{"product_id":"9783863359188","title":"Hans-Peter Feldmann: Nur F�r Privat","description":"German photographer Hans-Peter Feldmann (born 1941) is a virtuoso taxonomist of contemporary visual culture, whose artists’ books collate vernacular found imagery into revelatory historical documents. With \u003ci\u003eNur für Privat\u003c\/i\u003e (which translates roughly as \"for private use only\"), Feldmann has created a portrait of the German \"swinger scene\" of the 1970s and ‘80s.\u003cbr\u003eThe book is composed of amateur photographs of women in various degrees of undress, which were enclosed with letters and circulated among couples to convey sexual proclivities and attractiveness, as a way of getting to know each other. (Initial contact would be made through ads in newspapers and magazines.) The photos, taken from a collection of more than 1,000 images, were mostly shot in domestic settings, or outdoors against bucolic backdrops, with props ranging from bondage gear to imaginatively deployed candles. \u003ci\u003eNur für Privat\u003c\/i\u003e is destined to become a landmark installment in Feldmann’s oeuvre.","brand":"Walther Konig Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47053585449200,"sku":"9783863359188","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9783863359188_p0.jpg?v=1763697913","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9783863359188","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
