Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. Jim Marshall's unseen 'peace' photographs, collated and published here for the first time are a timely document for our world today. Almost 60 years after Gerald Holtom created the peace symbol, this body of work is a fascinating, beautiful, and thoughtful reflection from one of the most celebrated photographers of the twentieth century. It is introduced with a foreword by Joan Baez and text by Peter Doggett. Renowned street artist and graphic designer Shepard Fairey provides the book's afterword. The CND symbol was designed in 1958 by Gerald Holtom for the British Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament. Holtom later said of his inspiration for the symbol: "I was in despair. Deep despair. I drew myself: the representative of an individual in despair, with hands palm outstretched outwards and downwards in the manner of Goya's peasant before the firing squad. I formalized the drawing into a line and put a circle round it." The symbol spread from the UK to the anti-war campaign in the US. Marshall's photographs were taken mainly between 1961 and 1968 across America and chart the progression of the CND symbol from a 'Ban the Bomb'-specific protest, to an internationally recognised symbol of peace. He captured street graffiti in the New York subway, buttons pinned to hippies and students, and West Coast peace rallies held by a generation who believed, for a brief moment, they could make a difference. AUTHOR: Jim Marshall (1936-2010) has been called the most celebrated and prolific photographer of the twentieth century. Born in Chicago, teaching himself photography by capturing musicians in the North Beach coffeehouses he loved and frequented. He moved to New York in the early 1960s, working on assignment for Look and Life magazines and shooting album covers for Atlantic, Columbia and ABC Paramount. By the mid-1960s, he had moved back to San Francisco, with a reputation as a formidably talented music photographer already well established. In a career that ended with his untimely death in 2010, Marshall shot more than 500 album covers and his photographs are in private and museum collections around the world. Posthumously, Marshall holds the distinction of being the only photographer to ever be honored by The Grammys with a Trustees Award for his life's work.

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Jim Marshalls bislang unveröffentlichte 'Peace'-Fotografien, die hier zum ersten Mal zusammengestellt und publiziert werden, sind in der Welt von heute aktueller denn je. Fast 60 Jahre nach der Schaffung des CND-Friedenssymbols (CND steht für Campaign for Nuclear Disarmement, also die Kampagne für nukleare Abrüstung) stellt diese Auswahl einen ebenso schönen wie inhaltlich dichten Werkkomplex dar. Das Vorwort stammt von dem bekannten Straßenkünstler und Grafikdesigner Shepard Fairey. Der begleitende Text wurde von Peter Doggett verfasst. Die Folk-Sängerin Joan Baez hat für dieses Buch das Nachwort geschrieben.Marshall sah sich als Anthropologe und Journalist gleichermaßen. Als jemand, der die aufgeregten Zeiten und die Explosion von Kreativität und Star-Kult in den 1960er Jahren visuell festhielt. Er liebte die Street Photography. Zwischen seinen offiziellen Aufträgen begann er, das CND-Friedenssymbol und die Abrüstungs-Demos für sich privat zu dokumentieren. Er bewahrte diese Bilder in seinem Archiv unter der Bezeichnung 'Peace' auf, wo sie bis zur jetzigen Veröffentlichung verborgen waren.Das CND-Symbol wurde 1958 von Gerald Holtom für die britische Kampagne für nukleare Abrüstung entworfen. Von Großbritannien aus eroberte das Symbol auch die Anti-Kriegs-Kampagne in den USA. Marshalls Fotografien entstanden hauptsächlich zwischen 1961 und 1968 überall in Amerika. Sie zeigen die Wandlung des Symbols vom ursprünglichen 'Weg mit der Bombe' zu einem international anerkannten Friedenssymbol. Marshall hielt es auf Straßen-Graffiti in der New Yorker U-Bahn fest, auf Buttons, die von Hippies oder Studenten getragen wurden, oder bei Friedens-Demos an der Westküste, die von den damals Beteiligten in dem festen Glauben organisiert wurden, sie könnten für einen kurzen Moment die Geschichte beeinflussen.Deutsche Ausgabe: ISBN 978-3-9818890-0-0.
