內容簡介

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during the 1950s through the 1970s in New York, Chicago, and on her travels around the country—almost exclusively unpublished and including her previously unknown color work.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

包裝有點簡陋，角都壓壞瞭…

喜歡的攝影師作品，就是京東包裝要加強，隨便拿個袋子就裝貨瞭，比amazon做的差。

有深度，有內涵，非常值得一度，已經看瞭一半瞭，這個係列的書都很好

比**上麵都便宜，太好瞭

這本攝影畫冊在購物車裏很長時間瞭。這次終於趕上比較給力的活動，幾乎半價購買的，心滿意足！

換瞭一次還是有些瑕疵，懶得再換瞭，京東書籍包裝要好好改進

（然後繼續吐槽京東的包裝，現在都已經不奢望能好好包裝的程度瞭，加個泡沫墊和硬包裝很難麼）

就是我英文不怎麼好。要娶個英文好的瞭。

完美、外國齣版的書質量就是好、還有好多網上沒有的圖
