Estimate: £1,200-1,800 Lot 210, First human-taken photograph of the Planet Earth, December 21-27, 1968. WILLIAM ANDERS [APOLLO 8]. Estimate: £3,000-5,000 ONLINE: From 6 to 20 November 2020, Christie’s Voyage To Another World: The Victor Martin- Malburet Photograph Collection will present 700 lots, comprising approximately 2,400 vintage original photographs showcasing the artistic heritage of the golden age of space exploration when NASA, and its astronaut-photographers, captured the first forays into space and onto the surface of another world. The collection is the most comprehensive private collection of NASA photographs ever presented at auction, and spans every visual milestone of the space program, from the early days of Mercury, the technical advances of Gemini and Lunar Orbiter, to the triumphs of Apollo. Alongside the iconic images, Voyage to Another World boasts photographs which were not released by NASA at the time of the missions. With estimates ranging from £800 to £30,000, the sale offers collectors across the globe a unique opportunity to acquire a universal moment in the history of mankind. In a time when photography was still analogue, requiring light- sensitive chemistry, film and photographic papers, the astronauts were instructed by NASA, Hasselblad, Kodak, Zeiss specialists and by Life and National Geographic photographers such as Ralph Morse and Dean Conger.

  • Art at Arm's Length: a History of the Selfie
    Art at Arm’s Length: A History of the Selfie Author: JERRY SALTZ Date: January 26, 2014 Source: http://www.vulture.com/2014/01/history-of-the-selfie.html The first selfie? Parmigianino’s Self-Portrait in a Convex Mirror, 1523–24. 1. Defining a new form. We live in the age of the selfie. A fast self-portrait, made with a smartphone’s camera and immediately distributed and inscribed into a network, is an instant visual communication of where we are, what we’re doing, who we think we are, and who we think is watching. Selfies have changed aspects of social interaction, body language, self-awareness, privacy, and humor, altering temporality, irony, and public behavior. It’s become a new visual genre—a type of self-portraiture formally distinct from all others in history. Selfies have their own structural autonomy. This is a very big deal for art. Genres arise relatively rarely. Portraiture is a genre. So is still-life, landscape, animal painting, history painting. (They overlap, too: A portrait might be in a seascape.) A genre possesses its own formal logic, with tropes and structural wisdom, and lasts a long time, until all the problems it was invented to address have been fully addressed. (Genres are distinct from styles, which come and go: There are Expressionist portraits, Cubist portraits, Impressionist portraits, Norman Rockwell portraits. Style is the endless variation within genre.) These are not like the self-portraits we are used to. Setting aside the formal dissimilarities between these two forms—of framing, of technique—traditional photographic self-portraiture is far less spontaneous and casual than a selfie is.

  • A Bad Moon Rising
    A Bad Moon Rising Maarten Dings Joachim Naudts A BAD MOON RISING On 21 July 1969, at 2.56 a.m. UTC, Neil Alden Armstrong became the first man to set foot on the moon after a four-day flight. That same day, Eddy Merckx won his first Tour de France. The single ‘Space Oddity’ had been released ten days earlier and people were listening to David Bowie sing: ‘And the papers want to know whose shirt you wear. Now it’s time to leave the capsule if you dare.’ Millions of people held their breath as Armstrong and Aldrin took a giant leap some 400,000 kilometres away. Buzz Eugene Aldrin, the second man to exit the capsule, recounted that the moon walk wasn’t as hard as he’d previously imagined. The Lunar Lander did not sink into a metres-deep layer of moon dust that had been accumulating for billions of years due to the lack of an atmosphere, as a NASA employee had speculated in 1955. ‘For one priceless moment in the whole history of man, all the people on this earth are truly one. One in their pride at what you have done and one in our prayers that you will return safely to earth.’ Cartoon on the front page of the De Standaard newspaper – 22 July 1969 President Nixon addressed the astronauts that same day and delivered a rousing and pathos-filled speech. A new era had begun. The moon landing resembled the unreal apotheosis of a last wave of optimism, one that the world was still optimistic enough to surf in the late 1960s.
