About this title

Synopsis

In addition to the street photographs for which Rudy Burckhardt is best known, these photographs, dating from 1933-1988, present portraits of strangers and friends (with and without clothes), images of Haiti, Italy and the American South, and studies of artists in the studio, including portraits of Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning, Hans Hofmann and Larry Rivers. The irresistible interview by British poet Simon Pettet offers insights into the artist as well as his work.

Review

In addition to the street photographs for which Rudy Burckhardt is best known, Talking Pictures: The Photographs of Rudy Burckhardt, 1933-1988 presents portraits of strangers and friends (with and without clothes), images of Haiti, Italy and the American South, and studies of artists in the studio, including portraits of Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning, Hans Hofmann and Larry Rivers. Rudy Burckhardt has exhibited his photographs widely, and the Museum of Modern Art featured a retrospective of sixty-four of his films in New York in 1987. -- Midwest Book Review
