Building Icons: Arnold Newman's Magazine World, 1938-2000
Member Pricing: $63.00
American photographer Arnold Newman (1918-2006) is best known for his compelling portraits of artists, composers, actors, and political figures of the post-Second World War era. Newman deliberately constructed his compositions to express biography, creative vision, and professional expertise. By building each image and methodically planning his photoshoots, he developed a graphic visual style that was well-suited to popular magazines of the day, such as Life, Look, Fortune, Holiday, and Harper's Bazaar.
This book highlights the crucial role magazines played in shaping Newman's career. In three major illustrated sections, the authors explore the way Newman learned through magazines; how his career was propelled by magazine commissions through the 1950s and 1960s; and how mass media publications circulated his work and cemented his reputation.
