Album: The Portraits of Duane Michals 1958-1988, signed by the artist

“This book is my album of the faces of the people I have encountered along the way in the last thirty years, somehow held in the suspension of time, like particles in the air made visible by sunlight. I do not claim to have captured anything or revealed anything about them. Whom have you revealed yourself to? What is seen here is just what is seen. It is the record of the moments I have shared with them at the point of intersection of our lives, now gently fading, already lost.” —Duane Michals

This is a selection of the photographer’s most notable portraits—125 photogravure plates depicting family, artists, filmmakers, celebrities and everyday folks. Subjects include Marcel Duchamp, Rene Magritte, and Jacques Tati in their later years; and younger images of Andy Warhol, Dennis Hopper, and Meryl Streep, and others. Handwritten captions are printed with each image.

Second edition, limited to 5,000 copies. Signed by Michals on the first page.
