Paul Strand: Master of Modern Photography

Paul Strand (1890-1976)

Synopsis

This book offers a comprehensive reassessment of Paul Strand's influential career, celebrating the Philadelphia Museum of Art's acquisition of his print collection. Strand's work, spanning from his involvement with Alfred Stieglitz's New York circle to his international projects in Mexico, France, Italy, and Africa, showcases his evolving priorities as an independent modernist. The book includes over 250 plates featuring iconic and rare prints, and its essays explore Strand's political engagement in art from 1930 to 1950. Published with the Philadelphia Museum of Art and Fundación MAPFRE, it includes contributions from key scholars and an exhibition schedule.
