About This Item
(MILLS, JOSEPH). Mills, Joseph. JOSEPH MILLS: THE LOVES OF THE POETS - DELUXE BOXED, SIGNED EDITION LIMITED TO TEN COPIES ILLUSTRATED ENTIRELY WITH ORIGINAL PHOTOGRAPHS. Signed by the Photographer with Color Photographs. Tucson, AZ & Washington, DC: Nazraeli Press, Hemphill Fine Arts & JGS (Joy of Giving Something), 2002. First Edition 1/10 Deluxe. Large Folio. Ostrich over Velvet Boards. Photography Monograph. As New/As New. np (32pp), 26 color illustrations. "The Loves of the Poets", featuring Joseph Mills' beautifully raw, disturbingly seductive collages, is a work of art unto itself. This gorgeous artist's book published in 2002 by Nazraeli Press, Hemphill Fine Arts, and Joy of Giving Something features twenty-six collages that seem to be on the verge of complete revelation but time and again leave the viewer on a suspended note. The success of these images, in the words of photographic historian and curator Anne Tucker, "lies in the fact that they are anchored in reality just enough so that we are on the edge between surreality and reality." Beautifully reproduced with antique paper backgrounds and a rich double varnish, "The Loves of the Poets" brings the marriage of artist and book to a new level". A brand new, pristine example from the exceedingly uncommon deluxe edition limited to ten copies NUMBERED (2/10) AND SIGNED "Joseph Mills" in black ink on the rear colophon with full gilt edges, gilt-stamped green velvet covers, and green ostrich skin spine in which each of the twenty-six full page illustrations is an ORIGINAL VARNISHED COLOR PHOTOGRAPH laid down on the book's printed cardstock pages. This is housed in the publisher's black wooden box accompanied by its original cardboard shipping carton. 1-59005-127-0 Inventory Number: 025783
