Böcker av Lyle Rexer

The first major career retrospective of this remarkable midcentury street photographer, largely undiscovered beyond a prestigious collector and gallery circle. Some 170 images reveal Newman's flawless technique and humanist sensibility through vivid New York cityscapes, riveting sports shots, and other inventive images from across the U.S.

The Critical Eye provides a comprehensive approach to the critical understanding of photography through an in-depth discussion of fifteen photographs and their contexts - historical, generic, biographical and aesthetic. Lyle Rexer argues that by concentrating on just a few carefully chosen works it is possible to understand the history, development and contemporary situation of photography.
