Bill Burke - I Want to Take Picture
By Bill Burke
Located in New York, NY
"The triumph of this book is that it does manage to reflect the mad experience of traveling in Southeast Asia, while still reflecting on what it all means" (Roth 101).
FIRST EDITION of one of the seminal photobooks of the 1980's. SIGNED BY BURKE INSIDE ORIGINAL DRAWING OF HIS HAND. One of only 1000 copies printed of the first edition.
"Bill Burke has become known for his large-format portraits shot on Polaroid Land film, which have the formality and feel of nineteenth-century photographs whilst remaining acutely modern in their sensibilities. In his best book, I Want to Take Picture, this technique is entirely appropriate, since it records his personal pilgrimage to southeast Asia, duplicating the enterprise of the old colonialist photographers but adding a contemporary twist...

Scholars theorize that these Polish Chanukah Lamps that bear two servant lights (as opposed to the singular servant light normally found on a Chanukah Lamp), served a purpose, having been used on one of the days that Chanukah fell on the Sabbath, as Sabbath Candlesticks.
For another example, see page 296 of the book “Five Centuries of Hanukkah Lamps...

In the Studio - A publishing collaboration between Gagosian Gallery and Phaidon
Located in New York, NY
A publishing collaboration between Gagosian Gallery and Phaidon.
An in-depth study of painters’ and photographers’ studios with examples from the sixteenth through the twentieth centuries.
Introductory essays and catalogue entries on individual works by two experts in their respective fields—John Elderfield for In the Studio: Paintings and Peter Galassi for In the Studio: Photographs.
An invaluable and unprecedented art historical resource that will also appeal to a general audience.
The slipcased two-book set accompanies simultaneous exhibitions, one each on painting and photography, at Gagosian Gallery’s New York locations, open February 17 – April 18, 2015.Gagosian Gallery was founded in 1980 by Larry Gagosian. Since then, it has grown from a single exhibition space in Los Angeles to fourteen distinct spaces in eight cities around the world. Specializing in modern and contemporary art, Gagosian Gallery maintains a distinguished historical program and a roster of the world’s most acclaimed living artists.
John Elderfield, a Consultant at Gagosian Gallery, is Chief Curator Emeritus of Painting and Sculpture at The Museum of Modern Art, where he directed numerous celebrated exhibitions, among them Kurt Schwitters, Henri Matisse: A Retrospective, and De Kooning: A Retrospective, and the more specialized Manet and the Execution of Maximilian and Matisse: Radical Invention, 1913–1917. He is the recipient of Harkness and John Simon Guggenheim Fellowships; of the first Mitchell Prize for an outstanding publication on twentieth-century art; and has been a visiting scholar at the Getty Research Institute and the American Academy in Rome. In 2005, Time magazine named him one of the 100 Most Influential People of the Year; and in 2006 was awarded an honorary D. Litt. from The University of Leeds, and was made Officier dans l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres by the French Government.
Peter Galassi retired from The Museum of Modern Art in 2011 after thirty years at the museum, including twenty as Chief Curator of Photography. He has devoted exhibitions and publications to the work of Henri Cartier-Bresson, Roy DeCarava...
