Ut Press for Christmas
Fri., Dec. 18, 1998
For several seasons now, UT Press has been bolstering their art and photography publications. Here are the most recent titles:
- Portraits From the Desert: Bill Wright's Big Bend. $40 hard; $24.95 paper. This is that rare hybrid -- equally engaging text and photographs by Bill Wright.
- Texas Sky, by Wyman Meinzer with an introduction by John Graves. $29.95 hard. The majestic, mercurial Texas sky.
- The Edge of Time: Photographs of Mexico by Mariana Yampolsky. $24.95 hard. Sandra Berler writes that "each photograph is like a short narrative sentence," expressive, beautiful ones at that.
- Poster Art From the Golden Age of Mexican Cinema by Charles Ramirez Berg and Rogelio Agrasanchez Jr. $29.95 paper. In July, Charles Nafuswrote an article for the Chronicle in which he stated that the authors "have proven that the celluloid treasures of the Mexican cinema were accompanied by equally fascinating artwork." -- C.S.
