Public Relations

€45.00
First edition hardcover with dust jacket. A unilateral report of how we behaved under pressure during a time of costumes and causes, and of how extravagantly, outrageously, and continuously we displayed what we wanted. Introduction by Tod Papageorge.
Public Relations is a distillation of a photographic project begun by Garry Winogrand in 1969 when he was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship to photograph what he called "the effect of media on events." With his characteristic zeal, passion, spontaneity, and intensity, Winogrand photographed an array of public events including museum openings, press conferences, sports games, demonstrations, and other staged activities. The photographs depict our emerging dependence on the media as well as how the media changes and sometimes even creates the event itself. The book features numerous black and white photographic images throughout, portraying the interaction between the media and politicians, celebrities, and other public figures.
