Author: KERTESZ, ANDRE
Title: The early years.
Description: New York/ London, W.W. Norton & Company. 2005, 1st Edition. (ISBN: 0 393 06160 4) Hardcover. Book, Andre Kertesz (1894-1985) was one of the most inventive, influential and prolific photographers in the medium's history. His combination of Modernist vision and poetic wit defined a vocabulary that generations of photographers have continued to use. Kertesz's iconic images of 1920s Paris, such as Chez Mondrian and Satiric Dancer and his later images from New York - Melancholic Tulip, Washington Square- have seeped into contemporary culture, and yet Kertesz maintained that the real roots of his work were in Hungary. This book, the first completely dedicated to Kertesz's early Hungarian prints, offers a unique window on the origins of genius. 66 images. Cloth with jacket. 159 p. Good.
