Frank's seminal autobiographical photobook returns to print, expanding upon the original 1972 edition
After The Americans (1958), The Lines of My Hand is arguably Robert Frank's most important book, and without a doubt the publication that established his autobiographical, sometimes confessional approach to bookmaking. The book was originally published by Yugensha in Tokyo in 1972, and this reprint of the 2017 Steidl edition--made in close collaboration with Robert Frank--follows and updates the first US edition by Lustrum Press of 1972.
In its singular combination of text and image, its fearless self-reflection and its insistence on photography and film as equal yet different parts of his art, The Lines of My Hand proved an inspiration for many photographers--not least Robert Frank himself, who expanded this approach in his visual diaries of 2010-17.
