The personal journals of one of postwar America’s most influential photographers, published for the first time
One of the most significant unpublished texts in the history of photography, Memorable Fancies is the daybooks of Minor White, an artist who played a leading role in shaping the practice of photography in postwar America. Begun in the early 1930s and taking its name from a series of dialogues in William Blake’s The Marriage of Heaven and Hell, these writings are part diary, part photography manual, and part aesthetic treatise. Minor White: Memorable Fancies presents this work in its entirety for the first time, offering an intimate look at the ideas and interior life of one of the most important photographers of the twentieth century.
In this beautifully illustrated volume, the art historian Todd Cronan sheds light on White’s guiding concerns and the intersections between White’s writings and his public practice as a photographer and influential publisher and teacher. White’s journal is accompanied by an array of stunning photographs by White and his contemporaries as well as annotations that provide background and context, illuminating White’s life and career while capturing a vibrant and inventive moment in the history of modern photography.
Challenging our assumptions about photographic agency and the interplay between art and life, Minor White: Memorable Fancies engages deeply with the possibilities of photography, its effect on viewers, and its relationship to chance observation.
