Résumé:
Le voyage photographique d' E. Gowin commence par sa Virginie natale, avec des portraits de sa femme Edith. Puis il quitte la sphère familiale pour des lieux chargés d'histoire (site de Petra en Jordanie, ville abandonnée de Matera en Italie, etc.) ou ravagés par des catastrophes naturelles et la main de l'homme (éruptions volcaniques, exploitations minières, terrains d'essais nucléaires, etc.). Cet ouvrage, réalisé en étroite collaboration avec Emmet Gowin, contient plus de 200 images et offre la vision la plus complète de son oeuvre.

Résumé:
One of the masters of contemporary photography, Lee Friedlander has dedicated his career to the documentation of everyday life in the United States. His images are characterized by a composition that utilizes the urban geometry of storefronts and street signs—and later car windows and telephone poles—as a framing technique. This catalog, published in conjunction with a retrospective organized by the Fundación MAPFRE in Madrid, surveys the wide scope of Friedlander’s career from the 1960s to today. High-quality reproductions of all of the exhibited works are supplemented by text written by curator Carlos Gollonet and photographer Nicholas Nixon. The volume serves as a comprehensive guide to Friedlander’s body of work, with personal insight provided through an interview between Maria Friedlander and gallery director Jeffrey Fraenkel, as well as a chronology of the artist’s life by his grandson Giancarlo T. Roma.
