(CLARK, LARRY). Clark Larry. London: LCB (Larry Clark Books in association with Thea Westreich), 1993. First Edition. 4to. Cloth in Pictorial Dust Jacket. Photography Monograph. Fine/Fine. np, profusely illustrated in color and b&w. Designed by Hans Werner Holzwarth and Design pur. Text in English. Published in Switzerland 1995, Larry Clark's "The Perfect Childhood" caused quite a stir when the attorneys for its American distributor upon seeing their first copy refused to let it be imported due to the prevailing moral climate. The successor to "Tulsa" and "Teenage Lust", it continues the notorious photographer/director's fascination with the American teen through wall-to-wall photos, collages, video stills and re-photographed press clippings - most of which are previously unpublished. Highly voyeuristic in nature, there is no shortage here of sex, violence, skateboarders and Matt Dillon! A brand new, most handsome example of the uncommon true first edition (cited on page 245 of Alessandro Bertolotti's "Books of Nudes") issued by Larry Clark Books in association with Thea Westreich. PLEASE NOTE: Due to the explicit nature of some of the content here, you must be at least eighteen years of age to order this item. 0-302-00644-3 Inventory Number: 020754

(DIVINE, JEFF). Divine, Jeff. Foreword by William Finnegan. Tom Adler & Evan Backes, Editors. Santa Barbara, CA: T. Adler Books, 2020. First Edition. Oblong 4to. Pictorial Boards in Plastic Dust Jacket. Photography Monograph. As New/As New. "If you were there, even just for some of it - Hawaii, California, surfing, the ’70s - the memories and stories will flow freely from these photographs. Jeff Divine was there for all of it, and these images have been culled from the renowned photographer's enormous personal archive. Divine was shooting for "Surfer Magazine", the monthly bible of the scene. His photos from this archive show the pre-commercialized era in surfing when the hippie influence still held sway. Surfers had their own slang-infused language and were deep into a world of Mother Ocean, wilderness, and a culture that mainstream society spurned. Surfboards were handmade in family garages, often made for a specific kind of wave or speed, for paddling, ease of turning, and featured all kinds of psychedelic designs. Some were even hollowed out to smuggle hash from Morocco. The images collected here were taken throughout California on the coastlines at Baja, Dana Point, Laguna Beach, La Jolla, Malibu, San Clemente, and Oahu give a vivid image of this close-knit culture and the incredible athletic feats of its heroes and heroines. In addition, this colorful, insider portrait of seventies surf culture features a foreword by Pulitzer Prize-winning author William Finnegan.

Raised in La Jolla, California, Jeff Divine started photographing the surfing world in 1966. He held jobs as photo editor for 35 years with "Surfer" Magazine" and "Surfer’s Journal". His works have been displayed worldwide in museums and galleries, as well as in books, magazines and media. In 2019 he was inducted into the Huntington Beach Surfing Walk of Fame for his contribution to surf culture in a career lasting fifty years.

A brand new, most handsome example of this latest volume of surfing perfection from T. Adler Books additionally BOLDLY SIGNED "Jeff Divine" on the title page.

(DIVINE, JEFF). Divine, Jeff. Introduction by Scott Hulet. Santa Barbara, CA: T. Adler Books, 2011. First Edition. Oblong 4to. Pictorial Boards in Jacket. Photography Monograph. As New/As New. 96pp, 94 color illustrations. Designed by Tom Adler. "On the heels of 2006's hugely popular "Surfing Photographs from the Seventies", T. Adler Books now releases the companion volume, "Surfing Photographs from the Eighties Taken by Jeff Divine". The 1980s were a tumultuous period in surf history, as the "everything's groovy" communalism of the previous decade was blown apart into splinter groups. Professionals, rebels, punks, and world travelers all banged the drum for their personal vision of surfing. The result was loud, vivid, and drenched in fluorescence and neon. Photographer Jeff Divine was on the case, documenting the changes from surfing's twin power poles: Southern California and the north shore of Oahu. Divine's access to these scenes, earned from fifteen years on the sand and in the water, infuse this volume with authenticity as an insider look into the period's most definitive moments". A brand new, most handsome example of the 2011 first edition in the publisher's unprinted frosted plastic jacket additionally BOLDLY INSCRIBED by Jeff Divine" in black marker. 1-935202-44-8 Inventory Number: 024710

Hugh Holland: “That shot was one of several I did on the street, at Balboa Island, in the summer of 1975, just as I was beginning the Skate series. I was shooting some kids that were hot-dogging on the street on the sidelines of a small skate contest. I had no idea who they were. A few years later, someone saw them and asked if I knew who that kid was. I said no. He said it was Danny Kwock, who went on in the eighties to be a top surfer in the Newport area, and surfed for Quicksilver. Now he is the president of Quicksilver entertainment. He is a very cool guy.”

np (96pp), profusely illustrated in color and b&w. Designed by Ed Templeton. "The Swimming Pool" is a new photographic essay from California-based street photographer Deanna Templeton. The series was born after an impromptu nude swimming-pool shoot of husband and artist Ed Templeton, which spurred an eight-year journey in the study of light, expression and the enigma of water. Shooting entirely on color, black and white, and Polaroid film, Templeton sent friends into the pool to be photographed in their truest form. Unlike her street photography, in which subjects were often strangers, Templeton found that creating these portraits required more intimacy and connection - a feeling that is apparent throughout every image in the series. As Ed Templeton writes in his afterword to this volume, "the nude swimmer is floating in a void of quiet solitude, the gentle pressure of being underwater enclosing her form like a baby in a womb and nothing exists outside of this world. A lone figure amidst a sea of blues and greys and frenetic sunlight performing a solitary dance for the photographer above, choosing movements and directions, twisting and swooping, contorting and expelling breaths painting a picture of form and light together". A brand new, pristine example additionally BOLDLY SIGNED by Deanna Templeton.

Photographs that never quite fit into their current projects or are waiting to become the narrative of their next book or show, but that are too good to be left unused.

This box set is those photographs, finally liberated from that file labeled "Orphans & Misfits". "Loose Shingles" displays alternate photos and outtakes from Ed Templeton's many projects over the last few decades, including "Teenage Smokers", "Teenage Kissers", and other editorial and street shots.

Templeton selected for this volume photographs that do not fit into his usual manner of organizing by theme or subject. In past publications he has arranged his work in straightforward groupings such as Teenage Kissers, Teenage Smokers, or photographs shot from a moving. Wayward Cognitions represents the in-between moments that arise when shooting in the streets without theme or subject. "It's about looking, people watching, finding pleasure in the visual vignettes we glimpse each day," says Templeton. When those moments are removed from the context in which they were shot, dynamic stories can be told or imagined in book form. The photographs here were printed by Templeton in his darkroom; he then created the layout and design himself, building the book from scratch in his home studio". A brand new, most handsome example of the second edition in brown boards of this awesome survey published by Thomas Campbell's Um Yeah Arts additionally SIGNED by Ed Templeton.
