About the Item

First edition (stated), first printing of Ryan McGinley’s first published collection of photographs, drawn from his series “The Kids are Alright” and published by Index Books in 2002. 8vo (6” x 9”), 62 unnumbered pages with 44 color and 2 b/w images. Photographs and book design by McGinley. Signed by the artist on the title page. Laid in is an invitation card for a book signing in May 2003 at Printed Matter, along with two ephemeral items from his first solo show (The Kids are Alright) in February 2003 at the Whitney Museum: an invitation card (laid in) and an announcement for a conversation with Larry Clark (now tipped in). A notable small archive of the book and exhibition that launched McGinley’s career. Scarce thus.

Magnum Photobook, The Catalogue Raisonne
Located in New York, NY
The first complete illustrated bibliography of 1,000 iconic photobooks created by members of the renowned photo agency This fascinating in-depth survey brings Magnum's history alive through the genre of the photobook, an essential vehicle for photographers to share their work. Its pages include unpublished behind-the-scenes material, together with ephemera from the photographers' archives about the making of their books. With an introduction by Fred Ritchin and texts by Carole Naggar, this book explores the evolution of the photobook, as well as the important role that Magnum has played in the history of documentary photography. "If the photographic life were a treasure hunt, The Magnum Photobook is a rightfully vaunted treasure chest. Fred Ritchin and Carole Naggar's introduction expanded my understanding of how the photobook, as expressed early and continuously by Magnum photographers, plays a critical role in defining and expressing a photographer's voice beyond the settings of assignment-based work. Then learning about the creation of each book is the richest of rewards, made all the more so by a final section of the book that shows the early iterations of many of the photobooks. This book about books is one that I must have in the library." —Mike Davis...
