{"product_id":"9781934435458","title":"The Sam Abell Library: Life and Still Life","description":"\u003cp\u003eSam Abell (born 1945) is one of America’s most influential documentary photographers, celebrated in particular for his in-depth color photo-essays for \u003ci\u003eNational Geographic\u003c\/i\u003e magazine. He has also made a considerable impact as a teacher and author. Abell’s career is now the subject of \u003ci\u003eThe Sam Abell Library\u003c\/i\u003e, a new publication project from Radius inaugurated with this volume—the first in a series of four multi-volume sets. Each of these sets is themed around a particular genre: the photography of places; the photography of nature; the photography of the past; and the photography of ideas. Essays by Abell appear in all of the books. In \u003ci\u003eLife and Still Life\u003c\/i\u003e, Abell explores three different cultures: Newfoundland; Hagi, Japan; and Northern Australia. This first boxed set also includes a fourth book with an illustrated essay by writer and curator Leah Bendavid-Val examining Abell’s evolution as an artist.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Radius Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47047769391344,"sku":"9781934435458","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781934435458_p0.jpg?v=1763782797","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781934435458","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
