Description
Diane Arbus : Magazine Work is a collective portrait of sixties' style and culture. It reveals an artist who posed no artificial boundary between "art" and the "paying job," and who chose, regardless of the outlet, to put her own uncompromising, indelibel stamp on our visual imagination--Jacket.Tags

The photographs here vary between being haunting and enchanting--all are affecting. Having Arbus' text about the photographs, particularly in the first half of the collection, is an added treasure that brings to life many of her characters, all of whom are just as unbelievable as some of the portraits shown here. This is, in truth, a fascinating and wonderful collection that acts as a step back in time. Absolutely recommended.
Exhibition held at the Spencer Museum of Art, January 22-March 4, 1984
In "Magazine work" van de Amerikaanse fotografe Diane Arbus staat een selectie van de foto's die zij in opdracht van verschillende tijdschriften heeft gemaakt. Mooie portretfoto's, maar lang niet zo opzienbarend als haar vrije werk.
