WISH YOU WERE HERE, JIMMY DEAN
James Dean recalled in words and pictures Hard to Find Out of Print Book by Martin Dauber James Dean's image is ever with us: artists inspired by his memory have painted im in every medium, his face has appeared on postcards, posters, T-shirts and advertisements and his likeness is seen on screenprints (including some by Andy Warhol) and paintings that hang in galleries around the world. Why did his brief existence and his three film career have so potent an effect on these artists, and on the many commentators whose words are quoted here, some of whom knew him and others who did not? This book, the first biography of Dean to abandon film stills and be totally illustrated with original artwork, most of it never previously published, examines the Dean persona from a new angle. The famous face is here in all its guises - sad, shy, vulnerable, sullen, rebellious, mixed up - and the words of such personalities as Elia Kazan, Elvis Presley, Alan Ladd, Natalie Wood, Paul Newman, Alec Guiness, Mick Jagger, Elizabeth Taylor and Marlon Brando throw further light on tha mercurial temperament. The book is prefaced with an account of Dean's short life and career by the book's compiler, Martin Dawber, a Principal Lecturer at Liverpool Polytechnic's School of Art and Design and a journalist specializing in fashion.
