Frank, Robert

This book brings together two distinct bodies of work to reveal a new understanding of Robert Franks contribution to the history of photography. Juxtaposing the world of money and the world of work in post-war England, Frank photographed London bankers, workers, and children, and Welsh coal miners and their families. These images poetically evoke relationships between the classes during a time of change in Britain. Setting a significant documentary precedent for Franks best known work, "The Americans", "London/Wales" demonstrates the artists early interest in social commentary, the narrative potential of photographic sequencing, and his innovative use of the expressionistic qualities of the medium. Featuring 90 black and white photographs, "London/Wales" tells a timeless story of cities, people, and institutions in transition through emotional, evocative images while revealing Franks struggle to forge a new form of poetic narrative photography
