    VIGGO MORTENSEN: SKOVBO - FIRST EDITION

    (MORTENSEN, VIGGO). Mortensen, Viggo. Santa Monica, CA & Reykjavik, ICELAND: Perceval Press & The Reykjavik Museum of Photography, 2008. First Edition. 4to. Boards with Pastedown. Photography Monograph. As New/No Jacket - As Issued. 118pp, profusely illustrated in color and b&w. Text in English. Designed by Michele Perez. "This book functions as a partial companion to the photography exhibit entitled "Skovbo" (which roughly translates from Danish as "home in the forest") by Viggo Mortensen at the Reykjavik Museum of Photography (Ljosmyndasafn Reykjavikur), opening on 31st May, 2008 and running until 31st August, 2008. In this new collection of images and poems are trees and the memory of trees, ghosts, words, nights, days, lives, deaths, and safe haven for them all in the place where "...the twigs become branches, / And the mist becomes make-believe... (Osip Emilyevich Mandelstam)". Dedicated to Howard Zinn and Dennis Kucinich, this substantial hardbound publication from actor/artist/musician/poet/activist Viggo Mortensen combines his recent images of foliage and greenery with the occasional prose-poem to create one of the loveliest surveys of his photography to date. A brand new, pristine example of the now unavailable first hardbound printing. 0-9763009-7-4 Inventory Number: 015447
