CookePerhaps everyone who has ever looked at Dianne Arbuss photos has wondered how she feels about her subjects; does she empathize with them or is she exploiting them? The woman who took the pictures is no less confounding. fascinating. and deeply touching.Lubows extensive research and in-depth interviews with many people in Arbuss life. his insightful analysis of her work. his evenhanded history of her life. including its many contradictions. and his sensitive attempt to bring her into as coherent a whole as any complex human being can be made into. make this not just a masterful biography of Arbus but a notable exemplar of the biographical art itself.The biography tells us. of course. not just of one life. but many. including Diannes husband. the photographer and actor. Allan Arbus. And its an exploration of the time when photography grew beyond Steichens galleries into a major force in the New York art world. It gives insight into a critical era in fashion photography and the influence of Arbuss good friend Richard Avedon. And it deals sensitively with her suicide. the heartbreaking finale to her life but not to her fame and influence.It helps too that Lubow is a gifted. lucid writer who manages to work so much of his extensive research into the book without ever wearying the reader.Another reviewer here laments that Lubow didnt obtain rights to Arbuss pictures. which we would of course all like to have in our hands as we read the book. but the rights are impossible to obtain. They are kept under extremely guarded control by Arbuss daughters. You can. however. read the biography with books published by the daughters and thus gain immediate and full advantage of Lubows penetrating analysis.10 of 10 people found the following review helpful. Recommend a great biography and Irsquo;ll read itBy Bio JunkieRecommend a great biography and Irsquo;ll read it. After checking out various reviews of Arthur Lubowrsquo;s Diane Arbus bio I ordered it and sat down to feast upon the photographerrsquo;s fascinating life and unique photographs. This book has it all: itrsquo;s insightful about her art. itrsquo;s beautifully written. and its replete with the kind of detail that comes only when an author has fully grasped the complexities of his/her subject. Lubowrsquo;s descriptions of Arbusrsquo;s photographs are so good that I didnrsquo;t miss the inclusion of photographs. (Goggle them if you must.) This book is a page-turner.6 of 6 people found the following review helpful. I learned a great deal about her professional strugglesBy K. Douglas AndersonNon judgmental and clearly written. I learned a great deal about her professional struggles. Although she worked for magazines like Esquire she remained economically marginal her whole life and had to depend on others. including her ex-husband for support. She is maddeningly self-destructive. I think her suicide was part of the trajectory from the beginning and was essential to her later fame.
