In 83 photographs, Frank looked beneath the surface of American life to reveal a people plagued by racism, ill-served by their politicians and rendered numb by a rapidly expanding culture of consumption. Yet he also found novel areas of beauty in simple, overlooked corners of American life. And it was not just Frank's subject matter--cars, jukeboxes and even the road itself--that redefined the icons of America; it was also his seemingly intuitive, immediate, off-kilter style, as well as his method of brilliantly linking his photographs together thematically, conceptually, formally and linguistically, that made \u003ci\u003eThe Americans\u003c\/i\u003e so innovative. More of an ode or a poem than a literal document, the book is as powerful and provocative today as it was 56 years ago.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Steidl","offers":[{"title":"Robert Frank: The Americans | Robert Frank | Hardcover | 9783865215840 | Used: Like New | Back Stacks G 1789405","offer_id":50922225074434,"sku":"1789405","price":68.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/716Q38DQkhL.jpg?v=1793388028","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/robert-frank-the-americans","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
