Softcover. Condition: Good. First Edition, Later Printing. When Diane Arbus died in 1971 at the age of forty-eight, she was already a significant influence--even something of a legend--among serious photographers, although only a relatively small number of her most important pictures were widely known at the time. The publication of Diane Arbus: An Aperture Monograph in 1972--along with the posthumous retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art--offered the general public its first encounter with the breadth and power of her achievements. The response was unprecedented.The monograph of eighty photographs was edited and designed by the painter Marvin Israel, Diane Arbus's friend and colleague, and by her daughter Doon Arbus. Their goal in making the book was to remain as faithful as possible to the standards by which Diane Arbus judged her own work and to the ways in which she hoped it would be seen. Universally acknowledged a classic, Diane Arbus: An Aperture Monograph is a timeless masterpiece with editions in five languages and remains the foundation of her international reputation.This anniversary edition celebrates one of the most important photographic books in history on the work of a single artist. Every image in this edition has been printed from new three-hundred-line-screen duotone film, bringing to the reproductions a clarity and brilliance unattainable until now. A quarter of a century has done nothing to diminish the riveting impact of these pictures or the controversy they inspire. Arbus's photographs penetrate the psyche with all the force of a personal encounter and, in doing so, transform the way we see the world and the people in it.

Condition: Sehr gut. 3. Auflage,. 175 Seiten, durchgehend mit teils ganzseitigen schwarz-weißen Fotos, Reproduktionen von Zeitschriftenseiten, Inhaltsverzeichnis, illustrierter Einband, Mit Texten und einem Essay von Thomas W. Southall. Deutsch von Carl Weissner. Diane Arbus, geb. Nemerov (* 14. März 1923 in New York City; 26. Juli 1971 ebenda) war eine amerikanische Fotografin und Fotojournalistin russisch-jüdischer Abstammung. Arbus ist vor allem für ihre teils einfühlsamen, teils schonungslosen Porträts von Exzentrikern und Randfiguren der Gesellschaft bekannt, in denen sie das einprägsam Andersartige und Absonderliche herausarbeitet.[1] Ausgreifende Themenkomplexe beschäftigen sich u. a. mit Zirkusartisten, Nudisten, Transvestiten, Zwillingen, Prostituierten oder fehlgebildeten und geistig behinderten Personen. Neben dem Hinterfragen der Grenzen von Normalität und Ästhetik der Gesellschaft erweiterte sie die künstlerische Fotografie um scharf akzentuierte psychologische Aspekte. Diane Arbus war die erste amerikanische Fotografin, deren Arbeit bei der Biennale in Venedig ausgestellt wurde (1972). Eine nach ihrem Tod 1972 konzipierte Werkübersicht präsentierte als Wanderausstellung 197279 einem Millionenpublikum den Kern ihres Schaffens und machte sie zu einer Kultfigur. Die parallel dazu erstmals 1972 erschienene Monographie Diane Arbus: An Aperture Monograph ist eines der meistverkauften Bücher der Fotografiegeschichte und wird noch bis in die Gegenwart ständig neu aufgelegt. Diane Arbus, die zunächst als Mode- und Porträtfotografin auf sich aufmerksam machte, wandte sich unter dem Eindruck der Arbeit von August Sander, der vor allem vor und nach dem 1. Weltkrieg seine größten Erfolge mit typologisierenden Porträts hatte, einer sozialkritisch geprägten Fotografie zu. Ihre Fotoserien von Randgruppen der amerikanischen Gesellschaft sie bildete Arme, Obdachlose, Drogenabhängige und Farbige ab waren ausdrucksstarke, realistische Porträts, die den kritischen Geist der 60er Jahre genau trafen.

Dust jacket lightly foxed inside of jacket and small closed tear inside back upper left, at flap crease. Small bookseller sticker on free front endpaper. Slight discoloration to top edge of cover. Overall fine condition. Diane Arbus (1923-1971), was noted for her portraits of people on the fringes of society such as prostitutes, transvestites, dwarfs, giants, as well as ordinary working class citizens in unconventional poses and settings. Arbus became the first American photographer to be exhibited at the Venice Biennale. "For me the subject of the picture is always more important than the picture. And more complicated. I do have a feeling for the print but I don't have a holy feeling for it. I really think what it is, is what it's about. I mean it has to be of something. And what it's of is always more remarkable than what it is." (Diane Arbus).
