In Case You Missed It: Counterculture Photography of the 1960s and 1970s

內容簡介

內容簡介 Jerry de Wilde's gorgeous photography captures a deeply intimate portrait of a lost era--Los Angeles in the 1960s. In Case You Missed It: Counterculture Photography of the 1960s and 1970s captures a moment that burned fast and bright--Los Angeles at the crest of the countercultural tide. Through Jerry "Dok" de Wilde's lens, the era comes alive in vivid, intimate detail: from daily life at "the Farm," a commune in what is now the Hollywood Hills, where creative and social experimentation flourished, to the larger currents of history unfolding at Monterey Pop and the Moratorium to End the War in Vietnam. Moving fluidly between art, music, fashion, and activism, In Case You Missed It is a layered examination of both a community--and a moment--shaped by ideals of transformation, creativity, and shared experience.

作者介紹

作者介紹 Jerry de Wilde was born in Brooklyn, NY, where he lived until he left to attend college at Columbia University in 1955. In late spring of 1965, he and friend, Anton Greene, an artist and filmmaker, rented the old 46-acre Barham Ranch in the hills above Warner Bros. Studios in Los Angeles. Over the next seven to eight years it became known as "The Farm," a creative environment that was a notorious haven for actors, writers, musicians, artists, designers, filmmakers and poets with something to say. In 1992, de Wilde was invited to be an associate professor of fine art photography at Woodbury University where he taught for seven years. Most recently he has been photographing and printing large and medium format black and white abstract landscapes shot mostly in the American Southwest and Scotland.
