À propos de ce produit

Product Information

First published in France in 1958, then the United States in 1959, Robert Frank's The Americans changed the course of twentieth-century photography. In eighty-three 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 his subject matter - cars, jukeboxes, and even the road itself - that redefined the icons of America; it was also his seemingly intuitive, immediate, off-kilter style, as well as his method of brilliantly linking his photographs together thematically, conceptually, formally, and linguistically, that made The Americans so innovative. More of an ode or a poem than a literal document, the book is as powerful and provocative today as it was fifty-five years ago.

Reviews
His work is revolutionary in showing an America that was not seen, but also creating a way of seeing in photography that was new, powerful and charged., The photographs from his seminal book The Americans, which took a critical look at our nation's life in the 1950s, are timeless. His work continues to inspire new generations to follow his path to see what is invisible in America., ...Robert Frank changed history with the 83 images that appeared in his stark breakthrough " The Americans ., The exhibition is as comprehensive as it is ephemeral featuring a wealth of photographs, all of Frank's books since 1947, and his films that he began focusing on in the early 1960s., I can't think of a single living artist who has as secure a status in his or her chosen field, and I doubt there will be one for some time., That is the miracle of great socially committed art: It addresses our sources of deepest unease, helps us to confront what we cannot organize or explain by making all of it unforgettable., The Americans challenged the presiding midcentury formula for photojournalism. Mr. Frank's photographs -- of lone individuals, teenage couples, groups at funerals and odd spoors of cultural life -- were cinematic, immediate, off-kilter and grainy, like early television transmissions of the period., [Frank] pioneered a whole new subject matter that we [now] define as icons: cars, jukeboxes, even the road itself.

Avis les plus pertinents

  • The Americans – A Photographic Classic for the Ages

    I saw this book 35 years ago at Northern IL University School of Design – it blew me away then and even more today. Robert Frank is a true artist with the lens and he captures the mood of America in 1955 perfectly. A great addition to anyones "art" library. Kerouac's intro is a great bonus!

  • unimpressive content

    This book is highly overrated and the contents seem to be more of pictures that should of been overlooked for a better angle of the subject.
