These pictures marked the beginning of his photographic inquiry into the American psyche and landscape that has now lasted half a century. \u003ci\u003eRecreation\u003c\/i\u003e captures the vitality of modern America in a pre-smartphone, less self-conscious time. In these early works, Epstein's wit reigns, along with his singular way of making the mundane startle and the extraordinary appear to perfectly fit in.\u003cbr\u003eThis new edition expands on the original \u003ci\u003eRecreation\u003c\/i\u003e book published by Steidl in 2005. More than a third of these photographs have never been published, and all of them have been reworked with fidelity to the pictorial quality of the films of the era.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 176\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 x 14 x 11.2 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 30, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51765715337504,"sku":"9783969990827","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/cbd6db7c564653ee839ab1974df92c9a.jpg?v=1780277899","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/mitch-epstein-recreation-hardcover","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
