Edward Cole Kim Weston: Three Generations of American Photography Details
From Library Journal This catalog for a German exhibition draws together the work of three generations of photographers: Edward Weston, his son Cole, and Cole's son Kim. The catalog consists of brief essays about each artist (Cole contributes the essay about his father) and a selection of their work. Though the reproductions are above average, they are not excellent, and the text is occasionally flawed by poor editing and translations. More distressing are the works themselves?this book only proves that Edward Weston's work has not been equaled by his progeny. Viewing Kim's elaborate allegorical scenarios alongside Cole's technically fine color work and Edward's still-vital nudes convinces the viewer that talent is not necessarily hereditary and a famous name may be more of an obstacle than an advantage in developing one's artistic vision. Given the wide array of books about Edward Weston as well as his inclusion in many surveys of the medium, this present effort is notable only for the opportunity to compare styles across three generations.
