One man's eye

de Alan M. Siegel, Miles Barth

"This volume reflects the eclectic tastes and ardent enthusiasms of one man, Alan Siegel, whose private collection of photographs rivals that of many museums. One Man's Eye features 120 masterworks by Lisette Model, Man Ray, Robert Mapplethorpe, Robert Adams, Ezra Stoller, Robert Frank, Irving Penn, Walker Evans, Erwin Blumenfeld, and Edward Weston, as well as by many important contemporary photographers, including Jan Groover, Tina Barney, Zeke Berman, Tom Baril, Lynn Davis, and Michael Spano. Many of the images shown here have never, or seldom, been published before." "The texts include an introduction to the collection by Robert Sobieszek, a discussion of how the Siegel collection was formed over the past 25 years and commentaries on the individual works by the man whose singular eye gives this work its focus."--BOOK JACKET.
