Sometimes, words fail to describe the impact of the artists who have altered the medium. Robert Frank's phenomenal work, thus, falls in this league of legends. A man who needs no introduction, Frank opened pathways of possibilities when it came to visual storytelling.
Although his first photo book, The Americans, was not exactly well received at the time of its first unveiling, today, it tells a different story. Unflinching and poetic, Frank, an outsider, saw America in all hues and shades; for that, he will always be remembered. Despite his life encompassing varied art forms, The Americans remains the only relic of his legacy. To ensure that his heritage doesn't offer a one-dimensional perspective of a man with many talents, the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) has announced a new exhibition, Life Dances On: Robert Frank in Dialogue, which portrays his foray into interdisciplinary art. . thephoblographer.com
