America: Photography by Andreas Feininger

by Andreas Feininger

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This book is a superb collection of American scenes taken in the 1940, 1950s and 1960s by one of photography's all time greats, Andreas Feininger.

Each image is a fine example of Feininger's incorruptible sense of proportion, a tribute to the inimitable aesthetic quality that became the signature of his work. Many illustrate his ceaseless quest to minimize the difference between idea and reality, his desire to allow mundane subjects to slip into Utopia.

Feininger's America is a photographic tour de force, from Chicago to New Orleans, from Hollywood to Coral Gables.
