In 1962 Lyon traveled to the segregated South to photograph the civil rights movement. Subsequent projects on biker culture, the demolition and redevelopment of lower Manhattan, and the Texas prison system, and more recently on the Occupy movement and the vanishing culture in China's booming Shanxi Province, share Lyon's signature immersive approach and his commitment to social and political issues that concern those on the margins of society. Lyon's photography is paralleled by his work as a filmmaker and a writer. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eDanny Lyon: Message to the Future \u003c\/i\u003eis the first in-depth examination of this leading figure in American photography and film, and the first publication to present his influential bodies of work in all media in their full context. Lead essayists Julian Cox and Elisabeth Sussman provide an account of Lyon's five-decade career. Alexander Nemerov writes about Lyon's work in Knoxville, Tennessee; Ed Halter assesses the artist's films; Danica Willard Sachs evaluates his photomontages; and Julian Cox interviews Alan Rinzler about his role in publishing Lyon's earliest works. With extensive back matter and illustrations, this publication will be the most comprehensive account of this influential artist's work. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePublished in association with the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExhibition Schedule: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhitney Museum of American Art\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e (06\/17\/16-09\/25\/16)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ede Young, Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e (11\/05\/16-03\/12\/17)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFotomuseum Winterthur\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e (05\/20\/17-08\/27\/17)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eC\/O Berlin Foundation\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e (09\/15\/17-12\/10\/17)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Julian Cox, Elisabeth Sussman, Alexander Nemerov\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0300218834\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780300218831\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Yale University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/16\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 5.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 12.20h x 9.90w x 1.30d","brand":"Julian Cox","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44598224748799,"sku":"9780300218831","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_20fafd75-d18c-474c-ac88-01c91fe4cc09.jpg?v=1702381298","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/danny-lyon-julian-cox-9780300218831","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
