Lee Friedlander: Self Portrait

Lee Friedlander (1934)

Synopsis

Lee Friedlander's book, originally published in 1970, showcases his unique approach to self-portraiture, featuring nearly 50 duotone images. Friedlander explores his physical presence in photographs, using his shadow and reflections in windows and mirrors. The images depict his playful engagement with self-representation, as seen in his shadow elongating beside women or casting humorous overlays on various surfaces. This reprint includes an afterword by John Szarkowski, the former Director of the Department of Photography at The Museum of Modern Art. The book portrays a surreal exploration of identity and the artist's introspective journey.
