Condición: Near Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: No Dust Jacket As Issued. BERENICE ABBOTT'S DEFINING PORTRAIT OF A CITY IN TRANSFORMATION. Nearly 100 photographs document New York during the extraordinary physical and social transformation of the 1930s. Abbott's camera moves from skyscrapers and bridges to storefronts, tenements, elevated structures, waterfronts, theaters, and neighborhood streets, recording both monumental architecture and the texture of everyday urban life. Among the subjects are Rockefeller Center under construction, the Bowery, Washington Square, Wall Street, the Flatiron Building, bridges, waterfront districts, movie houses, and tenement streets. Elizabeth McCausland's accompanying text provides the historical and social framework for Abbott's photographs. PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS: AN OBLONG PHOTOGRAPHIC SURVEY OF DEPRESSION-ERA NEW YORK. Oblong softcover, approximately 11.25 by 10 inches. 98 pages. Illustrated throughout with 97 black-and-white photographs by Berenice Abbott. CONDITION: NEAR FINE. No flaws or blemishes of consequence; minimal shelf handling. Binding tight and square. Text and photographic plates clean. A particularly well-preserved example of the large-format softcover edition. HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE: CHANGING NEW YORK - A LANDMARK OF AMERICAN DOCUMENTARY PHOTOGRAPHY. Abbott's project was created in conjunction with the Federal Art Project and recorded a New York being rapidly remade by demolition, modernization, and new construction. The photographs preserve the coexistence of nineteenth-century streetscapes with the emerging vertical metropolis and have become enduring documents of the city's architectural and social history. The significance of the photographs extends beyond documentary record. Abbott brought a distinctly modernist eye to urban change, using perspective, scale, light, and juxtaposition to make the changing city itself her subject. Individual photographs from the project remain important works within the history of twentieth-century American photography. SUBJECTS: Berenice Abbott, Elizabeth McCausland, New York City, Changing New York, American Photography, Documentary Photography, Urban History, Architecture, New Deal, Federal Art Project, 1930s New York, Manhattan, Cityscapes.
