Since 1994, Uta Barth has been creating a series of photographs which consist of blurred images generated by focusing the camera on an unoccupied foreground. These unframed, empty, but lushly seductive images present only background information, implying the absence of subjects, and referring to the function of images as containers of information and the role of the viewer in reading that information. This book is a faithful reproduction of the long out-of-print catalogue which was published on the occasion of Barth's first major museum exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, in 1996.

Seller's Description:
(BARTH, UTA). Smith, Elizabeth A.T. AT THE EDGE OF THE DECIPHERABLE: RECENT PHOTOGRAPHS BY UTA BARTH-DELUXE HARDBOUND SLIPCASED EDITION SIGNED BY THE PHOTOGRAPHER WITH A PRINT. Signed by the Photographer-with a Signed Print. Los Angeles. 1995 (2002). : Museum of Contemporary Art & St. Ann's Press, First Thus 1/45 Deluxe. Square 8vo. Pictorial Boards in Slipcase. Photography Monograph. As New/No Jacket-As Issued. 54pp, 25 color illustrations. Designed by Paul McMenamin. Originally published in conjunction with her 1995 solo exhibition at Los Angeles' Museum of Contemporary Art, Uta Barth's first publication gorgeously illustrates the artist's then-current body of work. Its hazy color photographs of indistinct residential settings and domestic details are mysteriously evocative and suggestive of great meaning. In 2002, the extraordinary St. Ann's Press produced in collaboration with the artist this new edition of her unavailable catalogue featuring a different cover photograph, and color images for the text illustrations previously reproduced in black and white. Limited to forty-five copies only, this example is from the ultra-deluxe hardbound, slipcased edition NUMBERED (9/45), SIGNED, AND DATED by Uta Barth in black ink on the title page, as issued, that includes a SIGNED AND DATED 9 ¼ x 8 ½" color print entitled "Ground (02.1)" mounted on one inch deep plywood backing. A brand new, pristine example of this uncommon item still in the publisher's original plastic wrapping. PLEASE NOTE: Additional shipping costs are required for this item beyond our standard rates due to its weight and value-we will inform you of the applicable amount at time of purchase. 0-9713681-0-4 Inventory Number: 024084.
