Alfred Stieglitz: Camera Work: A Pictorial Guide (Dover Art Collections)

by: Alfred Stieglitz
The book is very good and very complete. I only see 2 problems! First, all the pictures are in black & white. Even the paintings wich takes off a bit of the magic of the camera work. The second thing, is that the information doesn't seam to be very well organized. I'm talking about the subtitles. We're presented with all the images in a row (from each 2 pages) and then, at the end of the second page, we have all the subtitles together.

In the end, it is very good for the money that's asked for it but not too good.

An American Lens: Scenes from Alfred Stieglitz's New York Secession

by: Jay Bochner
Beginning as the 19th century ended, Alfred Stieglitz was an innovator in photography, and by the first decade of the 20th century, he was in active dialogue with the major innovations in painting. At his New York gallery called 291, Stieglitz offered the first American exhibitions of Matisse and Toulose-Lautrec, and Picasso's first one man show anywhere. In the pages of his Camera Work periodical, he was one of the first to print Gertrude Stein.

Stieglitz is of course linked to the great American painter, Georgia O'Keeffe, whose work he exhibited before he'd met her, but with whom he had a long and storied romantic relationship.

Alfred Stieglitz: The Key Set - Volume I & II: The Alfred Stieglitz Collection of Photographs

by: Sarah et al. Greenough
An important contribution to the history of photography, this book is a monumental task in cataloging and comparing Stieglitz's opus. At 1000 pages (including index, bibliography etc), it is massive, but so is the quality of the binding, the printing, the paper. A pleasure to hold in your hand (if you can lift it!).
Regarding the content, it really is an almost complete history of Stieglitz's photography including the mundane and experimental photography (endless pictures of clouds). What I find interesting are the subtle variations in photos as well as prints of the same picture for a different effect.

In Focus: Alfred Steiglitz : Photographs from the J. Paul Getty Museum (In Focus (J. Paul Getty Museum))

by: Weston Naef, Alfred Stieglitz
Steiglitz is one of the great masters of the art of photography. Married to producing quality material, his work will never be "out of style." In addition, today's media obsessed population can find excitement in the stories of his personal life with Georgia O'Keefe. So it seems as though there's something for all.
