Description: "The approximately fifty plates featured in In Focus: August Sander are some of the most striking from the J. Paul Getty Museum's more than twelve hundred pictures by the artist. Commentary about the images is provided by Claudia Bohn-Spector, an independent scholar and curator. She is joined in discussing Sander's career by Hilla Becher, Gabriele Conrath-Scholl, David Featherstone, Sander Gilman, Ulrich Keller, Weston Naef, and Joan Weinstein, all participants in a 1998 colloquium on the photographer.

A chronological overview of Sander's life provides a factual framework for this fascinating conversation."--BOOK JACKET.
