Super RARE!! Saul Leiter - Early Black and White, 2015, HC, NEW, two volumes

Description: SALE!!! Super RARE!!! Saul Leiter - Early Black and White, 2015, HC, NEW Condition New Steidl English Hardcover 388 pages Edited by Max Kozloff Hardback / Clothbound in slipcase 20 x 20 cm The distinctive iconography of Saul Leiter's early black-and-white photographs stems from his profound response to the dynamic street life of New York City in the late 1940s and 50s. While this technique borrowed aspects of the photo-documentary, Leiter's imagery was more shaped by his highly individual reactions to the people and places he encountered. Like a Magic Realist with a camera, Leiter absorbed the mystery of the city and poignant human experiences. Together with Early Color, also published by Steidl, the two volumes comprising Early Black and White show the impressive range of Leiter's early photography. The photographs showcase Leiter's unique eye for capturing the beauty of the streets through his lens. The set is a must-have for any art photography collector and will be a valuable addition to any art collection. Don't miss out on the opportunity to own a piece of photographic history. Saul Leiter (b. 1923) is one of those photographers who seek neither fame nor commercial success, despite their talent for imagemaking. Born in Pittsburgh, he spent the 1940s and 1950s in New York, in an intensely creative environment where ideas from Europe and America came together and intermingled. There he encountered Rothko and the Abstract Expressionists, and discovered street photography and the work of Cartier-Bresson. His mastery of color is displayed in unconventional cityscapes in which reflections, transparency, complex framing and mirroring effects are married to a very personal printing style, creating a unique urban view.
