André Kertész

André Kertész (1894-1985)

Synopsis

This book delves into the life and work of André Kertész, a Hungarian-born photographer whose career spanned much of the twentieth century. It features 120 striking images and unpublished archival materials that offer insight into Kertész's artistic journey through Budapest, Paris, and New York. Unlike previous works, this publication includes only vintage prints, some rarely seen. Renowned art historian Sarah Greenough and Kertész Foundation curator Robert Gurbo provide essays exploring key phases of his life. The book highlights Kertész's autobiographical approach and includes tritone reproductions, an illustrated chronology, a bibliography, and unpublished writings.
