Jerome Liebling, Photographs
Jerome Liebling. Aperture, $29.95 (108pp) ISBN 978-0-89381-311-6
This stunning retrospective includes 97 black-and-white works from 1947 through 1979, many from Liebling's thematic series: the St. Paul slaughterhouses of 1962; the demolished South Bronx of 1977; the elderly men and women in Miami Beach of the late 1970s. Liebling's unique vision is a courageous, eerie mix of raw brutality and tenderness. (May)
