Eugene Smith’s Pittsburgh project.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e In 1955, having just resigned from his high-profile but stormy career with \u003ci\u003eLife Magazine\u003c\/i\u003e, W. Eugene Smith was commissioned to spend three weeks in Pittsburgh and produce one hundred photographs for noted journalist and author Stefan Lorant’s book commemorating the city’s bicentennial. Smith ended up staying a year, compiling twenty thousand images for what would be the most ambitious photographic essay of his life. But only a fragment of this work was ever seen, despite Smith's lifelong conviction that it was his greatest collection of photographs.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e In 2001, Sam Stephenson published for the first time an assemblage of the core images from this project, selections that Smith asserted were the “synthesis of the whole,” presenting not only a portrayal of Pittsburgh but of postwar America. This new edition, updated with a foreword by the poet Ross Gay, offers a fresh vision of Smith's masterpiece.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40929490305121,"sku":"9780226824833","price":40.73,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_28233954.jpg?v=1722469165","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9780226824833-dream-street","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
