Kurzbeschreibung
Sixty Years of Photographs, back in print after many years, is one of the most comprehensive surveys of the power and force of a major photographic figure of our time. Before his death in 1976, Strand spent his last days going over his photographic prints and his many books with an eye to the completion of this volume. Because of his insistence on growth and movement toward perfection throughout his career, and to be true to his vision, the editors examined over three thousand photographs, constituting the main body of the work of Strand's lifetime. This volume, which includes an insightful biographical profile by Calvin Tomkins and excerpts from Strand's correspondence, interviews, and other documents, has long been unavailable.<BR>
Synopsis
A selection of photographs taken by Paul Strand accompanied by a biographical profile written by Tomkins and extracts from the photographer's correspondence and interviews.

Valedictory for a Great Artist
31. Mai 2005
Format:Taschenbuch
PAUL STRAND: SIXTY YEARS OF PHOTOGRAPHS is an immensely successful book. Not only is it a true pleasure to renew acquaintance with the famous images of Paul Strand, it is the knowledge that Strand himself selected the images to be included in this book just before his death in 1976. Calvin Tomkins provides a sensitive and insightful history and eulogy and elected to include documents of Strand's correspondence and various writings to round out this memento mori.
But words are words and cannot begin to explain the simple, haunting beauty of the photographic images of Paul Strand. Whether the viewer's preference is for the portraits of mesmerizing faces captured in the direct simplicity of an encounter on the street or for the light sculpted landscapes or the still life images that are rich in metaphor, this collection of Strand's work is simply impeccable. The only appropriate words this reviewer can summon would be those encouraging lovers of fine art to buy this collection. It is Strand's own valedictory to an immeasurably important career. Highly recommended. Grady Harp, May 05

Very comprehensive look at Paul Strand

I used this book to prepare for a presentation on Paul Strand. I found it to be comprehensive and entertaining. I found the profile of Strand by Calvin Tompkins to be quite engaging and full of detail not found elsewhere. It also includes a nice selection of Strand's photography over the many decades he worked. His work is inspirational--I recommend this book to aspiring photographers.
All I can say is Wow!

My mentor recommended this book to me. I have seen some Paul Strand work and knew I wanted to see more. This book arrived and what a wonderful collection. To make it even better, the quality of the image printing is like having an original silver-gelatin print in my hand. It is masterfully done. And the quality of Strand's work certainly deserved this kind of high quality printing. Best surprise was that I got a brand new First Edition (marked) from Amazon.
My feeling about Strand's work is that he explored abstractions as a photographer decades before the likes of Wynn Bullock, Edward Weston, Brett Weston and others. Unbelievable work.
