Photography after Robert Frank.

THIS VIDEO: Today I want to look at Robert Frank’s legacy - how the he and his book, The Americans changed photography and photographers forever. So much has been said and written about his work - making it difficult to talk about him without repeating the same information. His impact stretches beyond street photography, documentary and photojournalism. Those are the obvious genres that one thinks about when considering the influence made by the 83 images that make up his landmark publication. But it isn’t just the look and feel of his photographs that has been transformational. When he set out on his road trips across America he was staging an assault on the photographic conventions that governed the actual reason why photographs were produced. He discarded the neat, polished aesthetic of Eve Arnold, Irving Penn and Richard Avedon
