London: Phaidon, 2005. First Edition. Folio. 33cm. Publisher's white cloth titled in silver gilt to spine, with publisher's imprint to front board. Dustjacket. 288pp. Minor bumping to corners and spine ends, some very slight areas of soiling, tight and strong; internally clean and fresh, signed and dated by Mary Ellen Mark to the title page; in a strong, clean example of the dustjacket with some light wear to spine ends. A very good, clean copy indeed of a ambitious production.
A mammoth gathering together of Mark's most iconic and memorable photographs, encompassing sections from her Circus collection, the work that went to make up "Falkland Road", and her explorations of underworlds and underclasses around the world. Collected here in one lavishly produced volume, it becomes abundantly clear tha Mark's work is concerned with those who are denied a space in mainstream society; addicts, lepers, acrobats, musicians and sex workers all find a voice and a place in front of her lens.
