中文简介：

为了确保《戴安·阿勃丝：启示录》的持续供应，光圈出版社很荣幸地在1972年阿勃丝在现代艺术博物馆举办的遗作回顾展以及《戴安·阿勃丝：光圈影集》同时出版50周年之际，推出这本意义非凡的书。

本书探讨了阿勃丝摄影的起源、范围和愿望。阿勃丝面对拍摄主题时候的坦诚，以及她对摄影的内在力量的信念，使她的拍摄更加纯粹。在这些标志性影像的背景下，《启示录》重新出版了她的许多不为人所熟知的或以前未发表过的照片，揭示了她对世界微妙而持久的看法。

本书复制了200张全页双色调的戴安·阿勃丝的摄影作品，涵盖了她的整个职业生涯。本书还包括光圈执行董事Sarah Meister的新贡献，以及旧金山现代艺术博物馆荣誉高级摄影策展人Sandra S. Phillips的文章，以及Neil Selkirk对阿勃丝印刷技术的讨论，他是阿勃丝去世后**被授权印刷其照片的人。由旧金山现代艺术博物馆展览的客座策展人Elisabeth Sussman和艺术家的长女Doon Arbus撰写编年表，由300多张额外图片来说明，主要由艺术家的信件、笔记本和其他著作的摘录组成，相当于一种自传的形式，Doon Arbus还撰写了后记。纽约大都会艺术博物馆负责摄影部的馆长Jeff L. Rosenheim编撰了关于摄影师的朋友和同事的传记。这些文字有助于阐明戴安·阿勃丝颇有争议、令人吃惊的观点的含义。

英文简介：

To ensure the ongoing availability of Diane Arbus Revelations, Aperture is proud to release this vitally important volume on the fiftieth anniversary of the posthumous 1972 Arbus retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art and the simultaneous publication of Diane Arbus: An Aperture Monograph.

Revelations explores the origins, scope, and aspirations of Arbus's wholly original voice. Arbus's frank treatment of her subjects and her faith in the intrinsic power of the medium have produced a body of work that is often shocking in its purity, in its steadfast celebration of things as they are. Presenting many of her lesser-known or previously unpublished photographs in the context of the iconic images reveals a subtle yet persistent view of the world.

The book reproduces two hundred full-page duotones of Diane Arbus photographs spanning her entire career. It also includes a new contribution by Sarah Meister, executive director of Aperture, alongside essays by Sandra S. Phillips, senior curator of photography, emeritus, at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, and a discussion of Arbus's printing techniques by Neil Selkirk, the only person authorized to print her photographs since her death. An extensive chronology by Elisabeth Sussman, guest curator of the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art show, and Doon Arbus, the artist's eldest daughter, is illustrated by more than three hundred additional images and composed primarily of excerpts from the artist's letters, notebooks, and other writings, amounting to a kind of autobiography. An afterword by Doon Arbus precedes biographical entries on the photographer's friends and colleagues, compiled by Jeff L. Rosenheim, curator in charge of the Department of Photographs at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. These texts help illuminate the meaning of Diane Arbus's controversial and astonishing vision.
