Robert Frank’s The Americans was first published on May 15, 1958 by Robert Delpire in Paris. It featured 83 of Frank’s photographs taken in America in 1955 and 1956, accompanied by writings in French about American political and social history selected by Alain Bosquet. Delpire’s Les Américains formed part of the Encyclopédie essentielle series, which presented foreign countries to a French audience. Each of Frank’s photographs in this edition is placed on a right-hand page, with the texts on the left-hand pages.
The first English edition of The Americans was published in 1959 by Grove Press in New York. It presented the same photographs as the Delpire edition, however a text by Jack Kerouac replaced the French writings. The book begins with Kerouac’s introduction, followed by Frank’s photographs in the same sequence as the Delpire edition. On the left-hand pages are short captions from Frank, which describe the location.
Since 1959 The Americans has been reprinted by different publishers, in multiple languages and formats. Frank has had varying influence on these editions; some were printed without his input, approval or knowledge. In July 2007 the Steidl edition of The Americans was printed. Frank was involved in every step of its design and production. The 83 photographs were scanned in tritone at Steidl’s digital darkroom from vintage prints in Frank’s collection, which revealed that many images in past editions were actually crops of the originals. For the Steidl book Frank studied and revised these crops and in many cases included the full photographs; in only a few cases the Delpire and Grove Press compositions remain.
The Steidl edition also reproduces two photographs printed from negatives different to those used for all previous editions. These photographs depict the same two subjects as in other editions (Metropolitan Life Insurance Building–New York City and Assembly Line–Detroit), but from a slightly different perspective.
Kerouac’s text and Frank’s captions remain unaltered from the Grove Press edition, the typography however was redesigned. As well as revising the book’s design, Frank also chose the paper, endpaper and book linen. He opted for a thread-stitched book, and conceived a new dust jacket made from the same paper as in the book (Xantur 170 g from Scheufelen, Germany), sealing it with a simple varnish. Frank personally oversaw printing on July 18, 2007, inspecting and approving each sheet at Steidl’s press in Göttingen.
In January 2009 the National Gallery of Art, Washington, will celebrate the 50th anniversary of "The Americans" with an exhibition that will examine both the construction of the book and the photographs themselves. All 83 photographs published in "The Americans" will be presented in the order established in the book, providing a detailed examination of the book's roots in Frank's early work and the impact on his later art.

《世界名画家:常玉》内容简介：常玉，号幼书，1901年生人，祖籍四川顺庆。少年时随父习画，曾师从四川大儒赵熙，习书法。1918年赴日本观摩艺术，结识王季冈。1919年返上海，于“一心”公司设计牙刷包装，乃识图案。1921年响应蔡元培“勤工俭学”号召，与王季冈等赴法留学。在法期间，与徐悲鸿、蒋碧微、庞薰琹、潘玉良、邵洵美、梁宗岱、徐志摩等过从甚密，并与其后享誉世界的毕加索、勃拉克、贾科梅蒂、藤田嗣冶、马蒂斯等交往密切。画油画、版画、漆画以及水墨，并作雕塑，以颇富东方意韵的方式参与20世纪的艺术变革，活跃在当时已是世界艺术中心的巴黎。常玉的作品风格简约瑰奇，多以人体、动物、花卉为题，富有隐喻。1966年在巴黎寓所意外死亡，享年65岁。从1921年去国，仅回乡二次，客死他乡，应是遗憾。常玉善烹饪，并曾发明推广“乒乓网球”，但无果而终。留有素描、水彩、油画、版画、漆画、雕塑等作品一千余件，其生前未有作品结集面世。
常玉性格孤傲，不媚世俗，我行我素，风流倜傥，一生寂寂，不为金钱所役。初到巴黎时家境殷实，生活优裕，可不为画所累。然20世纪30年代之后，家业败落，又卖画无门，亦时或为钱困扰。一生之绘画可分为“粉色时期”与“黑色时期”，均采用线条描绘，卓然不群。有评论说：分不清是巴黎画派滋养了常玉，还是常玉影响了巴黎画派，他们殊途同归，演绎了一个时代的共同追求。

-书籍简介-
在对女性形体无限的颂赞中，阿梅迪奥•莫迪里阿尼（1884 — 1920）在艺术史中留下了被拉长的形体、杏仁状的眼睛还有他自己的名字。观者通过惊艳、性感和天鹅般的漂亮脖颈一眼就能认出这是来自他画笔之下忧郁的女性人物。
莫迪里阿尼的独特人像与他对美学独到的理念遥相呼应，同时也吸收了诸多流派的视觉元素，例如当代的立体主义、非洲雕塑、柬埔寨雕塑和13 世纪的意大利绘画。尽管莫迪里阿尼的裸女画像很出名，他在为巴勃罗•毕加索、让•谷克多和柴姆•苏丁等几位男性艺术家绘画的肖像中也使用了相似的画风技法。
本书通过莫迪里阿尼极富个人魅力的画册中的多张主要作品，介绍了他在巴黎早期现代主义温床的核心领域短暂却又卓越的艺术生涯。
