Susan Meiselas: Carnival Strippers - Revisited
by Meiselas, Susan    Hoffmann, Felix    Solomon-Godeau, Abigail
(Hardcover - English - 9783969990025)
strong A new and expanded edition of Meiselas' 1976 classic, perhaps one of the most important photobooks of the postwar era strong From 1972 to 1975, Susan Meiselas spent her summers photographing women who performed striptease for small-town carnivals in New England, Pennsylvania and South Carolina. As she followed the shows from town to town, she captured the dancers on stage and off, their public performances as well as their private lives, creating a portrait both documentary and empathetic: "The recognition of this world is not the invention of it.wanted to present an account of the girl show that portrayed whatsaw and revealed how the people involved f ..

Robert Frank: The Americans
by Frank, Robert    Kerouac, Jack   
(Hardcover - English - 9783865215840)
strong First published in France in 1958, then in the United States in 1959, Robert Frank's The Americans changed the course of 20th-century photography strong First published in France in 1958, then in the United States in 1959, Robert Frank's The Americans changed the course of twentieth-century photography. In 83 photographs, Frank looked beneath the surface of American life to reveal a people plagued by racism, ill-served by their politicians and rendered numb by a rapidly expanding culture of consumption. Yet he also found novel areas of beauty in simple, overlooked corners of American life. And it was not just Frank's subject matter--cars, jukeboxes a ..

Saul Leiter: Early Black and White
by Leiter, Saul    Harrison, Martin   
(Hardcover - English - 9783865214133)
The distinctive iconography of Saul Leiter's early black-and-white photographs stems from his profound response to the dynamic street life of New York City in the late 1940s and 50s. While this technique borrowed aspects of the photo-documentary, Leiter's imagery was more shaped by his highly individual reactions to the people and places he encountered. Like a Magic Realist with a camera, Leiter absorbed the mystery of the city and poignant human experiences. Together with Early Color, also published by Steidl, the two volumes comprising Early Black and White show the impressive range of Leiter's early photography. ..

(Hardcover - English - 9783969990940)
strong A nuanced profile, in image and text, of the great Black Power leader at the exhilarating moment of the movement's ascendancy strong Gordon Parks' 1967 Life magazine essay "Whip of Black Power" is a nuanced profile of the young, controversial civil rights leader Stokely Carmichael. As chairman of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, Carmichael gained national attention and inspired media backlash when he issued the call for Black Power in Greenwood, Mississippi, in June 1966. Parks shadowed him from the fall of 1966 to the spring of 1967, as Carmichael gave speeches, headed meetings and promoted the growing Black Power movement. Parks' photo ..

Saul Leiter: Early Color
by Leiter, Saul    Harrison, Martin   
(Hardcover - English - 9783865211392)
strong A beloved photobook classic from the pioneer of color photography strong This is a reprint of the immensely successful Early Color (2008), which presented Saul Leiter's remarkable body of color work to the public for the first time in book form. Although Edward Steichen had exhibited some of Leiter's color photography at The Museum of Modern Art in 1953, it remained virtually unknown to the world thereafter. Leiter moved to New York in 1946 to become a painter, but through his friendship with Richard Pousette-Dart he quickly recognized the creative potential of photography. Leiter continued to paint, exhibiting with Philip Guston and Willem de Kooning ..

Bruce Davidson: Circus
by Davidson, Bruce    Mack, Michael    Holmes, Sam
(Hardcover - English - 9783958290174)
One of the world's most influential photographers, Bruce Davidson takes readers inside three midcentury big tops in images that are poetic, realistic and profound. He reveals not only the swiftly vanishing cultural phenomenon of the circus, but what might be called the eternal human circus. At a three-ring show in 1958 he climbed to the top of the tent to view the performances of the famous liontamer Clyde Beatty and human cannonball Hugo Zacchini. His deeper interest lay in the daily lives of circus performers and producers--the roustabouts and riggers, and the pretty girl who rode an elephant in what was called the "spec." He also made an intimate series of a ..

Tod Papageorge: Dr. Blankman's New York: Kodachromes 1966-1967

(Hardcover - English - 9783969990629)
strong A new edition of Papageorge's 2017 photobook with enlarged images and a fresh layout strong Tod Papageorge (born 1940) produced the photographs for Dr. Blankman's New York in 1966-67, on the heels of moving into the city. Photographer friends persuaded him that he could help pay the rent by landing some magazine assignments, and that a carousel tray of slides would be the best way of convincing art directors to take a chance on him. So, often after spending a day in the streets photographing in black and white, he would put a roll of Kodachrome film in his camera on his walk home and make color pictures, in many cases of shop windows. br This reissue ..

Joel Sternfeld: Stranger Passing
by Sternfeld, Joel       
(Hardcover - English - 9783869304991)
Over a period of 15 years, Joel Sternfeld travelled across America and took portrait photographs that form, in Douglas R. Nickel's words, "an intelligent, unscientific, interpretive sampling of what Americans looked like at the century's end." Unlike historical portraits which represent significant people in staged surroundings, Sternfeld's subjects are uncannily normal: a banker having an evening meal, a teenager collecting shopping carts in a parking lot, a homeless man holding his bedding. Using August Sander's classic photograph of three peasants on their way to a dance as a starting point, Sternfeld employed a conceptual strategy that amounts to a new theor ..

Sub-tropical fever dream. With forms of nature and culture found nowhere else, Florida is unique. It is also among the most elusive and misunderstood of places. Anastasia Samoylova (born 1984) has photographed Florida on intensive road trips. Walker Evans (1903-75) photographed it over four decades. Twisting the visual clichés, these two remarkably discerning observers convey Florida's dizzying combination of fantasy and reality. Evans witnessed modern Florida emerging in the 1930s, wi ..

Robert Frank: In America
by Frank, Robert       
(Hardcover - English - 9783869307350)
Because of the importance of Robert Frank's The Americans ; because he turned to filmmaking in 1959, the same year the book appeared in the United States; and because he made very different kinds of pictures when he returned to still photography in the 1970s, most of Frank's American work of the 1950s is poorly known. This book, based on the important Frank collection at the Cantor Arts Center at Stanford University, is the first to focus on that work. Its careful sequence of 131 plates integrates 22 photographs from The Americans with more than 100 unknown or unfamiliar images to chart the major themes and pictorial strategies of Frank's work in the United Sta ..

Ernst Haas: Color Correction: 1952-1986
by Haas, Ernst    Ewing, William    Ewing, William
(Hardcover - English - 9783958290563)
Ernst Haas is one of the best-known, most prolific and most published photographers of the 20th century. He is famed for his vibrant color style, which, for decades, was much in demand by the illustrated press. This work, published in the most influential magazines in Europe and America, also produced a constant stream of books, and these too enjoyed great popularity. But although his color work earned him international fame, in recent decades it has been derided as "overly commercial" or not sufficiently "serious." Yet there was a side of Haas' work almost entirely hidden from view: parallel to his commissioned work, he made images independently, images far mor ..
