Lee Friedlander Pořadí knih (chronologicky)

Lee Friedlander is celebrated for his ability to weave disparate elements from ordinary life into uncanny images of great formal complexity and visual wit. And few things have attracted his attention—or been more unpredictable in their effect—than the humble chain link fence. Erected to delineate space, form protective barriers and bring order to chaos, the fences in Friedlander’s pictures catch filaments of light, throw disconcerting shadows and visually interrupt scenes without fully occluding them. Sometimes the steel mesh seems as delicate as lace; at others it appears as tough as snakeskin. In this book’s 97 pictures, drawn from over four decades of work, it recurs as versatile, utilitarian and ubiquitous—not unlike the photographer himself.

A magnificent review of Lee Friedlander's life and career, shown through his self-portraiture Lee Friedlander (b. 1934) has been tackling the challenge of self-portraiture throughout his prolific career. What began as an unorthodox investigation of the genre has become a masterful engagement spanning five decades. In this extraordinary compilation, which includes hundreds of previously unpublished pictures, we follow the famous photographer through the years as his personal and creative lives unfold and intertwine. Produced to the highest production standards and featuring over 400 duotone images—from his first self-portraits, taken with cable release in hand, to recent images of the photographer with his family and extended network of friends—In the Picture explores Friedlander’s various guises throughout a rich and colorful life.

Im industriellen Norden Ende der 1970er Jahre arbeiteten Menschen mit Händen und Maschinen, um Dinge herzustellen, die wir alle nutzen. In den frühen 80er Jahren wurden in Wisconsin Supercomputer gebaut; zur gleichen Zeit tippten in der Nähe von Boston Menschen an Desktop-Computern. In New York City standen in den frühen 90er Jahren Menschen an Börsen und handelten. 1995 saßen in Omaha Menschen an Computern und führten Kaltakquise als Telemarketer durch; und in Cleveland nutzten im selben Jahr Menschen ihre Fähigkeiten auf traditionelle Weise, um erneut Produkte herzustellen, auf die wir alle angewiesen sind. Arbeit, Arbeit, Arbeit – wir verbringen den größten Teil unseres Lebens im Job, sei es in einer Fabrik, einem antiseptischen Büro oder irgendwo dazwischen in der riesigen Produktionskette. Der unermüdliche Fotograf Lee Friedlander, der manisch inklusive, aber glücklicherweise lässige Katalogisierer von Americana – ihren Denkmälern, Jazzmusikern und urbanen Landschaften – präsentiert hier 16 Jahre Amerikaner bei der Arbeit. Eine Sammlung von in Auftrag gegebenen Portfolios, einige auf Wunsch von Kunstinstitutionen, andere auf Anordnung von Unternehmens-CEOs, dokumentiert Lee Friedlander At Work auch subtil 16 Jahre eines der außergewöhnlichsten und fleißigsten Fotografen Amerikas bei der Arbeit.
