A third, expanded edition was then printed, but due to circumstances was never publicly distributed. Now, Michael Jang himself has taken his cache of these and produced a Deluxe edition of this gem that contains a SIGNED 7 x 5" black and white photograph from the series along with a facsimile of his 1973 CalArts "report card" from instructor Ben Lifson. "College" delightfully documents the camaraderie, creativity, boredom, and debauchery of Art School life. In addition to In addition to fly-on-the-wall shots on campus, "College" features such luminaries as David Bowie, Jimi Hendrix, Ravi Shankar, David Hasselhoff, Michael Douglas, Steve Allen, John Baldessari, and many more. A brand new, most handsome example of this heretofore unavailable rarity additionally SIGNED by the photographer in ink. Inventory Number: E000MJC

“Who is Michael Jang? I don’t know if he’s a hipster or a nerd, a conceptual genius or instinctual savant. All I know is that he takes some of the best pictures I’ve ever seen.” - Alec Soth

"Michael Jang spent nearly four decades working as a successful commercial portrait photographer whilst quietly assembling a vast archive of thousands of remarkable images and authoring several now-iconic series: "The Jangs" (1973), "Beverly Hilton" (1973), "San Francisco" (1973–1987), "Summer Weather"  (1983), "College" (1972–1973), "Punks & Poets" (1978–1980), and "Garage Band" (2001). For forty years, Jang revealed nothing of that vast archive until 2001 when he submitted a number of photographs for consideration to The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Once "discovered", his work has steadily gained acclaim and over the past fifteen years those images have found a wider audience in a series of museum and galley exhibitions and hard to find books. The artist’s first major monograph - "Who Is Michael Jang?" - is published by Atelier Éditions in conjunction with his first major retrospective exhibition, "Michael Jang's California". Curated by Michael Jang's long-time collaborator and the book's essayist, SFMoMA curator emerita of photography, Sandra S. Phillips, the show will be on view September 27th, 2019 to January 18th, 2020 at The McEvoy Foundation for the Arts in San Francisco."

"California Romantica" features the most important, yet rarely seen, residential exemplars of the California Mission and Spanish Colonial styles, by such noted architects as George Washington Smith, Wallace Neff, Richard Requa, Lilian Rice, and Paul R. Williams, among others. From whitewashed stucco walls and cloistered patios to tile roofs and sumptuous gardens, each house shown is a rare masterpiece, splendidly appointed with authentic Monterey furniture, California tile, and Navajo rugs. Among the magnificent seaside estates, canyon villas, and courtyard bungalows shown is Diane Keaton’s former home in Beverly Hills, which she thoughtfully restored with noted designer Stephen Shadley, and for which she has been recognized as a committed preservationist. She brings her cinematic eye, a keen sense of natural drama, and a profound appreciation for the nuances of shadow and light to the elucidation of these buildings, through the selection of specially commissioned photography. Authoritative text by D. J. Waldie lucidly explicates the architecture and provides an intimate tour of a historic and distinctly Californian lifestyle. A brand new, most handsome example of the 2019 first printing of the slightly smaller-format re-edition of this long-unavailable classic additionally SIGNED by Diane Keaton in ink.
