Seller's Description:
Very Good. 0909237042. Now in a removable archival protective mylar clear cover. Very good in the original pictorial stiff thin card covers. Writing by James David Mathews. George Hallet is the aclaimed self-taught photographer whose photographs have won six World Press Photo prizes. He sees photography not only as an art medium but also as a means to articulate social and political content (anti-apartheid). Light foxing to covers, endpapers and slightly throughout. The moving photographs in this collection provide a trip into his nostalgia-a salute to a mileu of which he was part...Faces of the true South Africa familiar to him. From Wikipedia "Hallett's work is focused on capturing positive moments that communicate the triumph of the human spirit. He is vocal about this quality in his work. It sets his work apart from his peers and its development can be traced back to his early images of District Six and continued into his understated portraits of South African exiles. Hallett identified with the exiled, but not only politically. Images would include family and community activity as they interacted with each other, socialising, making music and the like. Hallett's partiality to the hopeful does not compromise the often sombre or dire themes he tackles through his image production. Hallett describes himself as a humanist. He is strongly committed to passing on his skills to aspiring photographers, and has taught photography at American, British, European, and South African institutions. George Hallett's photographs are represented in museums and galleries in South Africa as well as internationally." very scarce; B&W photographs; Oblong 8vo 8" to 9" oblong; 72 pages.
