About This Item
Personal Exposures / Elliot Erwitt
W.W. Norton, New York, 1988. First edition. Large square hardcover with 248 duotone photographs.
"Seeing what few others see, and capturing it for all of us, is the essence of Personal Exposures. For this volume Elliott painstakingly culled the work of a lifetime, rediscovering prints he had not seen in years and creating a unified whole that reflects a consistent, mature vision of photography and humanity. Here are men, women, and children in off-guard moments; old people; little girls hamming it up; and even various dogs, who have their own preoccupations. The pictures reflect a lifetime of humorous, ironic observation and sensitivity to the human condition."
Condition: The book is nearly as new, in the dust-jacket. A very faint sign of some dampness affects only the first blank page or two.
Elliott Erwitt (1928 – November 29) was a French-born American advertising and documentary photographer known for his black and white candid photos of ironic and absurd situations within everyday settings. He was a member of Magnum Photos from 1953.
