Robert Frank's "The Americans" Celebrated at San Francisco MoMA

Numberless photographers take memorable pictures now and then, but few can claim, as Robert Frank can, to have rerouted their art form. "Looking In: Robert Frank's 'The Americans' " at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art celebrates the 50th anniversary of the publication in the United States of his most influential book.

"Looking In" includes the 83 pictures that made up "The Americans," grouped and ordered as Frank intended, plus some works that preceded and followed them, and some of the scores of contact sheets from which he culled the definitive selection.

Read the complete review in The San Francisco Chronicle.
