that exhibition. Like the exhibition, the book is divided into three sections: World War II,<br />

Hitachi, and Minamata. Since the photos are captioned (in Japanese and English), they are<br />

easy to understand and quite educational. They offer a trip back in time when life in Japan<br />

was full of sad conflicts. Many of the photos tell a sad story. Quality English translations<br />

are provided with the Japanese text which includes reminiscing essays by a few people<br />

including his wife Aileen. - € 200<br />

first exhibition included a section on the work of Laszlo Moholy-Nagy, Herbert Bayer<br />

and Man Ray. Three exhibitions with the title Subjektive Fotografie were held (1951,<br />

1954, 1958). These gave Steinert and the other members of Fotoform the opportunity to<br />

systematize developments in creative photography while acknowledging the legacy of Neue<br />

Sachlichkeit, the Bauhaus and Surrealism. Steinert believed Subjektive Fotografie to form<br />

the basis of an international pictorial language. He published two books to explain the philosophy<br />

behind the exhibitions, Subjektive Fotografie and Subjektive Fotografie II. - € 300<br />

by Stone, Man Ray, Steichen, Moholy-Nagy, Renger-Patzsch, Abbott, Weston and many<br />

472. STRAND, Paul & ROY, Claude: La France de profil.<br />

Lausanne, La Guilde du Livre, 1952. Stiff pictorial wrappers, 121 pp. Text in French.<br />

“Although Roy’s layout, sequencing, and inspired text for La France de Profil often seem<br />

to be at odds with Strand’s exactingly composed, meditative images, the combination<br />

couldn’t be more engaging. Roy’s texts, many of them handwritten, cavort around the<br />

photos, commenting, celebrating, spinning their own tales. The gravure reproduction in La<br />

France de Profil was overseen by Strand. The results are superb: crisp, radiantly dark, and<br />

with an unusual depth. “--Vince Aletti from The Book of 101 Books. - € 295<br />

474. STRÖMHOLM, Christer: Picture show no 1.<br />

475. STRÖMHOLM, Christer: Poste restante.<br />

Stockholm. Norstedt & Söhners., 1967. Cloth in dustjacket. 20 pp., plus 96 full-page black<br />

& white photographs.<br />

Originally published in 1967, Poste Restante has become one of the most collectible<br />

photography books from the mid-twentieth century, ranking alongside the better-known<br />

publications of Robert Frank and Ed van der Elsken. This photographic autobiography<br />

details Strömholm’s extensive travels across the globe in a book constructed as an Existentialist<br />

diary. Juxtaposing the urbane and the macabre, combining portraiture and street<br />

scenes with abstract photographic fragments, the book uses metaphor and visual pun in an<br />

unrelenting stream of consciousness. In its sequence and design, it is a book that prefigures<br />

much of contemporary photographic publishing and art practice. Dustjacket with some<br />

minor tears, dustjacket missing some chips of paper on the top and bottom of the spine.<br />

- € 1.000<br />
