Soft cover. Condición: Very Good. 1st Edition. First Edition (NAP). This book contains the fairly rare tipped-in translucent title half-sheet (which is in excellent condition). The first printing soft cover edition was apparently simultaneously published with the cloth edition. The pages are unnumbered, several sellers have refe…renced there being over 300 pages. There is no text, every page is a black and white photograph. You can see the covers in the photos. They are mostly clean, with one little spot on the front. There is a very thin crease on the spine and a little wear at both spine ends. Part of the publisher's name near the bottom of the spine is rubbed off (the top half of the letters in 'Nova' and the word 'Press'). The binding is solid throughout. The covers are nicely tight. The pages are exceptionally clean. I haven't found any soiling at all. There's no conspicuous creasing, no placeholder creases. There are no markings. No attachments. And no one has written their name or anything else anywhere in the book. 'A man walks into a room and puts a vinyl record on a turntable. He goes outside, gets into his car, drives to a gallery and picks up a book. That, on one level, is what happens in Michael Snow's photobook Cover to Cover. It's also a meta-book that makes unique use of the medium. And it can be read backwards or forwards. Snow made Cover to Cover as a book artwork in 1975, shortly after his film Two Sides to Every Story (1974), the product of two cameramen filming each other from opposite sides of a room, was completed. The book deploys a similar conceit: the actions described are photographed simultaneously from two opposing angles, so that on one side of the page we see, for example, a door, and on the other the back of the man standing just on the other side of that door. The back-to-back setup gives flipping through the book a physical playfulness: at one point, facing off from two sides of a typewriter, the page you're holding becomes a doubled embodiment of a blank page (both representationally and literally); at another, we see the corner of a sitting room, the opposite side facing in towards the ivy-tangled outside of that part of the house, the page somehow becoming a brick wall. The book makes no bones about disclosing the process of its making; at several points the photographers capture each other from across a room or a street. It all might sound like a neat little spiral snake eating its own tail, a conceptual gotcha, but as soon as you begin to recognize and settle into a pattern, the book shifts again, turning what you think you're seeing inside out. Cover to Cover instructs you in how to read it as you go, asking you to digest inversions and sly twists, as well as literally turning the book upside down. Images you thought were simply showing you what was going on become photographs that get folded up or enclosed into a book within the book.' 'Michael James Aleck Snow was a Canadian artist who worked in a range of media including film, installation, sculpture, photography, and music. His best-known films are Wavelength (1967) and La Région Centrale (1971), with the former regarded as a milestone in avant-garde cinema. Snow is considered one of the most influential experimental filmmakers of all time.'. Michael Snow; Keith Lock & Vince Sharp (ilustrador).
