About this book

Alvin Langdon Coburn: Symbolist Photographer by Weaver, Mike. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780893812409.

Alvin Langdon Coburn (1882-1966) is remembered today as one of photographys early masters and great innovators. This Aperture monograph investigates the unconventional nature of his personal and artistic achievements. Coburns landscapes, cityscapes, portraits, and Vortographs reflect his unprecedented steps towards the creation of a photography of symbol and abstraction. In the accompanying critical essay by Mike Weaver, Coburns life and work is seen as a quest. Freemason, Rosicrucian, and Druid, Coburn embraced occult tradition in a search for spiritual values.
