From the late 1920s until the time of his death in 1975, renowned photographer Walker Evans returned obsessively to particular subjects. His fascination with signs resulted in some of his greatest photographs; billboards and movie posters, newspaper headlines and theatre marquees. This book brings together 50 of these photographs from the Getty Museum's large collection of Evans's work. There are images from the era and place most closely associated with Evans, the rural South of the 1930s, but there are also less familiar photographs - New York City street scenes and advertising, pictures he took in Chicago or Detroit and in Havana. Andrei Codrescu has written an essay specially for the book, that brings a fresh perspective to his great photographer's passionate investigation of the signs he discovered in the urban North, the rural South and beyond.

Tapa Dura. Zustand: Muy Bien. 1ª Edición. Desde finales de la década de 1920 hasta el momento de su muerte en 1975, el renombrado fotógrafo Walker Evans volvió obsesivamente a temas concretos. Su fascinación por los signos dio lugar a algunas de sus mejores fotografías; vallas publicitarias y carteles de películas, titulares de periódicos y marquesinas de teatro. Este libro reúne 50 de estas fotografías de la gran colección de obras de Evans del Museo Getty. Hay imágenes de la época y el lugar más estrechamente asociados con Evans, el sur rural de la década de 1930, pero también hay fotografías menos familiares: escenas callejeras y publicidad de la ciudad de Nueva York, fotografías que tomó en Chicago o Detroit y en La Habana. Andrei Codrescu ha escrito un ensayo especialmente para el libro, que aporta una nueva perspectiva a la apasionada investigación de su gran fotógrafo sobre los signos que descubrió en el Norte urbano, el Sur rural y más allá.
