Description

Originally released in 2009, Seven Stories was the first publication of Robert Frank’s Polaroids. Quickly sold-out, it has been a collector’s rarity ever since. This 2024 edition makes the book available again, to a whole new audience. In his later years Frank worked almost exclusively with Polaroids, exploring the collage and assemblage possibilities of the instant photograph. Seven Stories brings together sequences of single images which he compiled to create books of new work. As always the photographs and stories relate to Frank’s life and milieu—his homes in Mabou and New York, perhaps a trip to China or Spain, his friends, still lifes. Seven Stories is an important precursor to Frank’s visual diaries (2010–17), also published by Steidl this season.

Author Biography:

Robert Frank (1924–2019) is an acknowledged master of photography and the photobook. Born in Zurich, he immigrated to the United States in 1947. Frank is best known for his seminal book The Americans, first published in English in 1959, which gave rise to a distinctly new form of the photobook, and his experimental film Pull My Daisy of 1959. Frank’s other important projects include the books Black White and Things (1954), Lines of My Hand (1972), the film Cocksucker Blues for the Rolling Stones (1972), and his visual diaries (2010–17). Steidl has published over 30 of Frank’s books, including his last, Good Days Quiet (2019).
