About the Item
AUTHOR: KENNA, Michael - Henry Adams.
TITLE: Mont-Saint-Michel.
PUBLISHER: 21st Editions, 2007.
DESCRIPTION: SIGNED LIMITED EDITION. 1 vol., 16-3/4" x 14-3/4", limited to 60 numbered copies of which this is #17, signed and numbered by Michel Kenna, John Wood, Lance Speer, and the publisher, Steven Albahari on the limitation page, fourteen signed original hand printed platinum prints plus one signed free-standing platinum print, housed in the original silk cloth clamshell slipcase.
CONDITION: IN MINT CONDITION.
HISTORY: This copy #17, was presented to Lance Speer (21st Editions Contributing Editor and Director of Marketing and writer of the original essay contained in the book entitled “Memory as Muse: Michael Kenna at Mont-Saint-Michel”) upon completion of the project. Included is a letter of provenance by Speer. The entire edition sold out, sight unseen, in only fourteen days.
AWARDS: 21st Editions was awarded the prestigious Independent Publisher (IPPY) Book Award Silver Medal in 2008 for "Best Book Arts Craftsmanship" for its publication "Mont-Saint-Michel."
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: For years Michael Kenna has been recognized as one of the world's leading photographers, an artist with so great a grasp of place that his way of seeing Stonehenge, Versailles, Easter Island, Hokkaido, and elsewhere has become "our" way of seeing them. Kenna has now turned his eye to Mont-Saint-Michel where light dawns through graceful arches, cascades down stairways and roadways, wraps itself around 900 year old Gothic architecture in a delicate embrace as it seeps into otherwise impermeable stone to illuminate it from within. Kenna has indeed created the photographic portrait of the island and its architecture, a body of work which rivals and complements Henry Adams' classic Mont-Saint-Michel and Chartres, the famed book which is the verbal portrait of the Mount. This handmade, limited edition unites Adams’ words with Kenna’s images and contains a short introduction by John Wood and a scholarly essay by Lance Speer.
