Photographing America: Henri Cartier-Bresson / Walker Evans

This is a fantastic collection of well-known and lesser-known photographs by Cartier-Bresson and Evans. The workmanship is fantastic. I would highly recommend this to any admirer of Cartier-Bresson, Evans, pre-war America in photographs, Farm Security Administration (type) photographs, or those interested in a comparison of two masters of second-quarter 20th century photographs.

by: James Crump
Walker Evans (1903-1975) is, without doubt, one of the most influential American photographers ever, and many of his images have become fixed in the collective memory. But while Evans' uncompromising depiction of poverty during the Great Depression of the 1930s, the subject of a series commissioned by the Farm Security Administration, has become a key chapter in the history of photography, his equally innovative images from later decades have generally commanded less attention. This exciting new monograph attempts to redress the balance by examining Evans' complete body of work, and features many rarely seen photographs, including his final works, a sequence of Polaroids shot in the early 1970s (a sequence made possible by an unlimited supply of film from its manufacturer).
