The volume is illustrated with examples from all of Levinthal's major series to date--including \u003ci\u003eHitler Moves East\u003c\/i\u003e (1972-75), \u003ci\u003eModern Romance\u003c\/i\u003e (1983-85), \u003ci\u003eWild West\u003c\/i\u003e (1986-89), \u003ci\u003eDesire\u003c\/i\u003e (1991-92), \u003ci\u003e Blackface\u003c\/i\u003e (1995-98), \u003ci\u003e Barbie\u003c\/i\u003e (1997-98), \u003ci\u003eBaseball\u003c\/i\u003e (1998-2004) and \u003ci\u003eHistory\u003c\/i\u003e (2010-15). Levinthal's work has been a touchstone for conversations about theories of representation in photography and contemporary art, and through his work, he has investigated the overlapping of popular imagery with personal fantasy in the contexts of romance, sex, war, history, sports, space and social stereotypes. This publication gives readers the opportunity for the first time to consider the full scope of Levinthal's career as an artist.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e George Eastman House\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/28\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780935398304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 302\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.70h x 11.30w x 1.50d","brand":"David Levinthal","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36645933088924,"sku":"9780935398304","price":42.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_76c91bc9-a996-4f3f-942e-b4ac0c06169a.jpg?v=1603862553","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/david-levinthal-war-myth-desire-9780935398304","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
