		Though attuned to pure nature for most of her career, Cunningham was also a "sophisticated aesthete" who "often delighted in upsetting common values"--a startling example being her double-image portrait of the artist Morris Graves, who is "psychically incorporated" into a forested landscape.
		Influenced by the stark lines and objectivity of the German modernists, her close-up, sensual photographs of tree trunks and branches, house plants, flowers, seaweed, leaves, pods, and driftwood often resemble animals, birds, fish, and human forms.
		Imogen Cunningham has done it again with another magnificent collection of her images of life.
