About the Item

The Concerned Photographer 2, Cornell Capa, Editor. Published by Grossman Publishers, New York, 1972. 1st Ed softcover. A collection of the work of six photographers (Werner Bischof, Robert Capa, Andre Kertesz, David Seymour, Dan Weiner and Leonard Freed) whose photography helped keep humanitarian documentary work in the public eye. The book is based on a groundbreaking exhibition at the Smithsonian Institution. Over two hundred photographs by these masters (four of whom died on assignment in the 1950s) are brought together in this book. Included are the full details of the lives and work of these men as they went about their jobs recording moments in history that their eyes and unique talent have elevated to works of concerned art. NPT Books, a division of Trent Antiques, has a large collection of used and out of print books on art, architecture, decoration and antiques with a focus on 1st editions, signed and limited editions.
