Description from the seller

This is the LAST EXCLUSIVE BEST-OF-PHOTOBOOKS AUCTION by 5Uhr30.com, Cologne, Germany -

VERY SCARCE OPPORTUNITY to purchase this SPECTACULAR, EXCITING WORK OVERVIEW of the famous photographer Ray K. Metzker.

WITH THE ORIGINAL DUSTJACKET + SIGNED BY THE ARTIST.

Signed by Ray K. Metzker.
Signatures by this artist are very scarce.
I GUARANTEE THE AUTHENTICITY OF THE SIGNATURE.

"The goal of this publication is a fully-retrospective presentation of the work of Ray K. Metzker, one of the most important and original American photographers of the second half of the twentieth century. The book, with more than 200 high-quality reproductions, features all aspects of his prolific career of more fifty years - which still shows no sign of abating. Well-known and much-exhibited in the United States, Metzker is inexplicably less well-known outside the States. This retrospective survey encompasses the full range of Metzker's brilliant, constantly evolving, formal language."
