In search of a fresh start Strand traveled to Mexico City in late 1932 at the invitation of Carlos Chavez the eminent Mexican composer and conductor. The work he created during this key period reflects a time of intense productivity creative renewal and the evolution of Strand's foundational idea of the "collective portrait" in which he depicted a region through photographs of individuals still lifes and studies of architecture and religious subjects. The first publication to chronicle this pivotal time in Strand's career 1932-34 Paul Strand in Mexico demonstrates how through his photographic studies and work in film Strand deepened his involvement with Mexican art society and revolutionary politics. Shedding new light on this little-known chapter of Strand's life a scholarly analysis by James Krippner Associate Professor of History at Haverford College Pennsylvania brings together primary research from distinguished archives and institutions in both Mexico and the United States and Mexican photo-historian Alfonso Morales contributes an essay contextualizing this remarkable body of work within the canon of Mexican photography and film of the 1930s. Additionally the appendix serves as the catalogue raisonne of Strand's entire photographic output in Mexico. The culmination of Strand's time in Mexico was his collaboration with Emilio Gomez Muriel and Academy Award-winning director Fred Zinnemann on the groundbreaking film Redes The Wave 1936. A remastered DVD version of the film is included with this essential volume. Paul Strand 1890-1976 is one of the great photographers of the twentieth century.

FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - Flawless copy brand new pristine never opened -- Text in English. 76 pp. ; 25 ills. -- with a bonus offer--; In the late 1940s Paul Strand spoke of creating "a series of photographs that focused on the history architecture environs and people of a small town which would reveal 'the common denominator of all humanity' and would be a bridge toward a deeper understanding between countries." This book presents a rigorously edited selection of these photographs made in France Italy and New England between the years 1943 and 1953. Whether depicting an old French fisherman a stormy sea or a tilting New England gravestone Strand identified and explored certain central themes that included the primal connection between humans and the natural world; the beauty of simple objects and structures; and the inherent dignity of every individual regardless of wealth or social status. The exquisitely reproduced photographs gathered here encourage the viewer to look closely and observe how details and formal relations emerge. . 2007. 3865215203 . Steidl / Foundation hardcover
