From John Cohen's Past Present Peru |
We just received copies of John Cohen's Past Present Peru for the book signing this Friday in photo-eye Gallery. Packaged one to a box and weighing just over 8 lbs, Past Present Peru is the newest book by John Cohen on the country of Peru and includes a wealth of well-researched and well-documented aspects of its culture, presented in various media including photographs, music and film. The book set is housed in a slipcase and includes one book of Cohen's photographs of the inhabitants of the Andes; one book documenting Peruvian textiles, presented with reproductions of a correspondence on these textiles between Cohen and Junius B. Bird, Associate Curator of Archaeology at The American Museum of Natural History, New York; and two full vinyl album sized folios containing two CDs of Andean music and five of Cohen's films on the area.
