‎Tir a' Mhurain: Outer Hebrides‎

‎New York: Grossman Publishers 1968. Rilegato tela sovracoperta cloth dust jacket. Ottimo Fine. 105 photographs by Paul Strand. Text by Basil Davidson. 8vo. pp. 150. Ottimo Fine. Prima ed. americana First American edition. ''La vera unicità del mezzo fotografico consiste nella sua assoluta e incondizionata oggettività''. A tale affermazione divenuta il manifesto della fotografia modernista il fotografo Paul Strand rimase sempre fedele soprattutto nella produzione di libri che illustravano popoli e Paesi cui si dedicò dopo la seconda guerra mondiale. Uno dei più memorabili è ''Tir a' Mhurain: Outer Hebrides'' nome gaelico per l'isola di South Uist ovvero the Land of Bent Grass. Il volume le cui bellissime fotografie in bianco e nero furono scattate nell'isola che dà il titolo al libro oltre che a Benbecula ed Eriskay ha un risvolto politico. Strand fotografo marxista controllato dall'FBI sbarcò sull'isola proprio mentre si andavano conducendo sondaggi segreti per l'utilizzo del luogo come base missilistica americana. Strand indignato concepì in parte Tir a' Mhurain come protesta contro il militarismo aggressivo statunitense. Il fotografo inoltre insistette per stampare il libro a Leipzig Germania dell'Est adducendo motivi tecnici più che politici ovvero l'esistenza di uno speciale processo di stampa disponibile unicamente dall'altra parte della cortina di ferro. Il libro venne bandito negli USA a meno che le copie importate recassero il timbro ''stampato in Germania occupata dall'URSS''. Clausola che Strand ovviamente non avrebbe mai accettato.

‎Wall Street.‎

‎New York 1916. . Photogravure on japan paper from Camera Work No. 48 annotated on the reverse image size 13.4 x 16.6 cm. sheet 28.1 x 20 cm mounted and framed. An iconic image of Wall Street and a turning point in modern photography. Wall Street depicts a scene of everyday life in Manhattan's Financial District. Workers are seen walking past the J.P. Morgan building in New York City on the famous Wall Street of which the photograph takes its name. The photograph is famous for its reliance on the sharpness and contrast of the shapes and angles created by the building and the workers that lead to its abstraction. This photograph is considered to be one of Strand's most famous works and an example of his change from pictorialism to straight photography. Strand moved from the posed to portraying the purity of the subjects. There is no focal point with the lines converging off of the frame of the image. The financial building take majority of the frame. Emphasis is placed on the strong shapes created by the architecture of the building. The workers are included in the image but are faceless and are trumped in size by the massive square shapes from the building they walk past. Also the workers are captured in motion which on film makes them appear blurry. This aesthetic that Strand creates in Wall Street is his break toward the modern. Social change was important to Strand. With Wall Street he sought to portray a social message. He captured the faceless people next to the looming financial building in order to give a warning. Strand shows 'the recently built J.P. Morgan Co. building whose huge dark recesses dwarf the passers-by with the imposing powers of uniformity and anonymity' Ollman Art Review: Paul Strand: A Transition Caught on Film. The people cannot escape the overwhelming power that this modern establishment will have on their future and the future of America. He warns us to not be the small people that look almost ant-like next to this building that has a massive amount of control over the American economy. The photo now simply titled 'Wall Street' was one of six Paul Strand pictures Stieglitz published in Camera Work. In three of the six pictures humanity strides out from abstract ideas and each figure was a study in itself — an irregular item complimented by modular formats that surround it. Another set of eleven Strand photos were published in the magazine's final issue in 1917 and those pictures overwhelmingly endorsed by Stieglitz as 'brutally direct' made Strand's reputation.

A fierce proponent of modern art in America Stieglitz’s infamous 291 Gallery on Fifth Avenue was the first to champion the avant-garde of European and American art and photography. His stewardship of Strand had a profound effect cultivating in Strand one of the greatest modernist photographers of the era. Aperture has drawn some of his most notable images for this portfolio from the Paul Strand Archive; they include City Hall Park New York 1915; From the El New York 1917; and Yawning Woman New York 1916. Describing Strand’s oeuvre Stieglitz said: “In the history of photography there are but few photographers who from the point of view of expression have really done much work of any importance. And by importance we mean work that has some relatively lasting quality that element which gives all art its real significance. . . . The work is brutally direct. Devoid of any flim-flams; devoid of trickery and any ‘ism’ devoid of any attempt to mystify an ignorant public.” A Very Fine Pristine As New copy. The Aperture Foundation. hardcover books‎
