Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: No Dustjacket. Weegee the Famous, as he liked to be called, was a major influence in the field of newspaper photography. Persistent and aggressive behind the camera, he always made sure that he was at the forefront of breaking news. As a photographer he went to the heart of ugly situations to illustrate the often gruesome realities of life in the city.Weegee's images scream at their audience. An assault to the eyes was created through his use of the flash's severe light; the harsh contrasts and deep shadows that resulted gave his images an extra jolt. Concerned more with the impact of his images than with the artistry, Weegee favored a tone of sarcasm and irony with a touch of compassion in his work. This volume in the Masters of Photography series includes forty-one of Weegee's most powerful photographs that have an unsettling beauty, as well as the permanent power of unique images that, once seen, are never erased. The Aperture Masters of Photography series is devoted to those individuals whose achievements have accorded them vital importance in the history of the art form. Each volume presents a selection of the artist's greatest images. Published in Aperture's standard of excellence, the Masters of Photography series provides a comprehensive library of the artists who have shaped the medium.
Paperback. Condition: New. For Naked City, his first collection, Weegee cruised the streets of 1940s New York in the wee hours in search of the sensational. Lewd, louche, licentious but always brimming with life (except when brimming with death), Weegee's photographs have endured decades of modern art criticism and are again enjoying a much-deserved cult revival.

paperback. Condition: Very Good. Minor shelf wear, front cover has a sticker remnant at the bottom, binding tight, pages clean and unmarked. Weegee (Arthur Fellig) photographed the undercurrent of big-city life with a love of the sensational. He captured not the fires, but the firemen; not the gun-men, but their corpses; not the fascinated spectators at calamites, but the agonized, shocked victims. His photographs of unabashed suffering, boisterous joy and boiling laughter have an unsettling beauty, as well as the permanent power of unique images which, once seen are never erased.

One looks at Weegee's pictures before and after they were collected and assesses how his practice of tabloid photography was inseparable from his own lowbrow appeal. The other essay examines the leftist journalism world in 1930s and '40s New York and shows how this world helped shape the photographer's vision.

Lee and Richard Meyer. 144 pages; b&w reproductions throughout; 6 x 8 inches. Condition: A bump to the back, slightly warping the text block, otherwise a Fine/As New paperback.
