Description from the seller

ROBERT HEINECKEN | One Picture Book #14: Studies Nineteen Seventy

ISBN: 1-59005-031-2
Hardcover, 5 1/2 x 7 1/4, 16 pages, 12 duotone plates, 1 original print. Limited to 500 numbered and signed copies.

It is natural, when faced with photographic negatives, to hold them up to the light. The same applies when encountering Robert Heinecken’s set of reversed images from a 1970s 'top-shelf' magazine. However, if you're in a crowded room (or bookstore), resist the urge. Heinecken created these incredible photograms, showing verso and recto pages simultaneously—and in negative—over thirty years ago. A long-forgotten offshoot of his famous ARE YOU REA portfolio, published in 1968, they were only recently rediscovered in Heinecken’s archives. A pioneer of recycled imagery, Heinecken is universally recognized for redefining the boundaries of photography as an art form. studiesnineteenseventy is produced in an edition of 500 copies, each with a signed original silver gelatin print. Sold out. 'It was once believed that [Heinecken’s] early photograms were lost. After a fire in his studio, several household moves, and a relocation from LA to Chicago, he finally unpacked his belongings and found this early work, which, thirty years later, appears more innocent and more beautiful in its graphic sensuality.' – Vogue Hommes International
