Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. 8° OBL. - 147 pp. In italian with many b/w photo-reproductions. A fine copy. Ben Shahn (September 12, 1898 March 14, 1969) was an American artist. He is best known for his works of social realism, his left-wing political views, and his series of lectures published as The Shape of Content. Born…Benjamin Shahn in what was then the Russian Empire, in 1898, he emigrated with his Jewish family to the United States in 1906 following his father's exile to Siberia for suspected revolutionary activity. Settling in Brooklyn, Shahn initially trained as a lithographer. After briefly studying biology at New York University, he turned fully to art, attending the National Academy of Design and traveling through Europe with his first wife. Though influenced by European modernists, Shahn ultimately rejected their stylistic approaches in favor of a realist mode aligned with his social concerns, a direction crystallized by his 1932 series The Passion of Sacco and Vanzetti, which responded critically to contemporary politics. During the Great Depression, Shahn's work with the Public Works of Art Project, the Resettlement Administration, and the Farm Security Administration further solidified his role as a social-documentary artist. Collaborating with figures such as Diego Rivera and Walker Evans, he produced photographic and mural work addressing labor conditions and American life under the New Deal. His murals for the Jersey Homesteads school, the Bronx Post Office, and the Social Security Administration exemplify themes such as immigrant hardship, labor struggles, and collective reform, often grounding his compositions in visual references to Jewish tradition and American political history. Later in his career, he contributed to wartime propaganda through the Office of War Information, although his anti-war stance emerged in later paintings like Death on the Beach and Liberation. He produced commercial illustrations for major magazines, created stained glass, and represented the United States at the 1954 Venice Biennale. Consistently rejecting abstraction in favor of legible, symbol-laden realism, Shahn's compositions often featured expressive distortions, asymmetry, and dynamic spatial arrangements. He received honorary doctorates from Princeton University and Harvard University, and joined Harvard as a Charles Eliot Norton professor in 1956.
