Art Kane was one of the most profoundly influential photographers
of the twentieth century. A bold visionary, his work explored a
number of genres - fashion, editorial, celebrity portraiture,
travel, and nudes with an unrelenting and innovative eye. Like his
contemporaries, Guy Bourdin (1928-1991) and Helmut Newton
(1924-2004), Kane developed a style that didn't shy away from
strong color, eroticism and surreal humor. In 1958 Kane assembled
the greatest legends in jazz and shot what became his most famous
image, Harlem 1958. In the 1960s and 1970s, Kane photographed,
among others, the Rolling Stones, The Who, Cream, Janis Joplin, The
Doors and Bob Dylan. While the battle for civil rights in America
and the Vietnam War raged, Kane was refining a conscientious
response to the period with his editorial work that was powerfully
accessible and populist in its desire to communicate to a large
audience. This is the first time Kane's work has been collected
into one, breathtaking volume. Beautifully curated, it is a fitting
tribute to one of photography's most original and creative forces.
This book is a comprehensive compilation of all the problems and

collaboration. Any student interested in mathematics--whether
looking to prepare for contests or, even more importantly, to

unique and pertinent collection of meaningful problems and
solutions.
