WONDERFUL FIRST BIG MONGRAPH about the life and work of Leon Levinstein -
 - IN BRANDNEW CONDITION.

Leon Levinstein (1910-1988) was student of Lisette Model at the 'New York School', like Diane Arbus, Larry Fink, Peter Hujar, Rosalind Solomon or Bruce Weber.

Highly underrated work, highly underrated photobook.
MY HIGHEST RECOMMENDATIONS.

Leon Levinstein was an American street photographer best known for his work documenting everyday street life in New York City from the 1950s through the 1980s. In 1975 Levinstein was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship from the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation.

New, mint, unread; still originally shrink-wrapped in publisher's plastic foil.

Steidl, Gottingen. 2014. First edition, first printing. 

Hardcover with dustjacket. 250 x 312 mm. 328 pages. Photos: Lewon Levinstein. Edited by Bob Shamis and Howard Greenberg. Black and white photos. Language: English. 

Fantastic photobook - in perfect condition.

"American street photographer Leon Levinstein is much admired within the photographic community, but little known outside of it. Solo exhibitions at the National Gallery of Canada in 1995 and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York in 2010 brought him to the attention of many, but his dynamic and original work is yet to achieve the recognition it deserves. 
In 1975, at the age of 65, Levinstein received a grant from the John Simon Guggenheim Foundation. His intention, in his own words, was to photograph "as wide a spectrum of the American scene as my experience and vision will allow". This long-awaited book fulfils this ambitious goal."
