A haunting and poetic document of the American underground, Photographs unveils the quiet genius of Wallace Berman visual artist, publisher, and seminal figure of the Beat generation. Though widely revered for his mixed-media and collage work, Berman’s photography reveals an equally potent and intimate vision: sun drenched portraits, still lives of ritualistic power, and candid moments that echo with the spiritual weight of California’s countercultural soul.
Shot between the 1950s and 1960s, these rarely seen images trace a hidden geography of bohemia capturing poets, artists, lovers, and drifters suspended in the hazy light of Venice Beach, Topanga Canyon, and the burgeoning L.A. art scene. More than historical record, Photographs is a deeply personal archive, meditative and timeless.
Published by RoseGallery in 2007, this first comprehensive volume collects Berman’s photographic output with tenderness and reverence. It is a vital artifact for collectors of Beat literature, West Coast mysticism, and American avant garde history.
Intermission exists in the space between documentation and devotion an ongoing archive of cultural fragments that refuse to vanish. Each title within our portfolio is selected not for trend, but for tension: between what was meant to disappear and what insists on remaining.
We work with objects that speak quietly but persistently publications, recordings, and editions that define the undercurrents of art, sound, and design. Together they form a living record of marginal brilliance, a collection that privileges significance over scale.
The Story
Intermission exists in the space between documentation and devotion an ongoing archive of cultural fragments that refuse to vanish. Each title within our portfolio is selected not for trend, but for tension: between what was meant to disappear and what insists on remaining.
We work with objects that speak quietly but persistently publications, recordings, and editions that define the undercurrents of art, sound, and design. Together they form a living record of marginal brilliance, a collection that privileges significance over scale.
Every Intermission title is handled as an artifact. We believe that preservation is an act of reverence one that begins the moment you open a cover or unspool a tape.
To experience a piece, do so slowly. Allow the air to touch the paper, let light fall softly over each page. Avoid excess pressure; handle edges rather than surfaces. Each mark, fold, or patina is part of its passage through time evidence of care rather than decay.
We encourage collectors to engage not only with the content, but with the gesture of preservation itself: a quiet commitment to memory.
