"The Americans" Photographs by Robert Frank Art film created from the images of the Photobook by Robert Frank, one of the masterpieces in the history of photography. The photo book that redefined what a photo book could be — personal, poetic, real. First published in 1959, Robert Frank’s masterpiece still holds up — the selection of photos, and their sequence and pacing is fresh, rich, generous, and stunning. Kerouac said, “Robert Frank…he sucked a sad poem right out of America onto film, taking rank among the tragic poets of the world.” www.lensculture.com/articles/robert-frank-the-americans en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Americans_(photography) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Frank
