"This stirring volume of extraordinary photographs, presenting our times in all their elegance, squalor, courage, hope, betrayal, agony, sacrifice, heroism, and majesty, is as unsparing of its audience as it was unsparing of its photographers. . . . These pictures demand involvement." ―William Manchester, from the text From the grandly historic to the poignantly human, from battlefield violence to the gentle pleasures of peace, In Our Time captures the past fifty years of the world in over three hundred memorable photographs, including many in color.As the distinguished historian William Manchester explains in his provocative text, the book is a distinctive blend of reporting and art that inevitably engages the heart and mind of the viewer. Each picture is a comment upon our experience of the twentieth century.The photographers represented here all belong to Magnum, a collective founded in 1947 to give photojournalists artistic freedom and control over the rights to their work. Magnum's archives are a repository of the masterpieces of photography of the past half-century.Not since the landmark photographic exhibition "The Family of Man" have so many brilliant photographs documented such a range of human experience.

With 65 paintings drawn from the Metropolitan Museum of Art, this exhibition chronicles the development of American still-life painting, from 1915 to 1995. Many prominent artists, including Andy Warhol, James Rosenquist, Georgia O'Keeffe, Jim Dine, Franz Kline, and Marsden Hartley, have incorporated unconventional iconography, subject matter, and painting techniques into the genre, enriching it with layers of meaning previously unavailable to earlier artists. The exhibition is organized by the AFA and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

History & Criticism

Focuses on drawings that grew out of Guston's (1912-1980) interactions and collaborations with poets during the last decade of his life. Long associated with the New York School of painters, in the late 1960s Guston turned from abstract work and began integrating lines, passages and, in some cases, complete poems in his drawings. Bill Berkson, Clark Coolidge, William Corbett, and Stanley Kunitz contribute their recollections of Guston to this volume. Illustrated in b&amp;w with several color plates. 9x11.5" Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
