• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The definitive monograph of the American photographer, exploring the full range and brilliance of her work and the mystery of her life.

Foreword by New York Times -bestselling author Laura Lippman

Vivian Maier's story-the secretive nanny-photographer during her life who becomes a popular sensation shortly after her death-has, to date, been pieced together only from previously seen or known images she made and the handful of facts that have surfaced about her life. During her lifetime she shot more than one hundred,zero images, which she kept hidden from the world. In 2007, two years before her death, Chicago historic preservationist John Maloof discovered a trove of negatives, and roll upon roll of undeveloped film in a storage locker he bought at auction. They revealed a surprising and accomplished artist and a stunning body of work, which Maloof championed and brought to worldwide acclaim.

Written and edited by noted photography curator and writer Marvin Heiferman, Vivian Maier: A Photographer Found presents the most comprehensive collection and largest selection of the photographer's work-created during the 1950s through the 1970s in New York, Chicago, and on her travels around the country-almost exclusively unpublished and including her previously unknown color work. It features images of and excerpts from Maier's personal artifacts, memorabilia, and audiotapes, made available for the first time. This remarkable volume draws upon interviews with people who knew Maier, which shed light on Maier's photographic skill and her life.

Features 250 black-and-white images, color work, and other previously unpublished materials
