ROBERT FRANK Paris

Description

ROBERT FRANK Paris

ROBERT FRANK Paris is the first time that the significant body of photographs Robert Frank made in Paris in the early 1950s have been brought together in a single book.

His visit to Paris in 1951 was his second return to Europe after he had settled in New York City in 1947 and some of the images he made during that visit have become iconic in the medium’s history. The 80 photographs Robert Frank and Ute Eskildsen selected suggest that Frank’s experience of the new world had sharpened his eye for European urbanism. He saw the city’s streets as a stage for human activity and focused particularly on the flower sellers. His work references Atget and invokes the tradition of the flaneur.
