In 1958, Esquire magazine planned a special issue about American Jazz. Art Kane’s group photo of 57 jazz musicians became the famous photograph Harlem 1958. The reader will learn the inside story about the famous photograph through poetry and vivid illustrations. Author’s Note, Biographies, Source Notes. I loved the idea for this book. I thought it was great that the theme of the poems revolved around that day in the Bronx and all of the musicians that were there. One of the strengths is in the illustrations. The bold colors match the vibrant theme of the book. I like the mixed media because it added texture to the book. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

When Esquire magazine planned an issue to salute the American jazz scene in 1958, graphic designer Art Kane pitched a crazy idea: how about gathering a group of beloved jazz musicians and photographing them? He didn't own a good camera, didn't know if any musicians would show up, and insisted on setting up the shoot in front of a Harlem brownstone. Could he pull it off? In a captivating collection of poems, Roxane Orgill steps into the frame of Harlem 1958, bringing to life the musicians' mischief and quirks, their memorable style, and the vivacious atmosphere of a Harlem block full of kids on a hot summer's day. Francis Vallejo's vibrant, detailed, and wonderfully expressive paintings do loving justice to the larger-than-life quality of jazz musicians of the era. Includes bios of several of the fifty-seven musicians, an author's note, sources, a bibliography, and a foldout of Art Kane's famous photograph. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
