Diane
Arbus: Family Albums
by Anthony W. Lee, John Pultz
Book Description Diane Arbus (1923-1971) is renowned for her provocative
and unsettling portraits of modern Americans. This book presents a significant
body of previously unpublished pictures by Arbus and proposes a radically
new way to understand her goals, strategies, and overall work. Diane Arbus:
Family Albums examines unknown contact sheets from several of Arbus's portrait
sessions, including more than three hundred photographs she took of a New
York family one weekend in 1969. Anthony W. Lee and John Pultz put to the
test Arbus's claim that she was developing a "family album." They present
other images Arbus shot for Esquire magazine (including pictures of the
families of Ricky Nelson, Jayne Mansfield, and Ogden Reid) and discuss
her interest in photographic groupings of both traditional and alternative
families. Challenging common interpretations of Arbus, the authors reveal
a photographer far more savvy with the camera, more aware of photography
as an artistic and commercial practice, and more sensitive to the social
and cultural tensions of the 1960s than has been acknowledged before.
