Spearheaded by Larry Clark's portfolio Tulsa, published in 1980, with an estimate of 40,000-50,000 EUR, Villa Grisebach starts off its fall auction of modern and contemporary photography with an American classic. Including fifty images, Clark's portfolio documents the youth scene of his hometown in the late 1960s with an unsparing and direct attitude. Other masterpieces offered in this sale are the well-known Portfolio 1, a compilation of distinct compositions executed 1927-1935 by the renown German architectural photographer Werner Mantz and published by Edition Galerie Schürmann & Kicken in 1977 (estimate of 12,000-18,000 EUR), as well as a photograph by Ruth Orkin entitled American Girl in Italy, which by now has been recognized as an icon in the history of photography (estimate of 8,000-10,000 EUR). Photographs by Albert Renger-Patzsch will be represented in this auction with a series of garden landscapes depicting the country estate of the Warburg family near Hamburg. Commonly considered as rarities, some exceptional vintage prints are also on sale this fall: a portrait of Ellen Auerbach by Grete Stern (estimate of 3,000-4,000 EUR) and two images taken by the American photographer Helen Levitt: a portrait of the author James Agee (1939) and New York City from the Series The Reds (c. 1940). In addition, the fall photography auction will offer works by Josef Maria Eder & Eduard Valenta, William Henry Fox Talbot, Félix Teynard, and Eadweard Muybridge (19th century), as well as works by Bernd & Hilla Becher, Erwin Blumenfeld, Robert Capa, Frantisek Drtikol, Alfred Eisenstaedt, Hugo Erfurth, Andreas Feininger, Man Ray, Martin Munkácsi, and Erich Salomon. | 159 | | Thu May 29, 2008 | Modern and Contemporary Photographs | | | Thu Nov 29, 2007 | Photography | |
