Drawing from Lange’s extensive archive, Contis constructs a fragmented, unfamiliar world centred around the figure of the day sleeper – at once a symbol of respite and oblivion. The book shows us one artist through the eyes of another, with Contis responding to resonances between her and Lange’s ways of seeing. It reveals a largely unknown side of Lange, and includes previously unseen photographs of her family, portraiture from her studio, and pictures made in the streets of San Francisco and the East Bay. \u003ci\u003eDay Sleeper\u003c\/i\u003e will be featured alongside other works of Contis’ in the exhibition \u003ci\u003eDorothea Lange: Words \u0026amp; Pictures\u003c\/i\u003e at the Museum of Modern Art, February–May 2020.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOTA-bound paperback with jacket\u003cbr\u003e17 x 24 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eISBN 978-1-912339-64-8\u003cbr\u003ePublication date: February 2020\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Dorothea Lange – Sam Contis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50665725886704,"sku":"ila1793049871558","price":21.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0843\/8585\/7776\/files\/day-sleeper_1.png?v=1793049878","url":"https:\/\/officewearfit.shop\/products\/day-sleeper","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
