Capa used the term \"concerned photography\" at the time, to distinguish the ICP's interests from fine-art photography, but the center has since become an umbrella organization for all types of photographic activity and all manner of photography, including anonymous antique prints and fashion photography. This book, which commemorates its 25th anniversary, contains an introduction by ICP curator Ellen Handy and four essays by such perspicacious writers as Diane Johnson and Charles Simic. It also offers thumbnail biographies of the makers of the 145 duotones and 30 color photographs reproduced here. Few of the photographers are represented by their most familiar prints, so there are surprises on nearly every page. There is a sweetly pensive portrait of actress Kim Novak by the often creepy Duane Michals, for example. And while Lisa Fonssagrives, the stunning 1960s fashion model, appears in at least one photograph, it isn't by Irving Penn, her husband and \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eVogue\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e collaborator, whose work is instead represented by a blurry, subtly alarming photograph of Moroccan children running through an empty alleyway. There are some painfully familiar works, however, such as Yasushi Nagao's \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eAssissination of Asanuma\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e and Larry Clark's \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eNaked teenagers injecting amphetamines\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e. The book has one flaw: the table of contents lists only the general rubrics of \"Landscapes,\" \"War and Disaster,\" and the like, and there is no index, so finding a particular photographer's work is not always easy. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003e--Peggy Moorman\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"a-section a-spacing-small a-padding-small\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-cel-widget=\"detailBullets_feature_div\" data-csa-c-id=\"1lth31-hx742h-aoedvz-iws0td\" data-csa-c-is-in-initial-active-row=\"false\" data-csa-c-asin=\"\" data-csa-c-slot-id=\"detailBullets_feature_div\" data-csa-c-content-id=\"detailBullets\" data-csa-c-type=\"widget\" data-feature-name=\"detailBullets\" class=\"celwidget\" id=\"detailBullets_feature_div\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-cel-widget=\"detailBulletsWrapper_feature_div\" class=\"a-section feature detail-bullets-wrapper bucket\" data-template-name=\"detailBullets\" data-feature-name=\"detailBullets\" id=\"detailBulletsWrapper_feature_div\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e— — \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFirst Edition \/ 1999\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eISBN: 0-8212-2625-8\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDetails: Hardcover , 12 1\/4 x 10 1\/4 inches\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Leica Store SF Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53037915570539,"sku":"CM22620-063","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0709\/3256\/2235\/files\/L1000103_afd0cba8-35ec-47ef-be59-22cac7c79ac2.jpg?v=1784846731","url":"https:\/\/camerawest.com\/products\/reflections-in-a-glass-eye-9","provider":"Camera West","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
