{"product_id":"nicholas-nixon-about-forty-years-9781881337423","title":"Nicholas Nixon: About Forty Years","description":"American photographer Nicholas Nixon (born 1947) is best known for \u003ci\u003eThe Brown Sisters\u003c\/i\u003e, his ongoing series of annual portraits of his wife Bebe and her three sisters (recently exhibited and published by The Museum of Modern Art). But Nixon's wider oeuvre has been less well documented. Long overdue, \u003ci\u003eNicholas Nixon: About Forty Years\u003c\/i\u003e will be the first publication to focus on the broader swath of Nixon's more than 40-year career.\u003cbr\u003eIn a published statement about photography written in 1975, Nixon remarked, The world is infinitely more interesting than any of my opinions about it. To present the world as he sees it--in fascinating, precise and often startling detail--Nixon has consistently used unwieldy large-format cameras, with negatives measuring 8 x 10 inches or 11 x 14 inches. His recurring subjects--cities seen from above, people on their porches, landscapes, portraits of the very young and the very old--are woven together throughout his career like the cords of a cable. Nixon's large-format black-and-white photography is simultaneously intimate, technically precise and somehow relaxed. Beautifully designed and with exquisitely reproduced images, \u003ci\u003eAbout Forty Years\u003c\/i\u003e presents the most thorough view yet of this important artist's career.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Fraenkel Gallery\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/24\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781881337423\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.70h x 9.60w x 1.00d","brand":"Nicholas Nixon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42159446196405,"sku":"9781881337423","price":46.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_28a69ff3-e417-4b4d-95ca-b9bcc9b9b2aa.jpg?v=1653968030","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/nicholas-nixon-about-forty-years-9781881337423","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
