"Accompanying the eponymous exhibition at the Philadelphia Museum
of Art through January 4, this 372-page opus reframes Paul Strand’s
role in American modernist photography. Central is an excellent
essay by Amanda N. Bock that focuses on his political work of the
1930s through ’50s. Bock argues that this work—from multimedia
documentary and polemical films to books pairing photographs and
text—fulfills Strand’s declaration of “the artist who is also a
citizen,” who raises awareness, builds community, and creates
collaborative art."—Greg Lindquist, The Brooklyn Rail, Top Ten Art
Books of 2014
