, Kristen & Marc Selwyn. Beverly Hills, CA: Marc Selwyn Fine Art, 2022. First Edition. 10 x 8 1/2'. Printed Boards with Illustrated Pastedown. Artist Monograph. As New/No Jacket - As Issued. 120pp, profusely illustrated in color. 978-0-578-33196-6

"Kristen Morgin lives and works in Los Angeles. Her work, which is formed with a mixture of clay, glue, cement and other media, comes from a ceramic background but goes far beyond traditional uses of the medium. Her sculptures have an affinity to the constructions of George Herms, Edward Kienholz, and Michael McMillen, but evoke relics of contemporary culture that may have been buried and unearthed at a later date. Toys, books, comics and other objects are rendered true to scale in unfired clay and recall the artist’s childhood. Corroding surfaces evoke mortality, decay and the passage of time. Eccentric narratives and playful juxtapositions come together to form new objects with unexpected connotations."

A brand new, pristine example of this newly published, elegantly designed comprehensive hardbound monograph featuring a lengthy transcribed interview with the artist by her gallerist, Marc Selwyn, that is additionally SIGNED BY THE ARTIST WITH A SMALL DRAWING AT THE REAR COLOPHON.
