Diane Arbus: An Aperture Monograph

Paperback Trade Paperback English 184 pages 9.3 x 11.1 inches 10.6 oz

Description

Diane Arbus (1923–1971) revolutionized portraiture with her raw, direct images of couples, circus performers, nudists, and everyday New Yorkers. This Aperture monograph, released a year after her death, transformed her into a legend. The 25th Anniversary edition (1997) remains faithful to the original design by Marvin Israel and Doon Arbus while significantly improving reproduction quality through 300-line screen duotone film. It is an essential volume for understanding the evolution of modern photography and the power of the singular photographic portrait.
