"For the photographer and filmmaker Paul Strand (American, 1890-1976), expressing the truth was presenting life as it revealed                                  itself before his camera. This volume in the In Focus series, which is devoted to photographers well represented in the collection                                  of the J. Paul Getty Museum, concentrates on the life and career of this influential artist. It highlights the development                                  of Strand's aesthetic from his early encounters with Cubism to his humanistic depictions of individuals throughout the world,                                  presenting a wide-ranging selection of his powerful work."--Jacket
Un paese : portrait of an Italian village by Cesare Zavattini(                                  Book                                  )

In 1953 the renowned American photographer Paul Strand, who was then living in France, suggested to Italian screenwriter Cesare                                  Zavattini that they do a book together about a small town in Italy, a town that would reveal the spirit of a people. Strand                                  asked Zavattini to choose a village with the elusive "special quality" he sought. Zavattini knew just such a village: his                                  own birthplace of Luzzara, in the Po Valley. The collaboration of these two remarkable artists resulted in the classic book                                  Un Paese. Published in Italian in 1955, and now available for the first time in the English language, Un Paese captures in                                  photographs and in spoken testimony the essential experience of daily life in Luzzara. It presents a series of intense portraits,                                  graceful landscapes, and images of everyday objects. Paul Strand's photographs are carefully distilled, deeply powerful; they                                  contain the flavors and the rhythms of an entire culture crystallized in a single village. Zavattini successfully synthesizes                                  text and image, aligning with the new cinematic trend of the day, a movement known as Italian neorealism. Their Luzzara is                                  an ordinary village, neither overly picturesque nor greatly unusual, yet it is a town sustained by a grounded humanity and                                  a profound love for the land by its people

In Proud Valley an African American sailor comes to a Welsh coal mining town in 1938 and helps re-open the mine at the cost                                  of his life. Native Land, a political semi-documentary formed from staged reenactments, leads viewers on an emotional tour                                  of the pre-World War II U.S. and its freedom-based ideologies and looks at the the forces it sees as threatening to undermine                                  America's strengths from within: greedy capitalists, professional strikebreakers, and the Ku Klux Klan. Robeson on Pacifica Radio: Paul Robeson was denied his U.S. passport from 1950 to 1958 after he refused to sign an affidavit stating that he was                                  not a Communist. During this time, Pacifica Radio interviewed Robeson, allowing him to express his personal history and view                                  of the world. This interview was conducted by host Elsa Knight Thompson and Harold Winkler, president of the Pacifica Foundation
