About the Item

Tina Barney Players (Signed and dated by Tina Barney), 2010 Hardback monograph with dust jacket (Hand signed and dated by Tina Barney) Signed and dated 3/9/2011 by Tina Barney 9 × 12 × 3/4 inches Signed and dated 3/9/2011 by Tina Barney on the title page. Publisher's blurb: Tina Barney's earliest photographs were candid snapshots of her well-to-do relatives at home in and around New York, images that revealed both the familial relationships and material wealth she was accustomed to. During the 1980s, she became one of the first photographers to work in the "directional style" when she forfeited the spontaneous freedom of 35 mm for a more detail-oriented, large-format technique that recalled nineteenth-century portraiture. In her two previous volumes, Barney chose to look at American families and their milieu, then carried on this examination of families in Europe. This new collection, Players , sees Barney expand her subject matter to include fashion, performers and actors, as well as her own circle of friends. Emboldened by the cacophony of the set and the stage, Barney has here embraced a more casual aesthetic that is no less visually exhilarating. In Players , she combines commercial assignments dating back as far as 1988 with editorial, fashion and portrait photography, selections from her personal work completing the mix. The result is refreshing, revealing and curious. Barney has always been fascinated by the circumstances in which her subjects operate; whether performing publicly or privately, they are all "players." Editor and designer Chip Kidd has translated that excitement to the pages of this volume, to which Michael Stipe has contributed a poetical commentary. Book information: Publisher: Steidl, September 30, 2010 English; Hardcover; 96 pages with 68 color illustrations Introduction by Michael Stipe About Tina Barney: Tina Barney was born in 1945 in New York. Since 1975, she has been producing large-scale photographs of family and friends. Her meticulous tableaux chronicle the complexity of interpersonal relationships. These lush color prints have been exhibited and collected by major institutions around the world. Among her exhibitions are a mid-career exhibition at The Museum of Modern Art, New York, in 1991 and the Whitney Biennial, 1987. More recently, her work has been shown at the New York State Theatre in New York, in 2011; The Barbican Art Centre, London; Museum Folkwang in Essen, Museum der Art Moderne, Salzburg, and others. In October, her work will be included in a major portraiture exhibition at The National Gallery, London. Barney was the recipient of a John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Fellowship in 1991, and the 2010 Lucie Award for Achievement in Portraiture. Her monographs include Tina Barney: Theatre of Manners, The Europeans, and her new book from Steidl, Players. She lives in New York and Rhode Island.
