Street photography

Women Are Beautiful

€223.00
First edition, with 85 photographic plates depicting women with Winogrand's characteristic spontaneity and "inspired amateurism." "Winogrand was an innovator and one of the most dazzlingly reckless members of what John Szarkowski called photography's 'new generation of primitives…' his style appeared to be no style—effortless, loose, and as uncalculated as a snapshot" (Roth, 192).
Winogrand writes, "I don't know if all the women in the photographs are beautiful, but I do know that the women are beautiful in the photographs." This canonical work of candid and street photography depicts women in ways that counter traditional stereotypes of feminine beauty.
