This independent photography school taught limited-enrolment classes by its co-founders Tomatsu Shomei Moriyama Daido Araki Nobuyushi Hosoe Eikoh Fukase Masahisa and Yokosuka Noriaki. Each photographer taught a workshop for a period of one year with a strong emphasis on one-to-one teacher-student relationships. During the first year Nakahira Takuma and Narahara Ikko also taught two additional two-month courses. The journal actively explored new trends in photography through essays and criticism by members of the group and others. Issue 4 was edited by Araki and was based on the simple theme of 'making photography' for this issue he contributed an essay on how to shoot good portraits. Issue 6 was the most controversial issue published in January 1976 which announced 'We Will Sell Photographs: An Exhibition of Photographs Selected by Twelve Photographers' which was issued to accompany an exhibition in February 1976 as an attempt to present photographs as commodities. At that time in Japan as elsewhere sales of photographs as works of art were virtually non-existent and there was some resistance to the idea most notably from Norio Asaki in Asahi Camera.<br /><br />The Workshop Photography School lasted from April 1974 until March 1976 but one last journal issue was issued in July 1976. This eighth issue featured 'A Roundtable Discussion with Names Withdrawn: Bashing Photography Magazines' in which the Workshop teachers set about challenging the conventional views of photography put forward by Asahi Camera and other photography magazines as well as criticising popular photographers including Kitai Kazuo and Shinoyama Kishin.<br /><br />The school continued briefly as Araki's Private Photo School until 1977 when Araki offered another one-year workshop. The Workshop Photography School paved the way for several independent galleries and organisations that followed such as Image Shop Camp Photo Gallery Prism and Photo Gallery Put.<br /> For a New World to Come 354-358.

386688NY: Glitterati. 1st. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. Hardcover in a bright dust jacket. After becoming captivated by the beauty and originality of a group of nineteenth-century photographs Robert Flynn Johnson has uncovered more than two hundred vintage images of women who lived and worked at a brothel in Reading Pennsylvania circa 1892 and showcases them here for the first time for a wider public. Working Girls details the private creative archive of commercial photographer William Goldman whose imagery paints a complete picture of the environments that these women inhabited - from inside the brothel posing artistically for the camera to their off-duty routines such as reading smoking and bathing. Taken two decades before the famous E. J. Bellocq photographs of prostitutes in Storyville New Orleans circa 1913 Johnson chronicles the aesthetic historical and sociological importance of Goldman's artwork in the history of photography referencing them alongside paintings and photographs by such artists as Degas Eakins and Monsieur X. With essays that provide an insightful historical overview of Goldman's work in context of the period in which they were taken by feminist and cultural luminaries including Dita Von Teese Ruth Rosen and Dennita Sewell this extraordinary collection provides a personal visual record of lives of these women while also offering a deeper understanding of the 'working girls' that existed in that era.

2005360909NY: Aperture 2005. reprint. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. Hardcover 400 pages 350 duotone images. More than those of any other living photographer Sebastião Salgado's images of the world's poor stand in tribute to the human condition. His transforming photographs bestow dignity on the most isolated and neglected from famine-stricken refugees in the Sahel to the indigenous peoples of South America. "Workers" is a global epic that transcends mere imagery to become an affirmation of the enduring spirit of working women and men. The book is an archaeological exploration of the activities that have defined labor from the Stone Age through the Industrial Age to the present. Divided into six categories -- "Agriculture" "Food" "Mining" "Industry" "Oil" and "Construction" -- the book unearths layers of visual information to reveal the ceaseless human activity at the core of modern civilization. Extended captions provide a historical and factual framework for the images. "Salgado unveils the pain the beauty and the brutality of the world of work on which everything rests" wrote Arthur Miller of this photobook classic upon its original publication in 1993. "This is a collection of deep devotion and impressive skill." An elegy for the passing of traditional methods of labor and production "Workers" delivers a message of endurance and hope.

19016Women's Mobility in Suffrage Times Photo Archive. Collection of 4 photographs of women on horses and bicycles; sizes range from 3" x 4" to 8" x 6.5" including a cabinet card with a photographer's mat measuring 8" x 10." In the age of women's suffrage means of travel and mobility were synonymous with social autonomy and self-sufficiency. Because it was considered progressive and unconventional suffragettes often rode horses to demonstrations. Similarly bicycles became a symbol of freedom and independence; early feminists Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony famously declared that "woman is riding to suffrage on the bicycle." Their efforts were well worth it; today women make up the majority of licensed drivers in America. The feminists pictured here sport expressions of pride and determination as if they already know they are making history. Very good condition. unknown
1900200911900. Telephone operator photo archive circa 1900 to 1958 documents women's labor within telephone exchange systems showing how urban communications depended on trained female operators seated at switchboards connecting calls handling information and maintaining the human infrastructure behind early and mid twentieth century telephone service. The material documents telephone communication labor through photographs of switchboard rooms operators wearing headsets plug boards supervisory presence and grouped clerical activity revealing how connection work operated in practice before automated dialing fully displaced manual exchange work. The archive supports research into women's wage labor communications history gendered office work New York telephone service and the disciplined workplace culture that positioned young women as the public voice and operational center of the telephone network.<br /> The archive consists of six black-and-white photographs including five silver gelatin photographs and one early albumen photograph with images measuring from approximately 3.5 x 4.25 inches to 7 x 9 inches. The date range appears to extend from the early twentieth century to 1958 based on the later dated images. Several photographs show women seated in tight rows facing large switchboards wearing heavy headsets with horn mouthpieces and working among dense arrangements of cords and plugs. The early albumen photograph shows a row of women facing the switchboards while a female supervisor watches over the room indicating both the gendered hierarchy and procedural discipline of the exchange floor. One image shows an operator turning toward the camera with a plug in hand smiling while gesturing toward the board. Four smaller photographs dated 1958 show teams of women moving between boards and a small group with paperwork behind the operating area; pencil inscriptions on the versos identify the location as New York.<br /> The photographs are valuable because they make visible the labor system behind telephone service: rows of operators standardized equipment supervisors paperwork and the coordinated manual routing of calls. They also record the gendered character of communications work in which women's voices posture speed and manner were made part of the service itself. Light handling wear minor edge wear and expected age toning; images remain crisp with equipment and personnel details clearly visible; overall very good. Strong women's labor and communications history archive documenting the human operation of telephone exchange systems across the first half of the twentieth century and into the postwar period. unknown
