Der gebürtige New Yorker Richard Avedon ist seit über 50 Jahren ein ruhe- und schonungsloser Chronist unserer Zeit. »Niemand hat einer Nation ein umfassenderes, disziplinierteres Fotodokument von sich selbst gegeben«, schrieb John Laar in der Londoner »Times«. Seine eindrucksvollen, psychologischen Porträtserien rücken Avedon in die erste Reihe der Menschendarsteller des 20. Jahrhunderts.Die Publikation stellt mit »In the American West« ein Projekt des Fotografen vor, das er von 1979 bis 1984 realisierte und in Europa bisher weniger bekannt ist. Die Porträts zeigen Menschen des Mittleren WestensBerg- und Landarbeiter, Fabrikarbeiter, Arbeitslose, Obdachlose, Ausgestoßene.
