106 pp.; 28.1 x 21.4 cm.; sewn bound; black-and-white & color; edition size unknown; unsigned and unnumbered; offset-printed Collection of nude photographs of women by James Baes, Peter Gert, Helmut Newton, Garry Gross, William Jolitz, Stephen Anderson, Ron Mesaros, Dick Zimmerman, Antonin Kratochvil, Christian Vogt, Guido Mangold, Jeanloup Sieff, Keeling/Robert. Each photographer's portfolio prefaced by introductory text. Includes Garry Gross's suggestive photograph of an adolescent Brooke Shields (which Richard Prince appropriated in 1983 for his work, "Spiritual America") and other "little girls." "Garry's premise in creating them was simply to demonstrate his feeling that a little girl often projects an identifiable sensuality, into which she grows as she becomes a woman. Obviously, a child's and woman's expressions of that sensuality will differ, but Garry is intrigued by the fact that it so clearly exists in both: inside that little girl there's a sexy woman hiding. -- from the text on the photographer.

Dust jacket in Fair condition with edges tattered with small losses along folded edges, top, and bottom of spine, and scattered abrasions to jacket. Jacket now protected in archival mylar.

[12] pp.; 16 x 11.5 cm.; staple bound; color; edition size unknown; offset-printed Small artist's book culminating in two infamous nude photographs of Brooke Shields, then the age of 10. One of these images became the basis of Richard Prince's 1983 work "Spiritual America." "I went back to my apartment on E.12th St. and hurriedly opened the envelope. The small publication was in fact called? 'Little Women'. And in it, contained several images of young girls made up to look older. (All of the girls were around nine, ten and dressed and styled to look around eighteen). Some of them looked like 'tarts.' I didn't really have much of a reaction paging through the book. I didn't understand why Gross would think that these kinds of images would help promote his business. (Then again I didn't know what business Gross was promoting). I turned the pages and there it was on the second to the last page. There was Brooke standing in a tub completely naked with her arms outstretched like she was Jesus on the cross? her boy body oiled and shiny, with just the tiniest bit of make-up on her cheeks and rouge on her lips. The image hit me. It was 'alive.' Where did it come from? Who was its maker? It wasn't born. It was fully formed. There was no history to the image, no future. Independent and on its own? free from any and all authorship. It was as if the 'look' on Brooke's face knew secrets I would never begin to understand. She knew. What did she know? It didn't matter. It was enough to know that this photograph knew everything." -- Richard Prince, from transcription of lecture delivered at ICP, New York, April 2, 2014, Reference : "Spiritual America : The Catalog 1983 - 1984" by Sandra Schulman, Walter Robinson, Richard Prince, Kim Fine. : Slink Productions, 2015.
