Wedding
Cambridge, MA: Harvard University/The Carpenter Center for Visual Arts, 1976. 1st Edition. Oblong quarto, publisher’s stiff photo-illustrated paper wraps.
Catalog published in conjunction with an exhibition of wedding photography curated by Barbara P. Norfleet, at Harvard’s Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts, in 1976. A photographer, curator, and social scientist, Norfleet gathered vernacular, studio, and social documentary images to explore the event of a wedding not just as a private rite but as a public performance of class, gender, costume, and American aspiration. Illustrated with black-and-white plates; text by Norfleet. Light toning and edgewear to wraps. Very good. Item #12828
