"Alexey Brodovitch: Astonish Me." is a collection of works by Alexei Brodovitch (1898-1971), a Russian-born art director based in the United States. This first edition, published by Yale University Press, offers a comprehensive reexamination of his legacy of visual editing innovations from a contemporary perspective. Brodovitch, who revolutionized the layout of Harper's Bazaar and guided many young photographers, is known for significantly influencing the trends of modern design. Based on his motto, "Astonish Me," this book reexamines his key projects, including the experimental magazine Portfolio and his boldly composed depictions of ballet in Ballet, and offers a new perspective on his collaborations with Irving Penn and Avedon. This first edition offers a fresh perspective, exploring the core of 20th-century photographic expression and design.
