Edward Weston From Nude on Sand, Oceano, 1936
The exhibition, From the Collection of Randi and Bob Fisher, examines the work of many canonical twentieth century American photographers. Since the early 1980s, Randi and Bob Fisher have collected artists in depth, resulting in surveys of work by photography masters Robert Adams, Diane Arbus, William Eggelston, Walker Evans, Lee Friedlander, and Garry Winogrand among many others. The exhibition catalogs the photographic medium as it moves from early Modernism, featuring works by Man Ray, Charles Sheeler, Alfred Stieglitz, Paul Strand and Edward Weston,
through the large-scale contemporary color photography of American artist Richard Misrach and German artists Thomas Struth and Ardreas Gursky. From the Collection of Randi and Bob Fisher follows the exhibition Calder to Warhol: Introducing the Fisher Collection at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. That exhibition, which was on view during the summer of 2010, presented selections from the collection of Doris and Donald Fisher, co-founders of Gap, and parents of Bob Fisher.

Hiroshi Sugimoto, born in 1948 in Japan, currently lives and works in New York and Tokyo. The artist’s career spans over three decades and has often focused on conceptual issues relating to time and memory. Sugimoto is known for innovation in his work, using the camera in various ways to achieve a myriad of images.
Lee Friedlander
Each vintage gelatin silver print in Nude On Sand was produced from negatives made on a single day in 1936 at Oceano Sand Dunes in California.
The content of Sugimoto’s images are as varied as his photographic approach. His repertoire includes Dioramas, Theaters, Seascapes, and Portraits from Madame Tussauds’ wax figures, as well as Architecture, Colors of Shadows and Conceptual Forms.
Bernd and Hilla Becher
Andreas Gursky
Bernd Becher (1931-2007) and Hilla Becher (1934-) first collaborated on photographing the disappearance of German industrial architecture in 1959. Through their collaborative lifetime, they developed the direct, non-emotive ‘dead pan’ photographic aesthetic.
Born in 1955 in Düsseldorf, Germany Andreas Gursky trained at the Folkwangschule in Essen, considered West Germany’s premier training center for professional photographers. While at the Düsseldorf Academy in the 1980s, Gursky studied under Bernd and Hilla Becher.
The Bechers photographed these structures from a single perspective and always with a straightforward, objective point of view. The images are presented side by side, inviting viewers to compare form and function.
Gursky was one of the first pioneers of large-format color photography and digital manipulation. Carefully altering his images digitally, the artist creates spaces that appear much larger than the actual documented subject.

Born in Highland Park, Illinois, Edward Weston (1886 – 1958) moved to California at the age of 21 to pursue a career in photography. Later, as a major advocate of straight photography, he became a champion of hyper-real articulation in image making. Alongside Willard Van Dyke and Ansel Adams, Weston was a founding member of the influential group of the San Francisco-based photographers, f/64.

As teachers at the Düsseldorf Art Academy, the Bechers’ approach was extremely influential on the subsequent generation of German photographers, which include Andreas Gursky, Thomas Ruff, and Thomas Struth.

Diane Arbus
Born in Geldern, Germany, Thomas Struth was a student of the Düsseldorf Academy from 1973 to 1980, where he trained under Bernd Becher. He studied alongside photographers Andreas Gursky, Thomas Ruff and Candida Hofer, who together comprise a group commonly known as the Düsseldorf School of Photography. The Bechers’ formal approach, using strict visual procedures, had a formative influence on the young photographer’s methodology, which is evident in his current practice.
Diane Arbus (1923-1971) began her career in the 1950s as a commercial fashion photographer, working with her husband Allan Arbus. In 1956, she began working independently. Arbus gained recognition as a fine art photographer in the 1960s, often documenting individuals marginalized by society. Her early success was marked by two major achievements: Esquire published one of her photographs in 1960 and in 1967, John Szarkowski included her work in the highly influential New Documents exhibition at MoMA.

Arbus died in 1971. The following year, her retrospective at MoMA would become the most widely attended solo exhibition of an artist in the museum’s history.
William Eggleston
Man Ray
Alfred Stieglitz
Charles Sheeler
William Eggleston was born in 1939 in Memphis, Tennessee. He developed an interest in photography in the early 1960s, learning about the medium through books by Robert Frank, Henri Cartier-Bresson and Walker Evans rather than in a traditional classroom setting. Eggleston began by making blackand-white prints, though he quickly transitioned to experimentation in color technology. This established him as one of the few non-commercial photographers working in color. In 1976, the MoMA mounted Color Photographs, a now celebrated exhibition of works portraying quotidian aspects of everyday life.
Man Ray (1890-1976) was an American artist who played a pivotal role in launching the Dada and Surrealism movements. He worked in several media including sculpture, film and painting.
Alfred Stieglitz (1864-1946) was an influential editor, publisher, patron and dealer in the field of modern photography. His personal artworks, published Camera Work journal and seminal 291 Gallery in New York City all helped to advance the early stages of photography.
Perhaps best known as a painter and founding member of American modernism, Charles Sheeler (1883 – 1965) was also a celebrated photographer. Though he studied in Paris at the height of European modernism, he believed he could not survive making these kinds of paintings in the United States. As a result, Sheeler turned to commercial photography upon his return to the U.S. around 1912, initially photographing buildings for Philadelphia architects. He would continue to focus on architectural subjects in both his paintings and photography, employing a highly focused and detailed aesthetic he labeled Precisionism.
Harry Callahan
Robert Frank
Lee Friedlander
Robert Adams
Detroit-born Harry Callahan (1912-1999), a self-taught photographer, credits a talk given by Ansel Adams in 1941 as pivotal in his decision to become a serious photographer. His works tend to explore everyday subjects such as nature, architecture, city streets and his family. In addition to working as a photographer, he taught at institutions throughout the United States. His wife Eleanor Knapp was a frequent subject of his work; Callahan represented her diversely, mirroring his own experimentation with the medium of photography.
Born in Zurich in 1924, Robert Frank works in both photography and film. He immigrated to New York in 1947, where he worked as an editorial photographer for Harper’s Bazaar. After receiving his first Guggenheim Fellowship in 1955, he traveled around the United States for two years, documenting the American social landscape. Both Frank’s choice of subject matter and aesthetic were considered controversial in the mid-1950s. The resulting monograph, The Americans, included eighty-three images from this series in its initial publication in 1958. This series was recently exhibited throughout the United States in celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of the book’s publication.
Lee Friedlander was born in 1934 in Aberdeen, Washington. He studied photography in Los Angeles in the early to mid-1950s. Soon after, he moved to New York in where he supported himself working for record labels such as Atlantic, shooting the album covers of various jazz musicians. No single subject or genre defines Friedlander’s practice. The display in this space juxtaposes works examining similar subject matters – such as self-portraits, the automobile and the urban landscape – from both his early career, when he worked with a 35mm camera, and later when he began to favor the use of medium format cameras. In 2005, the MoMA presented a major retrospective of Friedlander’s career, including nearly 400 photographs from the 1950s to the present, which traveled to the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art in 2008.
Robert Adams was born in 1937 and is most notably associated with New Topographics, a photographic movement centered on capturing man-altered landscapes. Adams was included in an exhibition of the same name, along with Bernd and Hilla Becher, which was recently reproduced in a traveling exhibition and catalog.
Walker Evans
Paul Strand
Richard Misrach
Aaron Siskind
While on a trip to Europe in the late 1920s, American photographer Walker Evans (1903-1975) began to pursue photography through spontaneous snapshots. In 1935, the Farm Security Administration employed him to photograph workers and buildings in the Southeast. He is best known for documentary-style images from the Great Depression. In 1936, Evans worked with writer James Agee on an article for Fortune magazine about several tenant farm families. The book Let Us Now Praise Famous Men resulted from this collaboration. He worked as a staff photographer and photo editor for Fortune until 1965, when he left the magazine to become a professor of photography and graphic design at Yale University. He continued teaching until a year before his death.
In the 1910s and 1920s, Paul Strand (1890-1976), Alfred Stieglitz and Edward Weston helped define photography in the context of early American modernism. He also worked in film, collaborating with Charles Sheeler on the short film Manhatta in 1920. Strand embraced photography for its inherent strengths and revolutionized the acceptance of straight photography. The final edition of Stieglitz’s Camera Work magazine in 1917 focused exclusively on Strand’s work, signaling a new age in modern photography.
Richard Misrach was born in Los Angeles in 1949, and currently lives and works in the Bay Area. During the 1970s he contributed to the emergence of color and large-scale display within contemporary fine art photography. For the majority of his career, Misrach has addressed the interaction of contemporary society and nature, within a particular interest in the American West. Often times, this work subtly challenges the impact of modern society and nature.
Aaron Siskind (1903-1991) is primarily known for connecting photography to ideas of Abstract Expressionism. His abstract and metaphoric work from the early 1940s reflects his close interaction with prominent Abstract Expressionist painters including Franz Klein, Barnett Newman and Mark Rothko. He played a significant role in shaping the education of emerging photographers, working at Black Mountain College, the Institute of Design in Chicago and the Rhode Island School of Design, often at the invitation of or in collaboration with Harry Callahan.

All of the photographs in this room were made in Paris, and illustrate his diverse approach to photography. In 1922, he began creating “rayographs,” his variation on the photogram. In the late 1920s, he began experimenting with the Sabattier process, a technique where a partially developed print is reexposed to light during processing. Glass Tears (1933), one of his most recognized photographs, exemplifies Man Ray’s early experimentation with staged photography. Interestingly, two of the photographs included in this space can be seen in Self Portrait in the Studio (1925).

Stieglitz’s gallery showcased early twentieth-century avantgarde artists, particularly from Europe, and promoted pictorial photography, an approach indebted to the principles of fine art. He also represented Georgia O’Keeffe, an emerging American painter at the time, who he married in 1924. O’Keeffe became a key inspiration and a recurrent subject in how work. Stieglitz produced hundreds of photographs of his wife over a twenty-year period including the three exhibited here.

Adams’ work is centered on issues of landscape including the documentation of human influence on the American West and the moments of transition within this region. His work is inspired both by his admiration for the intrinsic beauty of nature and his frustration with its degradation.
16
The works shown here are from the series The Pleasures and Terrors of Levitation, a body of work completed from the mid1950s to early 1960s of divers arrested in mid-leap. Siskind made these photographs with a hand-held twin-lens reflex camera along the perimeter of Lake Michigan in Chicago. The juxtaposition of balance and instability in these images is highlighted by the series’ evocative title.
John Gutmann
Helen Levitt
German-born, American artist John Gutmann (1905-1998) initially trained as a painter under the tutelage of the German expressionist Otto Mueller. He began to pursue photography in 1933, shortly before fleeing Germany and settling in the San Francisco Bay Area. Gutmann largely photographed American popular culture, creating images that reflected his experience of his new home. He spent the final years of his life teaching modern art and art history at San Francisco State University.
Helen Levitt (1913 –2009) was born in Brooklyn, New York. In 1931, she began working for a commercial photographer in the Bronx. She is best known for her images of children, which she captured meandering through the streets of Spanish Harlem. Her emblematic image of trick-or-treaters exhibited here was included in the inaugural exhibition of the MoMA’s photography department in 1940.

Garry Winogrand 17
Garry Winogrand (1928 – 1984) was primarily a street photographer known for his documentation of America in the mid twentieth century. Born in New York, he studied photography at Columbia University and photojournalism at the New School for Social Research with Alexey Brodovitch. Winogrand photographed constantly, approaching subject matter such as city streets, people, rodeos, airports and animals in zoos in innovative ways. At the time of his death, Winogrand left behind nearly 300,000 unedited images and more than 2,500 undeveloped rolls of film. In 1967, John Szarkowski curated the exhibition New Documents, which helped launch the careers of Winogrand, Diane Arbus and Lee Friedlander. That single exhibition signaled a change in documentary photography, which until that time was primarily used as a tool for social change.
