Heinrich Kuhn
German scientist and photographer Heinrich Kühn (1866-1944) was one of the central figures in the establishment of international art photography at the turn of the twentieth century. Having studied botany and medicine, Kühn made his first photograph in the late 1870s, dedicating himself solely to the medium within a decade. He achieved this dedication through the support of American photographers Alfred Stieglitz, Edward Steichen and others. After a meeting in 1904, Stieglitz and Kühn initiated an almost 30-year-long correspondence, ushering in an era of pioneering experimentation with autochrome and other photographic processes. Critical to Kühn's success was an offset process he perfec...
Heinrich Kuehn and His American Circle
This unique volume focuses on the luminous work of an important Austrian photographer. Heinrich Kühn's early Pictorialist works were highly influential, and were exhibited at the Vienna Secession. Gradually, Kühn incorporated the influence of his peers, and moved in the direction of Modernist photography. He was also among the first important photographers to create color images. The publication aims to situate Kühn with regard to both the Viennese avant-garde and the international development of photography as an art form. It explores the close friendship among Kühn and major photographers Alfred Stieglitz and Edward Steichen and showcases photographic prints and autochromes by Kühn and other important photographers

The Subject in Art
Challenging prevailing theories regarding the birth of the subject, Catherine M. Soussloff argues that the modern subject did not emerge from psychoanalysis or existential philosophy but rather in the theory and practice of portraiture in early-twentieth-century Vienna. Soussloff traces the development in Vienna of an ethics of representation that emphasized subjects as socially and historically constructed selves who could only be understood—and understand themselves—in relation to others, including the portrait painters and the viewers. In this beautifully illustrated book, she demonstrates both how portrait painters began to focus on the interior lives of their subjects and how the di...
