DISTORTIONS. 1977.

London: Thames & Hudson, 1977

28.5 x 22cm, unpaginated. Gray cloth covered boards with pictorial dj. First UK edition (after the US release from 1976) of the photographer’s distorted nude photography using fairground mirrors in that far off time before post-production and photoshop where the photographer created a series of 120 surrealist nudes series in Paris in 1932. All images are printed in gravure and to a very high standard. Internally all is VG but the dust jacket has been torn and browned over time – paper lacks on both sides and around folds. Scarce but priced thus due to the sadly shameful damage to the dj.
