Struss (1886-1981) was that rara avis who mastered both still photography and cinematography. Best known for his stunning camera work on F.W. Murnau"s Sunrise--for which he shared the first Academy Award for cinematography in 1927--Struss was a member of Photo-Secession, an organization co-founded by Alfred Stieglitz devoted to the promotion of photography as a fine art. While Koszarski discusses Struss" contributions to the cinema, the focus of this retrospective is the artist"s earlier New York pictorial work; the book is handsomely illustrated with black and white images from Struss" oeuvre, as well as his striking 1910-17 experiments in color.
