Winogrand: Figments From The Real World

This book, published to accompany a retrospective exhibition at The Museum of Modern Art, is the first comprehensive overview of the work of Garry Winogrand. It contains an eloquent and important essay on the life and work of the photographer by John Szarkowski and a lavish plate section presenting the photographs thematically under the following titles: Eisenhower Years, The Street, Women, The Zoo, On the Road, The Sixties, Etc., The Fort Worth Fat Stock Show and Rodeo, Airport, and Unfinished Work. Many of the 179 plates are works that have never before been published; and the last section includes twenty-five pictures chosen from the enormous body of work that Winogrand left unedited at the time of his death in 1984.
