200115593Ostfildern-ruit Germany: Hatje Cantz Publishers 2001. First Edition. First Printing. Hardcover. As New/No Dust Jacket As Issued. Ostfildern-ruit Germany: Hatje Cantz Publishers 2001. Hardcover. As New/None As Issued. First Edition/First Printing. 128 pages. Retrospective collection of photographs. Now considered a contemporary art photography classic. Limited Slipcased Edition of 50 numbered and signed copies. Precedes and should not be confused with the regular trade edition. They have the same ISBN. The Limited Edition is now rare. A brilliant production by Ken Schles: Oversize-volume format. Black cloth boards with black titles embossed on the spine as issued. Photographs and Manifesto/Essay by Ken Schles. The title comes from the lyrics of Bob Dylan's "Tombstone Blues". Text fragments by Franz Kafka Ralph Ellison Walter Lippmann and Italo Calvino. Original 8 X 10 inch photographic print matted framed and laid into its own black cloth folder. Matching black cloth slipcase. Printed on glossy stock paper in Germany to the highest standards. Without DJ as issued. Presents in its Limited Edition format Ken Schles' "The Geometry of Innocence". His "philosophical" collection. There is something disturbing and uncompromising about each image by itself and in the context of the relentless whole. Schles' point is that we should not be distracted but instead be completely immersed. If "Invisible City" is inward-looking "The Geometry of Innocence" looks outward at the larger world and sees both good and bad cause for hope and reason for despair. Still the prevailing sentiment is dark and melancholy and as such is reminiscent of his debut collection. Schles also has a didactic purpose articulated in his Manifesto/Essay which is "must-reading" for anyone uncritically enamored of photography which includes many photographers and critics. While his essay is critical about photography Schles is obviously not against photography. Indeed the latter stance would be self-defeating because even the most subversive "anti-photographic" photograph can be easily coopted by the system to reinforce unjust social structures and feed a corrupt mass culture. Instead he is for a photography that somehow retains its subversive existential power and empowers people given the fact that "we are formed by a flawed society. Yet however boldly or tenuously we engage our lives we love we hate we struggle" Ken Schles. An absolute "must-have" title for Ken Schles collectors. This is a copy of the Limited Slipcased Edition of 50 copies indicated/numbered as such on the Back Copyright Page. It comes with an 8 X 10 inch original photographic print that is very prominently and beautifully numbered titled and signed in pencil on verso by the photographer: "Ken Schles The End of the World From The Geometry of Innocence 43/50". This title is a contemporary art photography classic. This is one of few copies of the Limited Edition still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean crisp and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws which are publisher's flaws rather than caused by handling or use. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare signed copy thus. 106 color 87 duotone plates 1 original print. One of the most brilliant photographers of our time. A fine collectible copy. SEE ALSO OTHER KEN SCHLES TITLES IN OUR CATALOG.
