Photobooth | Prose Books |
by Raynal Pellicer. |
DESCRIPTION Since its introduction to the public in September of 1926 on a street corner in New York City, the automatic photobooth has captured the interest of the general public and fine artists alike. Raynal Pellicer, author of Mug Shots, examines the self-portraits—sometimes practical, sometimes whimsical—produced by this enduring 20th-century novelty. The countless documents included here feature shots of Francis Bacon, Billy Childish, Allen Ginsberg, John F. Kennedy, Anne Frank, Salvador Dalí, André Breton, Wim Wenders, Walker Evans, and John Lennon, among others. Photobooth draws a fantastic inventory of artistic variations on the snapshot, bringing together works of art and self-portraits of persons both known and unknown, from the 1920s to the present. Please refer to the photographs to aid in the description and condition. Should you have any further questions, please contact us. |

WHO ARE WE? Prose Books is an online bookshop located in Perth, Western Australia. The shop is run with a true passion for books, specialising in out-of-print and rare titles. We've scoured many estate sales, markets, auctions and marketplaces to acquire the most interesting, unique and (occasionaly) hard-to-find books. Whether you're a collector, a holiday reader, or just a lover of books, Prose Books is sure to have something that will interest you. If you have watched Black Books, "The bookshop does not have an inviting atmosphere. Visitors are discouraged. We drink wine."... you get the idea. We've been selling on ebay since 2001! |
