Blurb
This edition of HOLD STILL - keep going is now the second reprint of the catalogue to Robert Frank's 2001 exhibition of the same name at Museum Folkwang in Essen. The book explores the role of film in Frank's work, and the interaction between the still and moving image that has engaged him since the late 1950s. HOLD STILL - keep going adopts a non-chronological approach, including photographs, film-stills, 35mm filmstrips, as well as photo-montages that present his most famous series alongside less known work. Text, from hand-written phrases on photographs (of which "HOLD STILL - keep going" is but one example) to the dialogues in his films, emerges as a crucial tool, one also central to Frank's visual diaries which comprised his later experiments in bookmaking.
Biography
Robert Frank was born in Zurich in 1924 and immigrated to the United States in 1947. He is best known for his seminal book "The Americans", first published in 1958, which gave rise to a distinctly new form of the photo book, and his experimental film Pull My Daisy (1959). He divides his time between New York City and Nova Scotia, Canada.Notes:
