"A year before the summer of love, William Gedney reached San Francisco while on a Guggenheim Fellowship to photograph, "aspects of our culture which I believe significant and which I hope will become, in time, part of the record of American history." The photos in A Time of Youth, taken between October 1966 and January 1967, document the restlessness and intertwined lives of disenfranchised youth that had migrated from all over the country to what would become the very epicenter of the 1960s counterculture. While Gedney's images have been exhibited and celebrated in recent years, to date, few people have seen Gedney's books. In addition to the thousands of images and prints Gedney made throughout his career, between 1967 and 1982 he conceived, designed,and constructed seven unique photobooks. A Time of Youth is the first of the seven designs to be published. Additions to Gedney's design include essays by Lisa McCarty and Philip Gefter which provide historical context and illuminate Gedney's process"--
A year before 1967's famed Summer of Love, documentary photographer William Gedney set out for San Francisco on a Guggenheim Fellowship to record &;aspects of our culture which I believe significant and which I hope will become, in time, part of the visual record of American history.&; A Time of Youth brings together eighty-seven of the more than two thousand photographs Gedney took in San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury neighborhood between October 1966 and January 1967. In these photographs Gedney documents the restless and intertwined lives of the disenchanted youth who flocked to what became the epicenter of 1960s counterculture. Gedney lived among these young people in their communal homes, where he captured the intimate and varied contours of everyday life: solitude and companionship, joyous celebration and somber quiet, cramped rooms and spacious parks, recreation and contemplation. In these images Gedney presents a portrait of a San Francisco counterculture that complicates popular depictions of late 1960s youth as carefree flower children. The book also includes facsimiles of handwritten descriptions of the scenes Gedney photographed, his thoughts on organizing the book, and other ephemera.
A Time of Youth brings together 89 of the more than 2000 photographs William Gedney took in San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury neighborhood between October, 1966 and January, 1967, documenting the restless and intertwined lives of the disenchanted youth who flocked to what became the epicenter of 1960s counterculture.
