Outtakes from The Americans

James Danzinger has posted a nice selection of photos from the Robert Frank show currently at SFMoMA. These are photos that didn’t make the cut for the book but are being used as an example of the editorial process Frank went through while putting it together. I am really looking forward to seeing this show when it comes to the Met.

    I caught this show at the National Gallery of Art here in D.C. and what stood out to me the most were the work prints, and the various drafts he wrote for the Guggenheim Fellowship.

    Seeing the process and the sheer amount of work that went into selecting those final 80-something images for the book we all know and love really inspired me.

    You won’t be disappointed.
