ROY DECARAVA: PHOTOGRAPHS with an introduction by Sherry Turner DeCarava (Inscribed association copy)

Friends of Photography, 1981, First edition, Unpaginated, 11 1/4" X 12 1/4", Hardcover

Very good  (Inscribed by DeCarava to his photography dealer Lee Witkin)

The first retrospective monograph on this important African American photographer whose collaboration with Langston Hughes resulted in the iconic book "Sweet Flypaper of Life." Features a long introduction by Sherry Turner DeCarava. Includes 82 black and white images, chronology, list of previous exhibitions, and bibliography.

This copy is inscribed by DeCarava to pioneering photography dealer Lee Witkin. (Who represented DeCarava from the early 1970’s through the 1990’s.)

Lee Witkin was a pioneer in the world of photography and is credited with the launching of photography to public consciousness and collector interest. In 1969 he opened the first commercial gallery of photography and broke ground for the diverse scene that is photography today.  His importance in the field cannot be overestimated.

An extremely rare and noteworthy association copy.
