GOOD DAYS QUIET - ROBERT FRANK KARTONIERT (TB)

In this  Robert Frank's newest book  he both acknowledges and moves beyond his acclaimed visual
diaries (2010-17)  which juxtapose iconic photos from throughout his career with the more
personal pictures he makes today and suggestive  often autobiographical text fragments. In Good
days quiet Frank's focus is life inside and outside his beloved weather-beaten wooden house in
Mabou  where he has spent summers for decades with his wife June Leaf. Among portraits of Leaf
Allen Ginsberg and Frank's son  are images of the house's simple interior with its wood-fuelled
iron stove  humble furniture and bare light bulbs  as well as views of the land and sea by the
house: snow-covered  windswept  stormy or lit by the dying sun. Frank's Polaroids scanned for
the book show various deliberate states of deterioration and manipulation at his hands 
including texts that move from the merely descriptive (watching the crows) to the emotive
(memories  grey sea-old house   can you hear the music). As always in Frank's books  his
message lies primarily in the photos' lyrical sequence  an influential approach to the
photobook pioneered by and today well at home in his 93-year-old hands.
