Published on the occasion of the exhibition of the same name held at the Stephen Daiter Gallery Chicago between June and August 2018. Presents "Young At Heart: Selections From The John Cleary Kid Collection". Vintage prints, beautifully reproduced, of kid photographs by some of the greatest names in photography of the 20th century. Classic photographs by Berenice Abbott, Helen Levitt, Ralph Eugene Meatyard, Eugene Richards, Sabine Weiss, Lou Stoumen, Louis Stettner, Garry Winogrand, Duane Michals, Ruth Orkin, Leon Levinstein, and Margaret Bourke-White, among others, give a pretty good idea of the world-class quality - and significance - of the 750 photographs that John Cleary amassed over decades of collecting he devoted single-mindedly to children, that most appealing and heartbreaking of images (therefore prone to sentimentality and bathos). As these selections show, Cleary was well aware of the pitfalls, collected with discriminating taste and with an eye, as it were, for their genuine value to posterity. This is only the second memorial book-tribute to John Cleary and his legendary "Kid Collection". "Where You Gonna Get Another One: Photographs From The John Cleary Kid Collection", privately published in a Limited Edition of 300 copies in 2008, promptly vanished, and is now impossible to find. An absolute "must-have" title for John Cleary and photography book collectors. This title is a contemporary art photography classic. As far as we know, this is the only copy of the Exhibition Catalog available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. A scarce copy thus. Lavishly illustrated with black-and-white plates. Some of the greatest photographers of the 20th century. A fine copy. ., Stephen Daiter Gallery, 2018, 5, New.

Vorsatz signiert.- 1969 verliess die im aargauischen Freiamt geborene Schwester Gaudentia Meier das Kloster Baldegg und reiste nach Papua-Neuguinea. Für die ausgebildete Krankenschwester und Hebamme ging damit ein Kindheitstraum in Erfüllung. Sie hatte keine Ahnung, was sie erwarten würde. Und auch die Einheimischen, auf die sie traf, sahen das erste Mal eine weisse Frau. In den folgenden 50 Jahren baute Schwester Gaudentia mitten im Regenwald zusammen mit vier Mitschwestern ein Spital und eine Pfl egerinnenschule auf. Sie leistete Geburtshilfe, wurde zur Pionierin der Aids-Prävention und setzte sich vehement gegen die Verfolgung von Frauen als Hexen ein. Die Klosterfrau wagte den Schritt in die weite Welt, mit kaum mehr als Gottvertrauen im Gepäck. Heute ist Schwester Gaudentia über 80 Jahre alt. In vielen Gesprächen mit der Journalistin Helene Arnet berichtete sie aus ihrem bewegten Leben, das sie in grossen Teilen in ihrer neuen Heimat im südwestlichen Pazifik verbrachte. 010, Zürich, Hier und Jetzt, 2020, 0<
