Description: JIM GOLDBERG RAISED BY WOLVES SIGNED Jim Goldberg SIGNED Philip Brookman Scalo, New York, 1997. Softcover. ISBN: 1881616509. 320 pages. Large quarto. 9 inches x 12 inches. Stated Second Scalo edition. Stiff photo illustrated wrappers. SIGNED by Jim Goldberg and also by Philip Brookman on the title page. Inscribed and dated. Jim Goldberg's powerful photobook, pioneering "a new kind of concerned, personal photojournalism" (Village Voice), with 177 striking black and white and 53 color photogravures. In Raised by Wolves, "Jim Goldberg makes a complex and thoughtful photobook about teenage runaways" that intersects photographs with "his views and theirs, adding their thoughts from interviews, their handwritten musings on scraps of paper, the snapshots they carry... The result is a collaged photobook, rich in incidental material, that emerges as a multi-layered and ambiguous document. This is a hard hitting and affecting book" (Parr & Badger II:303). Produced over a decade, from 1985 to 1995, Raised by Wolves "pioneered a new kind of concerned, personal photojournalism-one that closed the distance between the artist and his subjects... filtered through the you are there sensibilities of Larry Clark and Nan Goldin (Village Voice). Published in conjunction with exhibits (1995-96) at Washington"s Corcoran Gallery of Art, the Addison Gallery of American Art in Andover, and the Zurich Museum of Design. Authored in collaboration with Philip Brookman; the first edition was published in 1995. An amazing book. Bound in original full color wrappers with black and white wraparound photographic spine lettered in red and yellow. Contents clean and fresh, binding solid. Wear along edges of covers. Creases and scratches to covers. Small tear to the spine at head. Few spots of soiling. Corners lightly bumped. Spot of soiling to the fore edge. This book documents the lives of teenage runaways who live on the streets of San Francisco and Los Angeles. Goldberg tells their story with a combination of photographs, found documents, and handwritten texts by the subjects themselves. A stark and unsparing look at the lives of these displaced and misunderstood youths, this book is also a compassionate and moving study of adolescent life in America, revealing the myriad traps which are set by drugs, violence, and exploitation. A powerful and important work. Included in Parr Badger Volume II. Scarce signed copy. Signed by both Jim Goldberg and Philip Brookman.
