Produktbeschreibungen
From Library Journal
Evans (1903-75) began photographing in 1927, joined Time in 1945, later became editor at Fortune , and ended his career as a professor of graphic design at Yale. The body of work he produced in half a century distinguishes him as one of the most important and influential 20th-century American photographers. This is not the first book to present Evans's work retrospectively, but this is certainly the most comprehensive. Mora ( Walker Evans: Havana 1933 , Pantheon, 1989) and Hill (Evans's friend and executor of his estate) provide concise and readable biographical and interpretive essays accompanied by exquisite reproductions. The photo groups are arranged chronologically, with essays introducing each project or period in Evans's life. Topics range from the Brooklyn Bridge to his work for the Farm Security Administration--including his famous photographs for James Agee's Let Us Now Praise Famous Men --to the Museum of Modern Art exhibition "American Photographs," reproduced in exact sequence and relative size. Highly recommended for photography and photographic history collections.

Great Book
18. August 2005
Format:Taschenbuch
This book is very informative of Walker Evans. It shows a wide variety of his work form portraiture to architecture, from the streets of New York to exotic places. It not only shows the works of art but also shows short blurbs about the place he was at and what was happening in his life; like why he was there and what he wanted out of the photo shoot.
The part I like best about this book is that it references whose work he was admiring at the time. It also references his feelings, whether it was something he hated or something that was inspiring him. The print of the book is also very representational. It shows in great detail the contrast and depth of the works of art. I give the book 5 stars. I really enjoyed reading the book.

paperback size is TOO small
1. Juni 2009
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
The version I bought is the paperback version. It's way too small a format to see the photos, much less the print. While the photos are well printed and look good (and why wouldn't they at this teeny tiny size?) I can't say I'm appreciating the book; buy the larger version.
