ARNOLD NEWMAN'S AMERICANS Special Edition, SIGNED,

Description: ARNOLD NEWMAN'S AMERICANSThis copy is in FINE condition, like new. A special edition. In recognition of the career and award-winning work of Arnold Newman, the National Portrait Gallery, Smithsonian Institute, exhibited 100 of Newman's portraits of individuals who have made a notable contribution to American culture and society. Included are classic portraits of Igor Stravinsky, Frank Lloyd Wright, Robert Oppenheimer, Gypsy Rose Lee, Eugene O'Neill, J.F. Kennedy and Leonard Bernstein. Newman's innovative portraits were a radical step away from the traditional portraiture of the 1940s - capturing the subject in a setting reflective of his or her vocation and personal creativity. It is just this independent spirit that established him as a ground-breaking artist and made his work the subject of eight books and exhibitions the world over. The publication of this collection of more than 100 black-and-white photo portraits by Newman coincided with a National Portrait Gallery exhibit. Nearly 50 years ago, Newman was a pioneer of the portrait style that places its subjects in their working environment. Introductory essays by Alan Fern and Arnold Newman gracefully explain the circumstances surrounding many of the photographs in this showcase of Newman's mastery of his medium and, during the shoot, of his subjects.
