Reviews

[Dan Downing · Rating 5 out of 5]

Even without Vicki Goldgerg's inciteful and engaging text, this must be a 5 Star effort due to the photographs. In addition to Bourke-White's work, there are a number of photos used to set the period and contrast her work.
Goldberg wrote the 1986 biography of Bourke-White and supplied the text for this collection of photographs which were in a traveling exhibition 1988-1990.

Love the photos in here. So cool how she photographs industrial
objects, some of them huge, puts them into scale with people, AND
can even make these things look beautiful.
