Download or read book Walker Evans written by Judith Keller and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 1995-11-02 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Walker Evans is widely recognized as one of the greatest American photographers of the twentieth century, and the J. Paul Getty Museum owns one of the most comprehensive collections of his work, including more of his vintage prints than any other museum in the world. This lavishly illustrated volume brings together for the first time all of the Museum’s Walker Evans holdings. Included here are familiar images—such as Evans’s photographs of tenant farmers and their families, made in the 1930s and later published in Let Us Now Praise Famous Men—and images that are much less familiar—such as the photographs Evans made in the 1940s of the winter quarters of the Ringling Brothers circus, or his very late Polaroids, made in the 1970s. In addition, many previously unpublished Evans photographs, and variant croppings of classic images, appear here for the first time. Author Judith Keller has written a lively, informative text that places these photographs in the larger context of Evans’s life and career and the culture—especially the popular culture—of the time. In so doing, she has produced an indispensible volume for anyone interested in the history of photography or American culture in the twentieth century. Also included is the most comprehensive bibliography on Walker Evans published to date.

Download or read book The Emil B hrle Collection written by Lukas Gloor and published by . This book was released on 2021-08-15 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A beautifully produced catalog of one of the great art collections of the modern age. Paul Cézanne, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Claude Monet, and many others--between 1936 and 1956 the Swiss industrialist Emil Bührle (1890-1956) amassed an impressive collection of French Impressionism and more. As the owner of the largest weapons factory in his country he had close links to the world-changing events of World War II and the early Cold War. Initially Bührle acquired works almost exclusively in Switzerland; then, from 1951 onward, he rapidly expanded his collection, thanks in part to his business contacts in the United States. This book illustrates the colorful history of the Bührle collection, which includes a total of 633 works, and examines its importance to modern art collections in Germany, Switzerland, and the United States. The survey is complemented by contributions from a number of authors who reflect on seventy masterpieces in the collection, from the old masters to Picasso.
