Duane Michals (Photofile)

I didn't have much information about Duane Michals until a friend spoke to me about him. Bought this little and inexpensive book and was very pleased with both the quality of printing, and the good recollection of Michals work. I probably will buy other photographers as well

This is a little book, but has all the photos of Duane Michals I was hoping for. A nice little comprehensive reference.

I gave it 3 stars because I got it for my daughter as a gift. I am not qualified to review it.

A great collection of Duane Micheal's work. I wish it had more, but this is handy for anyone who just discovered him. : )

This is a great treat. I enjoy everything he does. The book is an affordable version of his work and comes in a very convenient size.

Everything's alright!The book is marvellous and has wonderfully met my expectations.Duane Michaels becomes an instant favourite for anyone

great book, great deal

It's hard to pinpoint the appeal of Duane Michals. Perhaps it is the way he can so easily point out the elephant in the room with no awkwardness in his intent. He has great skill in describing what is commonly called "the human condition" in both photography and story form. Duane Michals is a true expressionist, of which there are few left in this world.This book (of A5 size), though small, features some of Michals best work, some of his earliest work, and some of his most emotive. It should be compulsory in the education of all budding artists and art students. The pictures speak for themselves.

Nice overview of an underrated photographer.

A very portable and accessible introduction to the great mans work.

What someone expects from Photofile series.

Amazing book if you love Michals work

Non molto noto al grande pubblico italiano, Duane Michals - fotografo ancora vivente - si può considerare tra gli innovatori più prolifici dal secondo dopo guerra ad oggi. Noto più per i suoi lavori personali che non per le foto commerciali, Michals si fa conoscere per le sue sequenze fotografiche cui aggiunge didascalie che giudano l'osservatore durante il percorso di lettura. Ispirato da Renè Magritte e Balthus, predilige le atmosfere rarefatte e oniriche. Esecutore di ritratti in posa ma non in studio ad attori e personaggi del jet set americano è anche amico e sodale di Andy Wharol con il quale condivide esperienze e origini, essendo anch'egli di origine ceca.
