Rezension zu „Whiston Spirn, A: Daring to Look “
"A thoughtful and meticulously researched account of Lange's career.... Spirn, a photographer herself, traces Lange's path, visiting her locations and subjects in a fascinating series of 'then and now' shots." - Publishers Weekly "Dorothea Lange has long been regarded as one of the most brilliant photographic witnesses we have ever had to the peoples and landscapes of America, but until now no one has fully appreciated the richness with which she wove images together with words to convey her insights about this nation. We are lucky indeed that Anne Whiston Spirn, herself a gifted photographer and writer, has now recovered Lange's field notes and woven them into a rich tapestry of texts and images to help us reflect anew on Lange's extraordinary body of work." - William Cronon, author of Nature's Metropolis "These images endure, not as relics of the past but as vital, living documents. We stare, the images stare back, and recognition flashes in our eyes." - Louis P. Masur, Los Angeles Times"
