"Diane Arbus: A Chronology" is the closest thing possible to a
contemporaneous diary by one of the most daring, influential and
controversial artists of the twentieth century. Drawn primarily
from Arbus' extensive correspondence with friends, family and
colleagues, personal notebooks and other unpublished writings, this
beautifully produced volume reveals the private thoughts and
motivations of an artist whose astonishing vision derived from the
courage to see things as they are and the grace to permit them
simply to be. Further rounding out Arbus' life and work are
exhaustively researched footnotes that amplify the entire
chronology. A section at the end of the book provides biographies
for 55 family members, friends and colleagues, from Marvin Israel
and Lisette Model to Weegee and August Sander. Describing the
"Chronology" in "Art in America," Leo Rubinfien noted that
"Arbus... wrote as well as she photographed, and her letters, where
she heard each nuance of her words, were gifts to the people who
received them. Once one has been introduced to it, the beauty of
her spirit permanently changes and deepens one's understanding of
her pictures." The texts in "Diane Arbus: A Chronology" originally
appeared in "Diane Arbus: Revelations." This volume makes this
invaluable material available in an accessible, unique paperback
edition for the very first time.
Diane Arbus (1923-1971) revolutionized the terms of the art she
practiced. Three volumes of her photographs have been published
posthumously by Aperture and have remained continuously available.
