From 1915 to 1975 he created photographs that continue to deepen in value and intensity...They show us that abstract qualities are implanted there by culture.

As in all great art, the photographs of Paul Strand transcend their own immediacy, a feat of eloquence that makes their presence enduring." --Mark... read more --This text refers to the Hardcover edition. Book Description "So finally, it can be seen that what I have explored all my life is the world on my doorstep...The artist's world is limitless. It can be found everywhere, far from where he lives or a few feet away." --Paul Strand From 1950 to 1976 Paul Strand and his wife Hazel traveled throughout Italy, France, the Outer Hebrides, Egypt, Morocco, Ghana, and Romania, creating work that changed the way we look at photographs. Paul Strand: The World on My Doorstep honors this important photographer by collecting the finest images from his later years. Catherine Duncan-writer, artist, close family friend-provides an intimate biographical memoir that explores Strand's creative life and methods. Ute Eskildsen, photographic curator of the Museum Folkwang, in Essen, Germany, contributes an essay on Strand's portraits and landscapes. The sum is a penetrating, human portrait of Paul Strand at the height of his photographic power. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition. |
