"Aaron Siskind Another Photographic Reality" is a collection of works by Aaron Siskind, one of America's leading photographers. Siskind teaches with Harry Callahan at the New Bauhaus (Illinois Institute of Technology) in Chicago, and has students such as Yasuhiro Ishimoto, Ray K. Metzker, and Joseph Sterling. Self-taught photography began in the 1930s, initially producing social documentaries set in New York such as Harlem, but after the 1940s his style changed dramatically. Focusing on the details of things that everyone overlooks, such as wall graffiti, peeling paint and posters, and the texture of natural objects, he creates works that are like subjective abstract paintings. Since then, Siskind has been engaged in graphically expressing the silent messages emitted by these works without setting themes for his works, and has had a great influence on artists such as Willem de Kooning and Robert Rauschenberg. I was. This book is a collection of works published on the occasion of exhibitions held in the United States and France from 2014 to 2015, and contains many illustrations that tell the above-mentioned Siskind.
