Marvin E. Newman by Lyle Rexer
The first major career retrospective of this remarkable midcentury street photographer, largely undiscovered beyond a prestigious collector and gallery circle. Some 170 photographs reveal Newmans flawless technique and humanist sensibility through vivid New York cityscapes, riveting sports shots, and other inventive images from across the U.S.
“Is Marvin Newman the US.A.’s most overlooked photographer? TASCHEN offers due recognition to the talent of Marvin Newman, the image-maker who captured the real New York.” * AnOther Magazine *
