This is the first definitive history of the artist’s remarkable body of work as filtered through the lens of the most important critics and art historians of her—and our—time, Diane Arbus Documents assembles articles, criticism, and essays from 1967 to the present, charting the reception of the photographer’s groundbreaking work.⁣

Over the decades, critics and writers have described her work as both “sinister” and “appalling” as well as “revelatory,” “sincere,” and “compassionate.” This volume offers comprehensive insight into the critical conversations and misconceptions that surround the artist and her work.⁣

Copublished by David Zwirner Books and Fraenkel Gallery, the book coincides with Cataclysm: The 1972 Diane Arbus Retrospective Revisited, an exhibition organized at our W 20th Street gallery to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the artist’s 1972 posthumous retrospective at The Museum of Modern Art.⁣
