内容简介

The definitive monograph of American photographer Vivian Maier, exploring the full range and brilliance of her work and the mystery of her life, written and edited by noted photography curator and writer Marvin Heiferman and featuring 250 black-and-white images, color work, and other materials never seen before.

Vivian Maier’s story—the secretive nanny-photographer during her life who becomes a popular sensation shortly after her death—has, to date, been pieced together only from previously seen or known images she made and the handful of facts that have surfaced about her life. During her lifetime she shot more than 100,000 images, which she kept hidden from the world. In 2007, two years before her death, Chicago historic preservationist John Maloof discovered a trove of negatives, and roll upon roll of undeveloped film in a storage locker he bought at auction. They revealed a surprising and accomplished artist and a stunning body of work, which Maloof championed and brought to worldwide acclaim.

Vivian Maier presents the most comprehensive collection and largest selection of the photographer’s work—created during the 1950s through the 1970s in New York, Chicago, and on her travels around the country—almost exclusively unpublished and including her previously unknown color work. It features images of and excerpts from Maier’s personal artifacts, memorabilia, and audiotapes, made available for the first time. This remarkable volume draws upon recently conducted interviews with people who knew Maier, which shed new light on Maier’s photographic skill and her life.

前言/序言

送货快 半价图书 值得一抢l

书本身是不错的，但是京东的服务实在令人气愤，这么贵重的进口书，我画好*买的，竟然连层塑料封皮包装都不给，装箱的时候填充物也是做做样子塞了两张牛皮纸，书在里头咣当的硬壳封面都皱了，纸质的外皮也给撕破口了，气愤！明显就是配货不认真快递不当心嘛！请你们自己站在消费者的角度好好想想，花了不少钱买回来残次品的东西搁谁谁不添堵？！

非常好的一本书，非常喜欢的摄影师，大开本，质量很好

这本书非常不错，人文气息非常浓厚

包装有点简陋，角都压坏了…

一个人喜欢另一个人的时候,看对方的频率会很高,当然可能持续时间短,不过眼睛会不由自主的看向对方

好厚呀

除了边角被磨损其他都还好，另外想说一下京东能不能改善一下包装问题？一个塑料袋包装发过来书本很容易折损的

酷爱摄影不能自拔，送货快，态度好
