German photographer, Hans Namuth captures artists such as Willem de Kooning, Helen Frankenthaler, Jackson Pollock, and Mark Rothko from 1950 to 1981. From the foreword: "In these memorable collaborations, Namuth is himself nowhere to be seen. This is the key, I think, to his achievement. He does not set the stage, he does not interpret, he does not in any way come between us and the drama of an individual life. Namuth is pure catalyst."
