		Arbus was awarded Guggenheim Fellowships in 1963 and 1966 for her project "American Rites, Manners and Customs." She augmented her images of New York and New Jersey with visits to Pennsylvania, Florida, and California, photographing contests and festivals as well as public and private rituals.

	Camera cell phones - Diane Arbus: Family Albums by Anthony W. Lee, ISBN 0300101465
		Diane Arbus (1923-1971) is renowned for her provocative and unsettling portraits of modern Americans.
		Diane Arbus: Family Albums examines unknown contact sheets from several of Arbus's portrait sessions, including more than three hundred photographs she took of a New York family one weekend in 1969.
		Challenging common interpretations of Arbus, the authors reveal a photographer far more savvy with the camera, more aware of photography as an artistic and commercial practice, and more sensitive to the social and cultural tensions of the 1960s than has been acknowledged before.

		Arbus was interested in exposing the flaw, and her camera gave her licence to privacy, however the cold scrutiny of her camera may have been too much when it was focused upon herself.
		Arbus said famously that most of us live in fear of a traumatic disaster while her subjects had already endured theirs and were, in a sense, aristocrats as a consequence - free from the fear of being unwanted - secure in the knowledge that they most certainly were unwanted.
		Diane Arbus was able to see the beauty in that kind of courage, a kind that would make many of us shudder, and her photos reveals to us the brilliance of it.

	Diane Arbus
		Diane Arbus was born, to a wealthy Jewish family, in 1923.
		Arbus' brilliance was to catch everybody unmasked, at the moment of transition between unconscious repose and practiced, social self-representation.
		Arbus is remembered as a chronicler of freaks -- because that's how she cast herself, and because her suicide casts a garish shadow back on what we presume, maybe too easily, was the freakishness of her inner life.

	Diane Arbus’ Noah’s Ark of Humanity
		The authors tell us, “Typical of Arbus’ interests and sensibilities as a photographer, she sought out men whose claims to fatherhood derived from different forms of authority and public presence.” Photographs of writer Normal Mailer and physician Donald Gatch are representative of this body of work.
		If Diane Arbus had actually gotten the chance to assemble her own Family Album, it would probably have included as wide a range of her work as that found in the exhibition on view at the Portland Museum of Art from June 5 to August 1, 2004.
		Diane Arbus Revelations opens at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, NY on March 8 and runs through May 30 in the 2nd floor Special Exhibition Galleries.

	RelishNow \| Darkness of Diane Arbus
		Arbus' photographs have become such a part of the fabric of American culture that, even if you're not a big fan of photography, it's inevitable that at least one or two of her pictures caught your attention somewhere along the way.
		Arbus talked about creating a "family album" exhibit of her photographs before she died in 1971 after downing barbiturates and slitting her wrists.
		Arbus' photographs could be "documentary" in the sense of not prettying up life for the picture - but she made no effort to be documentary in the sense of trying to be invisible.

		Where Diane Arbus went: a comprehensive retrospective prompts the author to reconsider the short yet powerfully influential career of a photographer whose "fascination with eccentricity and masquerade brought her into an unforeseeable convergence with her era, and made her one of its essential voices."
		For almost four decades the complex, profound vision of Diane Arbus (1923-1971) has had an enormous influence on photography and a broad one beyond it, and the general fascination with her work has been accompanied by an uncommon interest in her self.
		Many readers who had known Arbus deplored the book, yet for most others, it was the only way to learn much about her, beyond what the introduction to diane arbus offered, which is exquisite but obscure, and exasperatingly brief.

	Diane Arbus (豆瓣)
		When Diane Arbus died in 1971 at the age of forty-eight, she was already a significant influence-- even something of a legend-- among photographers, although only a relatively small number of her most important pictures were widely known at that time.
		The publication of Diane Arbus: An Aperture Monograph in 1972-- along with the posthumous retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art-- offered the general public its first encounter with the breadth and power of her achievements.
		Universally acknowledged a classic, Diane Arbus: An Aperture Monograph is a timeless masterpiece with editions in five languages and remains the foundation of her international reputation.

	COSMIC BASEBALL ASSOCIATION-Diane Arbus Plate
		By the time Diane Arbus took her own life in July 1971, by ingesting a large quantity of barbiturates and then cutting open her wrists, she was already a legendary and respected figure in the world of photography.
		Diane Arbus' development as an artist is also the story of a middle-class rebellion caused by the failure of love to reconcile the isolation modern culture has created in its mindless focus on image instead of substance.
		We are proud to honor Diane Arbus with this Honored Cosmic Player Plate for her contributions to cosmic baseball and to humanity as a woman with a dark but important vision.

		Diane didn't have a stash of war bonds in her name at the end of World War II; she didn't have a trust fund; she didn't get monthly dividends from stocks her parents had purchased in her name.
		By 1967, Arbus had been awarded a second Guggenheim Fellowship and was one of four photographers featured in the New Documents show at the Museum of Modern Art - surely a triumph for a woman who had slogged away at a job she hated for eleven years.
		Arbus' magazine work, created from 1960 to 1970, is the subject of the second monograph devoted to her.

		The viewer's curiosity is made to match Diane's own, as she dares to investigate the premises; once she meets the hooded and masked occupant, he asks her to take something off -- that is, to remove some vestment of propriety.
		Given what actually happened to Diane Arbus five years later, it would have seemed incumbent on the filmmakers to have at least planted a seed to indicate the real-life downside to the subject's choice of artistic self-fulfillment.
		But since "Diane" is a largely reactive role, Downey, playing the character calling the dramatic shots, in addition to boasting a far more spectacular hairdo, is able to dominate the picture while speaking his lines with a calm, low-pitched self-confidence and with sparkling eyes that provide the focal points for a great many scenes.

		Diane Arbus: Revelations, the retrospective of her work at the San Francisco Museum of Modern art, which ends this month on the 8th February, is only the second major exhibition since the artist died.
		Norman Mailer once said “giving a camera to Diane Arbus is like giving a hand grenade to a baby.” He was one of her early sitters, as were the lovers Erik Bruhn and Rudolph Nureyev, as well as the seductress Mae West in her bedroom.
		Initially, with the wide-angled Rolleiflex Arbus tended to isolate her subject: “… this visual effect served to emphasise the psychological component of the subject …” The later 2-Mamiyaflex she favoured did not have a wide-angle lens and enabled her to frame her intensely personal square-shaped portraits with irregular fl borders.
