Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - A celebrated return of Robert Frank's seminal photobook The Americans to Aperture's catalog--one of the most important bodies of photographic work ever made.In the nearly seven decades since its publication in France in 1958, then in the United States in 1959, Robert Frank's The Americans has become one of the most influential and enduring works of American photography. Through eighty-three photographs taken across the country, Frank unveiled an America that had gone previously unacknowledged--confronting its people with an underbelly of racial inequality, corruption, injustice, and the stark reality of the American dream. Frank's point of view--at once startling and tenacious--is imbued with humanity and lyricism, painting a poignant and incomparable portrait of the nation at a turning point in history.This edition of The Americans is a celebrated return of an iconic title to Aperture's catalog, more than a half-century after the Aperture and Museum of Modern Art edition was published in 1968. Presented on the centennial of Frank's birth and coinciding with a major exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art, it has been produced following the finest tritone printing from the 2008 edition for which Frank was personally involved in every step of the design and production. Frank's exacting vision, distinct style, and poetic insight changed the course of twentieth-century photography, and influenced subsequent generations of photographers, including Lee Friedlander, Nan Goldin, Danny Lyon, Joel Meyerowitz, Ed Ruscha, and Garry Winogrand. Now extolled as one of the most groundbreaking photobooks of all time, The Americans remains as powerful and provocative as it was upon publication and continues to resonate with audiences today.

Hardcover. Black cloth boards with gilt lettering on spine. Unpaginated. Mainly comprised of BW photographs. 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 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. -Website description.

A very good copy in only a good dust jacket. Aided by his mentor Walker Evans, Swiss-born American photographer Robert Frank secured a Guggenheim Fellowship for 1955and 1956 with the goal of documenting the dichotomies of American society. Travelling nationally, usually via long road trips sometimes with his family and sometimes without, Frank visited all regions and almost all states including Savannah, Miami Beach, St. Petersburg, New Orleans (a Crescent City streetcar being the locale of famous photo illustrating the dj's front panel), Houston, Los Angeles, Reno, Salt Lake City, Butte, Detroit, Chicago, etc. Initially unable to secure an American publisher, Frank convinced Paris publisher Robert Delpire to issue the book in 1958 under the title "Les Amà ricains." Grove Press quickly followed with this first American edition in 1959 and its success led to prominent solo exhibitions at the Art Institute of Chicago in 1961 and at New York's Museum of Modern Art in 1962. Regarded as one the most significant works in the history of photography, THE AMERICANS was republished in 1969 and 2008.

Now from the prestigious Yugensha publishing house, the contact sheets for The Americans is available to collectors in a stunning display worthy of its subject's importance. In 81 large sheets (two images from the book appear on two of the sheets--thus 81 sheets rather than 83), this important meta-document makes visible Frank's picture-making process, as well as illuminating the crucial editing choices that made The Americans such a profoundly seminal book. From the National Gallery of Art, Washington: "First published in France in 1958, and in the United States in 1959, Robert Frank's book The Americans changed the course of 20th-century photography and helped the nation see itself more clearly. In 83 photographs, Frank looked beneath the surface of American life to reveal a people often plagued by racism, ill-served by their politicians, and rendered numb by a rapidly expanding consumer culture. Yet he also found new areas of beauty in overlooked corners of the country and in the process helped redefine the icons of America. In his photographs of diners, cars, and even the road itself, Frank pioneered a seemingly intuitive, immediate, off-kilter style that was as innovative as his subjects. Also groundbreaking was the way he tightly sequenced his photographs in The Americans, linking them thematically, conceptually, formally, and linguistically to present a haunting picture of mid-century America. More an ode or a poem than a literal document, The Americans is as powerful and provocative today as it was 50 years ago.".

Soft cover. Condizione: Fine. Dust Jacket Included. 1st Edition. Robert Frank: A Complete Collection of Books and Limited Editions [9 Volumes SIGNED (3 also INSCRIBED)] and a Sweeping Archive of Printed Ephemera from Seven Decades. The collection includes a complete set of 15 editions of The Americans from 1958 to 2008, as well as nine rare signed and/or inscribed titles. Institutions may request an illustrated catalogue of the collection, which also includes an extraordinary archive of printed ephemera, summarized below. Ephemera Archive: A sweeping archive of approximately 300 related books, periodicals, catalogues and films, and thousands of clippings, correspondence and other ephemera rounds out the book collection and demonstrates Frank's widespread impact on photography and visual culture over the past seven decades. Additionally, this archive supplies a comprehensive overview of Frank's palpable impact on some of the most significant aspects of Western postwar society and culture, from the Beats to the Civil Rights Movement; from the quintessential, gritty street photograph to the iconic rock and roll film. Arguably the most important and influential artist in the history of the medium, these materials make evident how Frank's intensely personal, but universal human perspective radically reshaped photographic vision. This group of materials essentially falls into four groups, as detailed below, including pictures of some of the highlights.
