Lee Friedlander — Self Portrait

Out of Stock

SELF-PORTRAIT was Friedlander’s first monograph and one of the most influential monographs. As Martin Parr and Gerry Badger write of the first edition in The Photobook: A History, Vol. I, Friedlander “critiques the act of photographing, laying bare the process, and emphasizing that it is about personal point of view. SelfPortrait is a complex, subtle work that functions as an oblique document of contemporary experience.” This is a beautifully produced, faithful, and worthy edition, adding a few well-known images not originally included and John Szarkowski’s essay
