'Am I in the Picture? Am I Getting in or out of It?'

WOODMAN, Francesca. Some Disordered Interior Geometries. Philadelphia: Synapse/Visual Arts Press. 1981.

4to. Loose in the original pale pink printed wrappers after those of Esercizi graduati di geometria (see below), housed in a custom-made grey cloth box; pp. [24]; partially unopened, margins preserving printer’s crop marks; short closed tear to first leaf at head (part of unopened conjugate pair), slight marginal creasing to uncut leaves; else very good; ownership inscription ‘This is my publisher’s proof copy Suzanne Reese Horvitz’ to p. 1.

Publisher’s proof copy of the only artist’s book by American photographer Francesca Woodman (1958–1981) to be published during her lifetime, issued mere days before her suicide at the age of twenty-two, our copy inscribed by her publisher, the American artist Suzanne Reese Horvitz.

Woodman, fluent in Italian, spent a year studying in Rome (1977–1978), where she picked up a copy of this nineteenth-century Italian geometry exercise book, Esercizi graduati di geometria, at the Surrealist bookshop Maldoror and began using it as a notebook, adding in her own photographs and manuscript text. Of this process of repurposing, she wrote ‘I’ve always printed small but the photos seemed less precious and more personal when in the books… The books started to influence the work—I made my own geometries for the geometry book’ (Woodman Family Foundation, online). The anastatic copy of the notebook became Some Disordered Interior Geometries, Woodman’s only publication during her lifetime. Several of the five hundred printed copies are thought to have been distributed at her funeral, when her work was still largely unknown.

Woodman’s evocative photos feature the artist as subject, using ‘long shutter speed and double exposure when photographing so that she could actively feature in her own work. This also meant that she could capture different stages of movement, in a way that could trace the pattern of time. As a result, her image is blurred, which suggests motion and urgency’ (Tate), writing of her technique ‘Am I in the picture? I could be a ghost, an animal or a dead body, not just this girl standing on the corner’. Some Disordered Interior Geometries was perhaps Woodman’s answer to André Breton’s Nadja (1928), one of the most iconic works of the French Surrealist movement. In 1979, Woodman wrote ‘I would like words to be to my photographs what the photographs are to the text in Breton’s Nadja. He picks out all the allusions and enigmatic details of some rather ordinary unmysterious snapshots and elaborates them into a story. I’d like my photographs to condense experience’.

Provenance: With the ownership inscription of Suzanne Reese Horvitz, co-founder of the Synapse Press (publishers of the present work) in 1980.

Well build and functions nicely
The products build quality is excellent; in fact, its far superior to this product's competitor, "Batdiary". This mount stays locked in place when i use one hand to mount my phone or remove it. Also, the internal mechanism is much nicer than the Batdiary one and feels like it has tighter and more accurate machining tolerances which should prevent it from rattling like its competitor's did after a couple weeks use. I highly recommend this product, it is worth the high price tag!

Buy once, cry once
This Offroam phone mount is not the cheapest option, but it is easily the most functional and sturdy one available, especially for second-generation Toyota Tacomas. I went through several plastic phone mounts before this and should have bought this one from the start to save both money and frustration. Installation was very simple, and it is even easier to use day to day. I like that this mount uses adjustable arms to grip the phone rather than relying on MagSafe. It keeps my phone secure even on rough terrain and offers plenty of flexibility for positioning the phone exactly where you want it.

Top notch mount with high build quality
I love it when I take a chance and spend some extra money hoping for a quality product - and it actually pans out. I bought this for my 2nd gen Toyota Tacoma (2014). The install was fast. Instructions were clear. The mount is ROCK solid and has two points of articulation so I can position my phone well. I couldn't ask for a better product. The price I paid was a little steep for a mount, but if you demand quality then look no further.
