Summary: Great Book!! - Fresh Perspective on America
Comment: Constantine Manos is one of the best contemorary photographers in the world and one of the few street photographers who make color photographs. Manos has high standards. He does not pose his subjects. No make believe here. He is the observer and not the observed. The images in this book all really happened and pose interesting questions and make interesting statements about contemporary life in America. They are ordinary scenes but Manos finds something extraordinary to show about American culture. The pictures are vibrant and well composed. The book is well reproduced. These are pictures you will want to spend some time with to understand and they will enrich your perspective on great diversity of America.

Rating: 5
Summary: American Color is the Americans of the turn of the century.
Comment: Manos' photographs are reminiscent of the Robert Frank survey of Americans in the middle of the century. The difference is that American Color brings forward a surrealistic vision of color and American moments. Friends have called some of the photos devastating; Im not sure about that but I would call them insightful, introspective and magical at every turn of the page. The devastation may be that of the subject but as photographs the images are both intriguing and inspiring. Whether your interest is the powerful moments of anthropology or culture or photography, American Color is an incredible book not to be missed
