Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Hungarian-born Andre Kertesz (1894-1985) was one of the most influential and popular photographers of the twentieth century. This volume presents for the first time selections from the Getty Museum's holdings of Kertesz's photographs, including work from his Budapest, Paris, and New York periods. The book also offers an intimate look at Kertesz through a dialogue among four of the people who knew the artist best during the last years of his life: Robert Gurbo, Curator of New York's Andre and Elizabeth Kertesz Foundation; David Travis, Curator of Photography at the Art Institute; Sylvia Plachy, photographer; and the Getty's Curator of Photographs, Weston Naef. The discussion was moderated by Charles Hagen, writer and critic for the New York Times.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice Overview, June 23, 2008
By SplitEdit (Los Angeles) - See all my reviews
A very well produced introduction to Kertesz' work. The reproductions are small but the images are reasonably well printed with detailed captions offered for each. Many beautiful and fascinating images are included. The book concludes with a chronology of Kertesz' life and excerpts from a informal 1993 colloquium about his life and work. Well worth the low price.
