ROBIN WILLIAMS: A SINGULAR PORTRAIT
Book ID/图书代码： 07633016B88568
English Summary/英文概要： I had always thought that when I was around 84 and Robin was 80 we could collaborate on a book about the golden years of his career where he could look at my photographs and reminisce about the events and his feelings at the time. Unfortunately, that book was never to be . . . .Photographer Arthur Grace first met Robin Williams in April 1986, at a comedy club in Pittsburgh where Williams was working to polish what would eventually become his award-winning special “Evening at the Met”. The two hit it off immediately, and thus blossomed a close friendship that carried them through their increasingly successful careers. Told through a series of stunning photographs of Williams taken by Grace over the course of this decades-long partnership, Robin Williams: A Singular Portrait offers a touching and up-close look at the real Robin Williams—the manic and happy, the pensive and weary, the engaged and disengaged, a true portrait of one of America’s greatest comics and most beloved actors.
For the millions of people around the globe that Robin Williams has touched, these images, more than 150 photographs, a glorious mixture of stunning color and resonating black and white presented in exhibit format, will be something to embrace and cherish, not simply because of their exclusivity, but because of their intimacy and their honesty.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 我一直在想当我84岁的时候，罗宾80岁，我们可以合作写一部传记，记录他事业的黄金年代，然后他看着我拍摄的照片，回忆那些过往和他当时的感受。但不幸的，永远都不会有这样一本书了......
摄影师阿瑟•格雷斯第一次遇到罗宾•威廉姆斯的时候是1986年的4月，在皮茨伯格的一间戏剧俱乐部里面，威廉姆斯正在润色自己的作品“夜间相遇”，后来这部作品屡获殊荣。阿瑟和罗宾一见如故，成为了非常亲近的朋友，并互相扶持着达到了事业的高峰期。《罗宾•威廉姆斯》中一系列由阿瑟拍摄的威廉姆斯肖像见证了两人几十年的友谊，并让读者近距离地认识了真正的罗宾•威廉姆斯，这个集狂躁与快乐、忧郁与疲惫、忙碌与悠闲于一身的美国最伟大的也是最受人爱戴的喜剧演员。
对于全球几百万罗宾•威廉姆斯的粉丝来说，这150多幅照片，有些是彩色的，有些是令人感怀的黑白照，都是倍感珍惜和喜爱的，不仅仅是因为它们是独一无二的，而且是真实而近距离的。（XAT）
