Her early portraits of Indigenous people in Arizona and New Mexico from the 1920s and 1930s, as well as her representations of striking workers, migrant farmers, rural African Americans, Japanese Americans in internment camps, and the people she encountered during her travels in Europe, Asia, and Latin America, were guided by compassion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this book, the authors examine Lange's roots in studio portraiture and explore how her influential and widely seen photographs addressed issues of identity as well as social, economic, and racial inequalities. These topics remain as relevant for our times as they were for hers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePublished in association with the National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC, the exhibition schedule for this book is as follows:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNational Gallery of Art, Washington, DC (November 5, 2023–March 31, 2024)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 267 x 235 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780300272000\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Philip Brookman,Sarah Greenough,Andrea Nelson,Laura Wexler","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44636279243002,"sku":"9780300272000","price":38.08,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1697191780212_book.jpg?v=1697287523","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/dorothea-lange-seeing-people-9780300272000","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
