The first definitive monograph of color photographs by American street photographer Vivian Maier.
Photographer Vivian Maier’s allure endures even though many details of her life continue to remain a mystery. Her story—the secretive nanny-photographer who became a pioneer photographer—has only been pieced together from the thousands of images she made and the handful of facts that have surfaced about her life. Vivian Maier: The Color Work is the largest and most highly curated published collection of Maier’s full-color photographs to date.
With a foreword by world-renowned photographer Joel Meyerowitz and text by curator Colin Westerbeck, this definitive volume sheds light on the nature of Maier’s color images, examining them within the context of her black-and-white work as well as the images of street photographers with whom she clearly had kinship, like Eugene Atget and Lee Friedlander. With more than 150 color photographs, most of which have never been published in book form, this collection of images deepens our understanding of Maier, as its immediacy demonstrates how keen she was to record and present her interpretation of the world around her.
##无与伦比
##谁都会生产垃圾,垃圾该去垃圾桶而非饭桌。不能因是薇薇安,就把残片也聚起来出个集子。
##噢摄影集里收录的照片数量没法满足我贪婪的眼睛!

##无与伦比
##摄影集中大部分作品为70年代的,但从摄影集中的几张照片来看,她对于彩色胶片的使用至少应该始于50年代中期,基本可以很彩色相机面向大众的时间相吻合!虽然不少照片有些乏味可陈,但不失为时代的记录,也可领略薇薇安迈尔的照相技术之稳定!或许她的黑白照片太惊艳了,会让人对她的彩色照片有很高要求,但放在同时代比较,其实还是很惊艳的!
