Born into a prosperous Boston family, Alvin Langdon Coburn was given his first Kodak camera at the age of eight. His serious photographic career began before the age of twenty, when an exhibition of American photography opened at the Royal Photographic Society with nine of his photos. In 1902 Coburn moved to New York City, where he became reacquainted with Edward Steichen and met Alfred Stieglitz and Gertrude Kasebier for the first time. Kasebier became Coburn's teacher in those first years, and Stieglitz his mentor and promoter. In 1904 Coburn settled in London, where he became known for his photographs of prominent people, especially artists and writers. In his early years he also photographed a number of abstract cityscapes, but the works for which he is most widely known are his "vortographs", kaleidoscopic images created in the Cubist style. Documenting the full scope of Coburn's work, this important volume delineates the role the photographer played in the early years of the medium and portrays a brilliant career that intersected those of many other luminaries during an exhilarating artistic era.

A key American Pictorialist and a crucial innovator in abstract photography, Alvin Langdon Coburn is a fascinating but often neglected figure in the history of American modernism. As early as 1909, Coburn was making futuristic depictions of New York and Pittsburgh, anticipating modernist architectural photography's classic "bird's-eye" view. In 1912, in New York, working with the Cubist artist-poet Max Weber, he developed this idiom a step further, photographing New York from the pinnacles of skyscrapers. The following year he published Men of Mark, which featured portraits of authors, artists and statesmen, including Henri Matisse, Henry James, Mark Twain and Theodore Roosevelt. In 1914 Coburn relocated to London, participating in the British Vorticist movement, led by Wyndham Lewis and Ezra Pound; Coburn's series of multiple exposures and "Vortographs" were the first truly abstract photographs. So why is Coburn not better known today? After 1920 he deliberately withdrew from the photo world (though he never gave up photography) and retired to rural Wales, where he immersed himself in painting, music composition and Freemasonry. In the 1950s he was rediscovered and championed by Beaumont and Nancy Newhall of George Eastman House, to which he bequeathed almost 20,000 prints and negatives along with cameras, correspondence and ephemera. This beautiful volume, published to accompany a show at George Eastman House and drawing on a wide range of public and private collections, reveals his work and legacy for a new generation. Alvin Langdon Coburn(1882-1966) was born in Boston, Massachusetts, in 1882. He was given his first camera at the age of eight, and quickly developed a precocious talent for both visual composition and technical proficiency. He exhibited frequently in both America and Europe from early on in his career, and published several photobooks, including New York(1912), by which time his international reputation was at its peak (George Bernard Shaw even called him "the greatest photographer in the world"). He died in Wales in 1966.
