Purchase options and add-ons

In the past decade a new generation of photographers has directed the documentary approach toward more personal ends. Their aim has been not to reform life, but to know it. ―John Szarkowski

In 1967, The Museum of Modern Art presented New Documents, a landmark exhibition organized by John Szarkowski that brought together a selection of works by three photographers whose individual achievements signaled the artistic potential for the medium in the 1960s and beyond: Diane Arbus, Lee Friedlander and Garry Winogrand.

Though largely unknown at the time, these three photographers are now universally acknowledged as artists of singular talent within the history of photography. The exhibition articulated a profound shift in the landscape of 20th-century photography, and interest in the exhibition has only continued to expand. Yet, until now, there has been no publication that captures its content.

Published in celebration of the 50th anniversary of the exhibition, Arbus Friedlander Winogrand features full-page reproductions of the 94 photographs included in the exhibition, along with Szarkowski’s original wall text, press release, installation views and an abundance of archival material. Essays by curator Sarah Hermanson Meister and critic Max Kozloff, who originally reviewed the exhibition for The Nation in 1967, critically situate the exhibition and its reception, and examine its lasting influence on the field of photography.

Editorial Reviews

Review

MOMA‘s new book not only pays tribute to the landmark show but also provides the exhibition catalogue that never was: the book includes installation shots and Szarkowski’s seminal wall text alongside every picture that was displayed. ― The New Yorker

It’s hard to overestimate the influence that these modest, slice-of-life scenes would have on subsequent generations of photographers. ― The New Yorker

A good book about a watershed moment in photography

Reviewed in the United States on August 3, 2019

Verified Purchase

In 1967 the Museum of Modern Art in NYC had a photo exhibit that changed the way people and collectors saw photography. The exhibit involved photos from three not well known street photographers. At the time MOMA did not put out a catalogue but 50 years later they righted that wrong and because it is 50 years later they were able to give historical context to the work. This book is well done, the 94 photos that were in the show are all included and printed full page with good reproduction quality. All in all this is a good book and if you are interested in the history of photography, street photography or just want a snapshot of a moment in photographic history that launched three careers this book is probably for you.

Burnt Out

Necessary Reading

Reviewed in the United States on April 9, 2017

Verified Purchase

I was a fan of all three photographers and wanted a document of this important show. The book starts off with an essay about the show and how it came together followed by a few reviews.

The images themselves are printed largely and beautifully. First Arbus then Friedlander and lastly Winogrand. Arbus's section to me is the strongest and has a good proportion of my favorite works by her. Winogrand' section has "World's Fair" but misses on some his great later works.

The book ends on more details of the show. I'd highly recommend this book as an introduction to all three artist and important period in photography. The production, content and quality of the book are great.

Thank goodness for this reprint

Reviewed in the United States on May 26, 2019

Verified Purchase

Since I was not old or able enough to be in NYC for this exhibition, I thoroughly enjoyed the vicarious travel back in time to this momentous grouping of then-emergent talent. In addition to seeing the early works of Arbus, Friedlander, and Wingorand, there is an appendix that contains interesting ephemera, such as Arbus's editorial remarks on the guest list; the budget for the opening reception; and other geeky type info.

Outstanding - the perfect fix for an almost tragic gap in photography literature

Reviewed in the United States on September 24, 2017

Verified Purchase

You can’t read about art photography in America for very long before someone mentions the New Documents exhibition of 1967. Trouble is, there was no catalog printed, probably for budgetary reasons. For the 50th anniversary of the show, MoMA fixed that but good with this volume. Even if you know all the exhibition images you need this book, because it comes as close to recreating the experience of being at the show as anything short of time travel ever will. An absolute must for any serious collection.

lux evidence

not the expected print quality of reproducted photographs

Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2019

That's a much needed publication for a long time and it's good that it finally happened. It has a lot of first seen documents about the exhibition and some good current texts about it. And it's great to be able to see the original selection from all three photographers but, at least in my copy, many photographs are more dark than they should be (with almost no detail in the shadows). And that (the quality of the reprinted photographs) is something that I have noticed to be problematic (or at least not in the level that it should be) in other publications of MoMA too.

An exhibition book created decades after the event and not too late

Reviewed in Canada on September 4, 2021

Verified Purchase

Super historical document of an exhibition at MOMA, which provides great context to the work of these three photographers. I think Arbus is by far the most interesting. I wanted more of Arbus and although there are some repeats, it is well worth having both this and her "An Aperture Monograph".

Andy Norman

Great historical document

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 19, 2021

Verified Purchase

Well made and printed, good sized, book with some great images and plenty of historical context. Loses a star merely because I personally found too many of the photographs uninspiring (and I'm uncertain of the ethics of Arbus's work).
