Ottawa: National Gallery of Canada, , 1990. Brossura (wrappers). Molto buono (Very Good). Catalogo della mostra itinerante tenutasi presso: Ottawa 1990-1991, New York 1991, San Francisco 1991, Vancouver 1991, Boston 1991, Colonia 1992. A cura di Thomas Ann. Testo di Thomas Ann. 325 fotografie in bianco e nero di Lisette Model. Bibliografia, Biografia, Catalogo delle opere esposte. 4to (cm 30 x 23). pp. 362. Molto buono (Very Good). Prima edizione (First Edition). “One question concerned the possibility of undertaking a major Lisette Model retrospective. This led me to examine the entire archive, including many images that had not benn put before the public eye, and consequently to discover a depth and breadth in her vision that made a more profound exploration pf her art and life seem to be a necessity. In producing an exhibition and a book that draw heavily from the raw contents of the archive (photographic prints, negatives, teaching notebooks and correspondance), I have aimed to present a fuller and more accurate picture of her accomplishments as a photographer and teacher than has so far been made, and to provide a glimpse into a life lived with passion, commitment, and humor, but marked more deeply by pain than she would have led anyone to believe". (Thomas Ann).
The 325 duotone illustrations include both her well-known work from the Promenade des Anglais and Lower East Side series, and numerous images - of the blind, the aged, of animals, jazz singers, herself - which appear here for the first time. Author Ann Thomas draws extensively from never-before-published material from the Model archives, held at the National Gallery of Canada. These include correspondence, interviews, writings, and notebooks from a career that spanned fifty years of work in Europe and America.
