Sobre este artículo
(NY): Museum of Modern Art, (1938). First Edition. Hardcover. Fine/fine. 198p quarto, illustrated. A very find copy in like dust jacket. 5000 copies printed for the Trustees of the Museum of Modern Art. American Photographs immediately established Evans as a major artist. At thetime this exhibition was the first one man show devoted to a photographer's work at the Museum. "American Photographs revealed the terrible gulf between what Americans tell themselves they are and what they know they are, and at the sam time opened a fissure within photography between 'artistic' and documentary practice. When Ansel Adams (who was born the same year as Evans, 1903) saw American Photographs, he wrote to Edward Weston, complaining that "'Walker Evans's book gives me a hernia. I am so goddamn mad over what people from the left tier think America is;" Roth The Book of 101 Books pp 98-99 A very fine copy in a very fine dust jacket. Tiny mark on th bottom edge.
