Greg Gorman: Volume 1

      CPC 1989 - With 89 black and white plates include 2 three-page fold-out nudes. Internally clean and tight, light shelfwear to boards, dusting to top edge, Near Fine in a Very Good dust jacket that is lightly edgeworn, soiled and unevenly sunned. ~ These photos were taken between 1982-89 and appear to have been hand-picked by the photographer, Greg Gorman. You've seen many of them before, they are often the defining portrait of an actor from that era. Gorman carves his subject out of light and turns their trademark faces into his own art. It almost makes one believe that a photograph can steal a soul. (Which would go a long way toward explaining the behavior of Charlie Sheen, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Winona Ryder, and many of the other celebrities whose portraits are included here.)
