Details

In celebration of the highly anticipated Paul Strand in Mexico—an exquisitely printed volume of photographic works made by Strand during his 1932–34 trip to Mexico, as well as his second journey in 1966—Aperture is pleased to offer this amazing collection in a special box set. Housed in a beautiful, clothbound box, this compilation includes the Paul Strand in Mexico monograph and six limited-edition photogravures of images selected from Strand's original Mexican portfolio. Available in group form for the first time ever, each print is accompanied by interweaving vellum text overlays. This very special offer is limited to forty boxed sets.

Paul Strand (born 1890, New York; died 1976, Orgeval, France) is one of the great photographers of the twentieth century. As a youth, he studied under Lewis Hine at the Ethical Culture Fieldston School, going on to draw acclaim from such illustrious sources as Alfred Stieglitz. After World War II, Strand traveled around the world—from New England to Ghana, France to the Outer Hebrides—to photograph, and in the process created a dynamic and significant body of work.
