“SOMETHING NEW HAS ENTERED THE WORLD”

ARBUS, Amy. The Inconvenience of Being Born. (New York: Fotofolio, 1999). Quarto, original photographic paper-covered boards. $150.

First edition of Arbus’ second photobook, boldly signed by her on the title page, with 48 full-bleed full-page tritones.

To Richard Avedon, the work of Amy Arbus offers photography a vital and innovative perspective. “In Arbus’ self-portraits, in her unlikely babies, something new has entered the world with the irreversible impact of raw feeling made visible” (Aperture). As issued without dust jacket.

A fine signed copy.
