Er verklärte weder das Leben der Menschen, die er fotografierte, noch verurteilte er sie, während er durch die Straßen der Stadt streifte. Fotografieren und das Erkunden der Stadt waren für ihn untrennbar miteinander verbunden. Die meisten seiner Bilder entstanden in den New Yorker Vierteln, zu denen er fast vierzig Jahre lang Woche für Woche, Jahr für Jahr zurückkehrte: Lower East Side, Coney Island, Harlem und Times Square. Dies waren Orte, an denen sich die Dramen des Lebens oft auf der Straße abspielten, wie auch in den Ländern, in denen er auf seinen Reisen seine eindrucksvollsten Werke schuf: Haiti, Indien und Mexiko [Museumsinfo]. …

hardcover. Zustand: As New. Prima edizione (First Edition). Fotografie in bianco e nero, alcune a colori. Testi di Howard Greenberg, Jeff L. Rosenheim, Bob Shamis, Carrie Springer . Cm 25x31. pp. 328. . Perfetto (Mint). . Prima edizione (First Edition). . Il fotografo di strada americano Leon Levinstein è molto ammirato all'interno della comunità fotografica, ma poco conosciuto al di fuori di essa. Le immagini in bianco e nero di Levinstein, senza paura e senza sentimentalismi, scattate a New York, Coney Island, Haiti, Messico o India, possiedono, secondo le parole del curatore delle fotografie del Metropolitan Museum of Art Jeff Rosenheim, "un virtuosismo grafico - nei gesti crudi ed espressivi e nei corpi apparentemente monumentali - bilanciato da un'insolita compassione per i suoi eccentrici soggetti". Nel 1975, all'età di 65 anni, Levinstein ricevette una sovvenzione dalla Fondazione John Simon Guggenheim. La sua intenzione, secondo le sue stesse parole, era "fotografare il più ampio spettro della scena americana che la mia esperienza e la mia visione possano permettere". Questo libro tanto atteso realizza questo ambizioso obiettivo. Book.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. 1st Edition. Limited first edition of this retrospective collection of 196 images, number 54 of only 100 copies, accompanied by a numbered original silver-gelatin photograph entitled Houston Street, New York (circa 1969). "Levinstein's photographs always steered clear of sentimentalism: his gaze moved around his subjects, composing without intervening They transcend their own realism. A documentary expressionist with a practice firmly focused on its own concerns, Levinstein left witness and commentary to others" (Sam Stourdzé). His pictures are "confrontational, 'in-your-face' street photographs" (Parr & Badger, 235), raw, capturing both the brash energies of the street and the haunting resignation of its people. Levinstein formed a "photographic language that one could justifiably call the photography of isolation" (Stourdzé). Text in French and English.…

"American street photographer Leon Levinstein is much admired within the photographic community, but little known outside of it. Solo exhibitions at the National Gallery of Canada in 1995 and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York in 2010 brought him to the attention of many, but his dynamic and original work is yet to achieve the recognition it deserves. Levinstein`s fearless and unsentimental black and white images, whether shot in New York City, Coney Island, Haiti, Mexico or India, possess in Metropolitan Museum of Art Curator of Photographs Jeff Rosenheim`s words, "graphic virtuosity - seen in raw, expressive gestures and seemingly monumental bodies - balanced by an unusual compassion for his off-beat subjects". In 1975, at the age of 65, Levinstein received a grant from the John Simon Guggenheim Foundation. His intention, in his own words, was to photograph "as wide a spectrum of the American scene as my experience and vision will allow". This long-awaited book fulfils this ambitious goal."
