Text engl. - The book offers a unique opportunity to trace the life and complex art of the 19th century photographer. This book places his entire body of work – both artistic and technical – in the context of one of the most transformative periods of American and European history. Published to accompany a retrospective exhibition organized by the Corcoran Gallery of Art, this catalogue authorsinvestigate a variety of new ways to understand and interpret Muybridge’s art and influences. Born in England, Muybridge (1830–1904) moved in his early twenties to the United States, where he was soon drawn to the dramatic Western landscape. After a stagecoach accident, during a long convalescence in England, he learned photography. Returning to San Francisco in 1867, he soon earned his reputation photographing both the landscape and urban development of the West. Muybridge is best known for this inventive work and his massive atlas of stop-action motion studies, Animal Locomotion, first published in 1887. (From publisher’s text).

Text engl., dt., fr.- Other edition: Abridges and in smaller format: Köln Taschen 2014. - This edition incl. a complete reprint of „The attitudes of animals in motion“ (in its original - e.g. at the Library of Congress - a very rare book published in a very small, undated edition [1881], and which has not been reprinted before), and of Muybridge’s well-known but in its entirety - all 781 plates - rare work „Animal locomotion“ (1887). - Book review excerpts according to Taschen’s press releases: „Der opulente Bildband widmet sich ganz der vermeintlichen Aura einer absoluten Objektivität, die Muybridge der Fotografie verlieh.“ (Die Märkische, Potsdam). “Historia del movimiento. Mucho más de lo que su aporte científico podría significar. Y es algo que se aprecia con sólo hojear la edición de este libro con buena parte de sus trabajos de cronofotografía, con la intención de documentar la descomposición del movimiento. … Aunque la edición de este libro sea inglés francés y alemán, la amplia colección de imágenes reunidas lo convierten en un libro deseable y hasta inagotable.” (Babelia, El País, Madrid). "The Complete Locomotion Photographs d’Hans-Christian Adam Muybridge (1830-1904) fait date dans l’histoire de la photographie: grâce à une intervention d’une machinerie complexe, il décompose en de multiples images les mouvements de l’animal comme de l’homme. Cet énorme album reproduit l’intégralité de deux livres du photographe, Animal Locomotion et The Attitudes of Animal in Motion: des séries qu’on apprécie aujourd’hui plus pour leur poésie surannée que pour leur valeur scientifique. En complément, une biographie détaillée." (Le Monde des Beaux Livres, Paris). „Lucian Freud’s old friend Francis Bacon was one of many artists much influenced by Eadweard Muybridge, the subject of Hans Christian Adam’s Eadweard Muybridge: The Human and Animal Locomotion Photographs (Taschen). If you run his photographs in rapid succession, you can see our great-great-grandparents in the nude come jerkily to life. It’s a strangely touching sight.” (Bloomberg.com). Der englische Photograph Eadweard Muybridge war ein Pionier der Bewegungsstudien von Mensch und Tier. Im Jahr 1872 erlangte er Berühmtheit, als er eine Wette zugunsten des früheren kalifornischen Gouverneurs Leland Stanford entschied, indem er ein Pferd in vollem Galopp photographierte. Muybridge hatte nämlich eine komplexe Anordnung für Serienaufnahmen mit sehr kurzen Verschlusszeiten erfunden und konnte so erstmals nachweisen, dass bei einem galoppierenden Pferd alle vier Hufe für einen Sekundenbruchteil in der Luft schweben. In den nächsten drei Jahrzehnten arbeitete Muybridge weiter an seinem Projekt, zahlreiche Aspekte der Bewegung von Mensch und Tier vollständig zu erfassen. Hierzu schuf er Hunderte Aufnahmen von Pferden und anderen Tieren - und von nackten oder leicht bekleideten Personen bei diversen Aktivitäten wie Laufen, Gehen, Boxen, Fechten oder Hinabsteigen einer Treppe (die letztgenannte Studie inspirierte Marcel Duchamp 1912 zu seinem berühmten Gemälde). Dieser Band verfolgt Leben und Werk Muybridges von seinen frühen Theorien über Anatomie und Bewegung bis zu seinen späten photographischen Experimenten. Sämtliche 781 Tafeln von Muybridges bahnbrechendem Werk Animal Locomotion (1887) sind hier reproduziert. Ergänzt wird dies durch den ebenfalls vollständigen Nachdruck von Muybridges äußerst seltenem ersten Album The Attitudes of Animals in Motion (1881). Eine detaillierte Chronologie des britischen Muybridge-Biografen Stephen Herbert wirft neues Licht auf einen der wichtigsten Pioniere der Photographie. - Vgl. Buchbesprechnungen in DHPH Intern 1.2011 (http://www.dgph.de/presse_news/aktuellebuecher). “Eadweard Muybridge (1830-1904) was a photographic pioneer; famed for his stop-motion studies of human and animal locomotion…As well as lecturing extensively Muybridge published his photographic studies in books such as The Horse in Motion (1878) Animal Locomotion (1887) and The Human Figure in Motion (1901). Although the scientific value of his work has been disputed, there is no doubt of his lasting influence on artists from Degas to Francs Bacon. Choreographers too have found him a source of inspiration, drawn to his sequences of pure, frozen movement…Muybridge’s images have a wonderful way of revealing the physicality of movement –suddenly, you see the trust of motion. Some sequences capture the body at an acute angle, or with the weight so far ahead of itself is has to go forward – there’s no possibility of return.. Muybridge’s photographs reveal the extremity in the most unexceptional of actions: simply walking or running. There are certain moments when you see them laid out in front of you – it is quite wonderful. You can only observe this if you slow them down or stop the movement…To my surprise when u look at the series about human movement, the dancers are actually the least interesting. With the ‘fancy’ dancer – and also with Muybridge’s nudes – you sense a self consciousness in the model – that seems to inhibit the movement. When the model sees himself from the outside movement doesn’t quite move the same way – the second you think about it, you become self-conscious and freeze. You have to invest you attention in something else for the movement to be spontaneous and full-blooded, to reveal itself; it can be the simplest of tasks like walking, running, jumping, throwing. Would motion studies of ballet dancing be more compelling than the ‘fancy dancing’? Perhaps, if Muybridge had captured a full bodied leap…Ballet is only truly interesting when the dancers move – otherwise it’s only a series of 19th-century poses. Lovely as an image, perhaps, but it’s not what gives us a kick. We wouldn’t go unless they moved…the most interesting Muybridge studies remind us that movement is a force, not just an action performed by a body…the body suddenly looks strangely unfamiliar and imbued with a tremendous force and a power. You see a flash of an unimagined potential you wouldn’t see when encountering the action or the body in flesh.” (Kim Brandstrup, Royal Ballet choreographer, Dance Gazette, Royal Academy of Dance, London). “La apuesta que cambió la fotografía. Un libro sobre Muybridge recuerda cómo este pionero abuelo del efecto Matrix captó por primera vez las fases de la carrera de un caballo. (…) Así desde sus primeras ideas sobre anatomía y movimiento hasta sus últimos experimentos fotográficos, la obra editada por Taschen reproduce al completo las 781 láminas del rompedor Animal Locomotion (1887). ” (Grupo Vocento, Madrid). „Serienbilder von Mensch und Tier in vielerlei Bewegung machten Muybridge zum Pionier der Wissenschaftsfotografie und waren Vorläufer des Films. Dieser Band zeigt Hunderte seiner als Kunstwerke noch immer faszinierenden Bildreihen.“ (Vogue, München). “Muybridge was the first person to recognise the potential for photography to convey movement, speed and vitality and produced a plethora of fabulous images of man and beast racing around.” (The Independent, London). „Wer sich für die Geschichte der Fotografie interessiert, stößt früher oder später auf Eadweard Muybridge. … Ein sagenhafter 804-Seiten-starker Bildband mit spannenden bis amüsanten Einblicken.“ (DigitalPhoto, Kiel). "... Cominciamo da questo libro-meraviglia in formato orizzontale dedicato a Muybridge cronofotografo (1830-1904), figura di primo piano della storia della fotografia. ... Rivelò quello che l'occhio umano non poteva cogliere: una verità che nessun pittore dell'epoca avrebbe osato rappresentare anche se vi fosse mai riuscito, come spiega Adam nella sua lunga introduzione. ... Muybridge ... prefigurò l'avvento del cinematografo. La meraviglia del reale nel cinema ... la meraviglia dell'irreale nel fumetto ... La verginità dello sguardo, in due opposti." (Internazionale, Roma). „[...] le récent ouvrage sur Muybridge, une pure merveille [...]“. (Connaissance des arts, Paris). All sources cited from Taschen press releases.
