The publication of Diane Arbus: An Aperture Monograph in 1972—along with the posthumous retrospective at The Museum of Modern Art—offered the general public its first encounter with the breadth and power of her achievements. The response was unprecedented. The monograph, composed of 80 photographs, was edited and designed by the painter Marvin Israel, Diane Arbus' friend and colleague, and by her daughter Doon Arbus. Their goal in producing the book was to remain as faithful as possible to the standards by which Arbus judged her own work and to the ways in which she hoped it would be seen. Universally acknowledged as a photobook classic, Diane Arbus: An Aperture Monograph is a timeless masterpiece with editions in five languages, and remains the foundation of her international reputation. A half century has done nothing to diminish the riveting impact of these pictures or the controversy they inspire. Arbus's photographs penetrate the psyche with all the force of a personal encounter and, in doing so, transform the way we see the world and the people in it. Review: Great photo book. Very informative - My girlfriend has her 4 year degree in fine art/photography and she loves this book. Diane Arbus was especially unique in that she is the classic form of a "turn around". She was a known fashion photographer that literally turned her work around and started taking pictures of average to normally unseen people in their everyday lives. Some of it people may think was a slight weird but myself as a musician appreciates every photo in this book. They are all very interesting. It's very unfortunate that she only got serious recognition after her suicide. I would recommend this book to literally anyone to be honest but most people wouldn't want to spend the money on an art book. It's a great collection of photos that I found very interesting and I'm sure you would find very cool as well. If you like Arbus's work, I definitely recommend this book to you.
