The Essential Herbert List: Photographs 1930-1972
This monograph on List's oeuvre presents all phases of his work: the early fotografia metafisica; his Greece photographs blending Antiquity, Mediterranean light and Eros in visions of Classical Hellas; his sensitive homoerotic pictures; his artist portraits of the 40s through to the 60s; and the human-interest photography of his late work. Essays explore List’s particular interests and the photo-historic context of his oeuvre. Includes List’s Writings on Photography 1943-1973. Preface by Bruce Weber. Contributions by Herbert List, Gunter Metken, Ulrich Pohlmann, Edmund White, and Wilfried Wiegand. First edition, softback, 327 pages.
