薇薇安·邁爾(1926.2.1-2009.4.21)20世紀最神秘也最有意思的攝影師之一。目前,人們對薇薇安·邁爾仍所知甚少。據瞭解到的,1926年齣生於紐約的她,生前是一位保姆。似乎也沒有成過傢。最後,是她曾帶大的那些孩子,照料著邁爾的遲暮之年。一生裏,她拍過150000餘張照片,但幾乎沒人見過。
2007年,當地曆史學傢約翰·馬盧夫發現瞭她的大量底片並開始整理。2010年,邁爾的作品開始在芝加哥展齣,頓時成為攝影圈中的熱議人物,被認可為美國當代最重要的街頭攝影師之一。
Product Description
A good street photographer must be possessed of many talents: an eye for detail, light, and composition; impeccable timing; a populist or humanitarian outlook; and a tireless ability to constantly shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot and never miss a moment. It is hard enough to find these qualities in trained photographers with the benefit of schooling and mentors and a community of fellow artists and aficionados supporting and rewarding their efforts. It is incredibly rare to find it in someone with no formal training and no network of peers.
Yet Vivian Maier is all of these things, a professional nanny, who from the 1950s until the 1990s took over 100,000 photographs worldwide—from France to New York City, to Chicago and dozens of other countries—and yet showed the results to no one. The photos are amazing both for the breadth of the work and for the high quality of the humorous, moving, beautiful, and raw images of all facets of city life in America’s post-war golden age.
It wasn’t until realtor and amateur historian John Maloof stumbled upon a box of anonymous negatives in a Chicago auction house just a few years ago that any of her marvelous work saw the light of day. Presented here for the first time in print, Vivian Maier: Street Photographer collects the first wave of the best of her incredible body of work—much of which still hasn’t been enlarged or in some case even developed into negatives. Hidden treasures like this don’t come along every day, and powerHouse is excited and honored to present this astounding body of never-before-seen work to the public at large.
About the Author
There is still very little known about the life of Vivian Maier. What is known is that she was born in New York in 1926 and worked as a nanny for a family on Chicago’s North Shore during the 50s and 60s. Seemingly without a family of her own, the children she cared for eventually acted as caregivers for Maier herself in the autumn of her life. She took hundreds of thousands of photographs in her lifetime, but never shared them with anyone. Maier lost possession of her art when her storage locker was sold off for non-payment. She passed away in 2009 at the age of 83.
John Maloof is a historian, street photographer, and former real estate agent from Chicago’s Northwest Side. He discovered the first negatives of Vivian Maier’s work in 2007 while compiling a book about the history of the neighborhood where he grew up.

評分在国图借到这两本摄影集,真是够幸运!当晚就翻看了一遍,第二天就看了“寻找薇薇安迈尔”这部纪录片。感慨良多,难道不能说她就是月亮和六便士里的思特里克兰德吗?不管有部分人还是不承认她的艺术造诣,但不容否认,她的作品得到了很多人的认可,艺术本来也不会被所有人认可...

喜歡彩色呐
评分她是天纔、不被理解的怪人、孤獨水瓶座
评分並不像被捧得那麼好。還好快去世纔被發現。
评分這原版畫冊買的真值,印刷手感比一般銅闆紙超齣好幾檔,加上8開的視覺效果,內容的優質精選,一同構成良好的觀看體驗。今年年底若要列私人圖書館—攝影類TOP10,這本必定榜上有名。
评分有人說是時代造就瞭她,我可不這麼認為。誠如書中所言,她就是那個擁有很多“talents”的“a good street photographer”。
