Description from the seller

Indian Circus

Mary Ellen Mark
Chronicle Books /1993/English/262×292mm/Ex-Library Copy

“Indian Circus” is a photo book by Marie Ellen Mark, one of America’s leading female photographers. Marie Ellen Mark is best known for *Streetwise*, the book that served as the basis for the film *Streetwise* (directed by her husband, Martin Bell), which is set in Seattle and centers on street children who, deprived of parental love, resort to theft, fighting, and sometimes prostitution. As a photojournalist, she has created documentary works with strong social messages, focusing on people living on the margins of society—such as the mentally ill, sex workers, circus performers, and the homeless. This book stands alongside *Streetwise* and *Ward 81* as one of Mark’s masterpieces; it is a collection of photographs of circus troupes taken across the United States around 1990. It features a collection of magnificent works that are every bit as impressive as the circus photographs left behind by renowned photographers such as Bruce Davidson and Izis.
