Paul Strand (1890-1976) was a pioneering photographer who explored the dynamic potential of photography, marked by purity, elegance, and passion. Taught by Lewis Hine, Strand earned acclaim from Alfred Stieglitz and traveled globally post-World War II, creating a significant photographic oeuvre. This redesigned, expanded Aperture book, introduced by Peter Barberie of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, offers a comprehensive image-by-image commentary and detailed chronology of Strand's life. The book accompanies the 2014 retrospective exhibition and celebrates Strand's influential body of work and unique visual perspective.
