Arnold Newman was one of the most productive, creative and successful portrait photographers of the 20th century. This posthumous monograph of the American master showcases his iconic individual and group portraits, as well as abstracts, landscapes and cityscapes.
Arnold Newman was one of the most productive and respected portrait photographers of the latter half of the 20th century. His portraits feature many powerful and influential figures of the time, captured in Newman's innovative "environmental" style. This collection of mostly black-and-white photos from across the span of Newman's career offers images which are rarely seen in other books. It includes portraits of businessmen, abstractions, architectural details, cityscapes, and group portraits. The book opens with a biography of Newman placing him in the context of his time and community, and closes with an essay on his involvement in the FACES project. It also includes a list of subject biographies, and selected exhibitions and publications. Annotation ©2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
