Harry Ransom Center The Making of Gone With The Wind By Steve Wilson Foreword by Robert Osborne

Gone With The Wind is one of the most popular movies of all time. To commemorate its seventy-fifth anniversary in 2014, The Making of Gone With The Wind presents more than 600 items from the archives of David O. Selznick, the film’s producer, and his busi- ness partner John Hay “Jock” Whitney, which are housed at the Harry Ransom Center at the University of Texas at Austin. These rarely seen materials, which are also being featured in a major 2014 exhibition at the Ransom Center, offer fans and film historians alike a must-have behind-the-camera view of the production of this classic. Before a single frame of film was shot, Gone With The Wind was embroiled in controversy. There were serious concerns about how the film would depict race and violence in the Old South during the Civil War and Reconstruction. While Clark Gable was almost everyone’s choice to play Rhett Butler, there was no clear fa- vorite for Scarlett O’Hara. And then there was the huge challenge of turning Marga- ret Mitchell’s Pulitzer Prize–winning epic into a manageable screenplay and producing it at a reasonable cost. The Making of Gone With The Wind tells these and other surprising stories with fascinating items from the Selznick archive, including

This inside view of the decisions and creative choices that shaped the production reaffirm that Gone With The Wind is perhaps the quintessential film of Hollywood’s Golden Age and illustrate why it remains influential and controversial decades after it was released.

Aaron Siskind Aaron Siskind Introduction by Gilles Mora Text by Charles Traub

Rights: Editions Hazan controls all

The first true retrospective of a towering figure in Ameri- can photography and the only book on Aaron Siskind currently in print, this volume features important, rarely published work and an authoritative text by noted photo historian Gilles Mora

Aaron Siskind (1903–1991) was a major figure in the history of American photography. A leading documentary photographer who was active in the New York Photo League in the 1930s, Siskind moved beyond the social realism of his early work as he increasingly came to view photography as a visual language of signs, metaphors, and symbols—the equivalent of poetry and music. Through the forties and fifties, he developed new techniques to photograph details and frag- ments of ordinary, commonplace materials. This radical new work transformed Siskind’s image-making from straight photography to abstraction, from documentation to expressive art. His concern with shape, line, gesture, and the picture plane prompted immediate com- parison with abstract expressionist painting, particularly with the art of Franz Kline and Robert Motherwell. It took some years for Siskind’s unprecedented photography to gain full acceptance, but, by the 1970s, he was an acknowledged master, publishing and exhibiting widely. Aaron Siskind presents the first complete retrospective of this legendary photographer. It highlights important, rarely published San Luis Potosi 16 (1956)

In the tradition of Bruce Davidson’s and Helen Levitt’s street photography in New York City, Bronx Boys cap- tures the violence, resilience, and hope of young men growing up in what was one of the toughest and most dangerous neighborhoods in the United States

Bronx Boys By Stephen Shames Text by Martin Dones and José “Poncho” Muñoz

A 1977 assignment for Look magazine took Stephen Shames to the Bronx, where he began photographing a group of boys coming of age in what was at the time one of the toughest and most dangerous neighborhoods in the United States. The Bronx boys lived on streets ravaged by poverty, drugs, violence, and gangs in an adolescent “family” they created for protection and compan- ionship. Shames’s profound empathy for the boys earned their trust, and over the next two-plus de- cades, as the crack cocaine epidemic devastated the neighborhood, they allowed him extraordinary access into their lives on the street and in their homes and “crews.” Shames’s photo essay captures the brutality of the times—the fights, shootings, arrests, and drug deals— that eventually left many of the young men he photographed dead or in jail. But he also records the joy and human- ity of the Bronx boys, who mature, fall in love, and have children of their own. One young man Shames mentored, Martin Dones, provides riveting details of living in the Bronx and get- ting caught up in violence and drugs before caring adults helped him turn his life around. Challenging our perceptions of a neighborhood that is too easily dismissed as irredeemable, Bronx Boys shows us that hope can survive on even the meanest streets.

Set in wild and woolly Texas and in the 1880s, this engrossing tale of a boy’s search for his missing Mom- ma is as full of colorful characters, folk wit and wisdom, and unexpected turns of events as the great American quest novel Adventures of Huckleberry Finn

The Devil’s Backbone By Bill Wittliff Illustrated by Jack Unruh

The last the boy Papa saw of his Momma, she was galloping away on her horse Precious in the saddle her father took from a dead Mexican officer after the Battle of San Jacinto, fleeing from his Daddy, Old Karl, a vicious, tight-fisted horse trader. Momma’s flight sets Papa on a relentless quest to find her that thrusts him and his scrappy little dog Fritz into adventures all across the wild and woolly Hill Country of Central Texas, down to Mexico, and even into the realm of the ghostly “Shimmery Peo- ple.” In The Devil’s Backbone, master storyteller Bill Wittliff takes readers on an exciting journey through a rough 1880s frontier as full of colorful characters and unexpected turns of events as the great Ameri- can quest novel Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Wittliff grew up listening to stories and memories like these in his own family, and in this imaginative novel, they come to vivid life, creating an engross- ing story of a Texas Huck Finn that brims with folk wisdom and sly humor. A rogue’s gallery of charac- ters thwart and aid Papa’s path. His adventures draw him ever nearer to a mysterious cave that haunts his dreams—an actual cave that he discovers at last in the canyons of the Devil’s Backbone—but will he find Momma before Old Karl finds him?

Miguel Covarrubias Drawing a Cosmopolitan Line

Georgia O’Keeffe Museum Edited by Carolyn Kastner With essays by Carolyn Kastner, Alicia Inez Guzmán, Khristaan D. Villela, and Janet Catherine Berlo Foreword by Robert A. Kret

Miguel Covarrubias enjoyed transcultural encounters and exchanges in the cosmopolitan centers of Mexico City, New York, and Europe, where he met and exchanged ideas in a global network of modernists. Famous for his caricature studies, he was also an accomplished painter, set designer, and book illustrator. Less well known are his consummate skills as an art historian, cura- tor, cartographer, ethnographer, and documentary filmmaker, as well as his direction of programs in museum studies, dance, and the excavation of cultural sites in Mexico. Miguel Covarrubias: Drawing a Cosmopolitan Line, the catalogue of an exhibition at the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum, establishes the importance of Covarrubias’s broad-ranging and significant contributions to modern art. The book includes an extensive selection of compositions in graphite, watercolor, and oil paint, as well as illustrations from his scholarly publications. Four accompanying essays consider Covarrubias’s lifelong habit of moving between modern cities and remote sites of ancient cul- Above: Diego, Frida, and Miguel, Tizapán, San Ángel, Nickolas Muray (1940). tures, which engendered a strong cosmopolitanism in his work; his role Universidad de las Américas. © Nickolas Muray Photo Archive.

Presenting the first comprehensive art historical study of some magnificent Mesoamerican murals, this book dem- onstrates how generations of ancient Mexican artists, patrons, and audiences created a powerful statement of communal identity that still captures the imagination

The Murals of Cacaxtla The Power of Painting in Ancient Central Mexico

By Claudia Lozoff Brittenham Foreword by María Teresa Uriarte

Between AD 650 and 950, artists at the small Central Mexican city-state of Cacaxtla covered the walls of their most im- portant sacred and public spaces with dazzling murals of gods, his- torical figures, and supernatural creatures. Testimonies of a richly interconnected ancient world, the Cacaxtla paintings present an unexpectedly deep knowledge of the art and religion of the Maya, Zapotec, and other dis- tant Mesoamerican peoples. Painted during a period of war and shifting alliances after the fall of Teotihuacan, the murals’ distinctive fusion of cosmopolitan styles and subjects claimed a powerful identity for the belea- guered city-state. Presenting the first cohesive, art historical study of the entire painting corpus, The Murals of Cacaxtla dem- onstrates that these magnificent works of art constitute a sustained and local painting tradition, treasured by generations of patrons and painters. Exhaustive chap- ters on each of the mural programs make it possible to see how the Cacaxtla painting tradition developed over time, responding to political and artistic challenges. Lavishly illustrated, The Murals of Cacaxtla illumi- nates the agency of ancient artists and the dynamics of artistic synthesis in a Mesoamerican context, offering a Structure A, south jamb.

Architectural Vessels of the Moche Ceramic Diagrams of Sacred Space in Ancient Peru

By Juliet b. Wiersema

Elaborately decorated monumental architecture, royal tombs, and ritual human sacrifice have established the Moche of ancient Peru (AD 200–800) as a culturally rich and ideologically complex civilization. Because the Moche did not have a text-based writing system, their sophisticated works of art, which communi- cated complex concepts, specific ideas, and detailed narratives, have become a prime source for understanding the Moche worldview. This pioneering volume presents the first book-length study of one JULIET b.

They teach their kids the best stomping grounds, how to walk a particularly rocky trail. Gitana says that to discuss Pure Luck’s terroir, you must hold close to their cultural reality, the family inheritance of the land, both for the people and the goats. ★ Amelia married Ben Sweethardt in 2007.

With twenty-three new portraits, including John Graves, Richard Linklater, Joel Osteen, and Cat Osterman, as well as updated profiles of all of the subjects, here is the face of Texas captured in the faces of noteworthy Texans by one of America’s premier portrait photographers

The Face of Texas Photographs by Michael O’Brien With stories by Elizabeth O’Brien

The Face of Texas celebrates the individuality and inde- pendent spirit of Texas through compelling portraits of its people by Michael O’Brien, one of America’s premier portrait photogra- phers. In this acclaimed photo essay, he assembles a gallery of noteworthy Texans, ranging from former president George W. Bush and first ladies Laura Bush and Lady Bird Johnson, to famous figures such as Willie Nelson, Larry McMurtry, George Strait, Tim Duncan, Kinky Friedman, and Beyoncé, to ordi- nary folks who’ve made their mark on Texas as ranchers, cheerleaders, church members, bar owners, Odd Fellows, schoolteachers, writers, and athletes. For this new edition of The Face of Texas, O’Brien has added seventeen new portraits and six updated photo- graphs of people from the first edition. Writer and former Life reporter Eliza- beth O’Brien offers insightful vignettes to accompany the new portraits and also brings us up to date with the lives of the rest of the subjects. This winning combination of images and Stephanie Kuehne stories is an essential addition to every Texas bookshelf.
