Signed X2 Nicolo Degiorgis (with Editing and Introduction by Martin Parr) - Hidden Islam + 479 comments - 2014

Unique and unfindable set of the two books 'Hidden Islam' and '479 comments,' both first editions signed by Nicolo Degiorgis on the front page. Martin Parr wrote a two-page introduction for Hidden Islam and also handled the editing of the book with the author, which is exceptional. The second volume of comments was published in a limited edition of only 300 copies, and Hidden Islam has been reissued multiple times. The copies are in excellent condition, practically new.

Hidden Islam. 180 pages in fold-outs. 90 black-and-white photographs and 45 color photographs in double pages. The editing of this book, which Nicolo Degiorgis designed with Martin Parr, is truly original because when flipping through the book, it seems to be made up solely of black-and-white photographs depicting makeshift places of worship grouped by themes: 'Warehouses,' 'Shops,' 'Supermarkets,' 'Apartments,' 'Stadiums,' 'Gyms,' 'Garages,' 'Nightclubs.' But when opening the fold-outs, one can view the interior of these places of worship, which are much warmer because they are furnished and people are present there. Thus, Hidden Islam is also Hidden photography!

2. 479 comments. 180 pages of English text with pamphlets. The edition is limited to 300 copies. The book features a lively discussion published in the British newspaper 'The Guardian' in response to an article about the project. Additionally, inside the pamphlets, there are maps showing the topographical locations of improvised Islamic places of worship, with numbering that corresponds to that of the first volume.
