Presence is a thrilling immersion into the personal collection of photographer and humanitarian Judy Glickman Lauder.
Nearly 160 images by some eighty photographers, selected from Judy Glickman Lauder's collection of over 650 prints, explore the idea of "presence" of the human spirit. This stunningly designed album showcases the imagery of beloved and influential photographers of the twentieth century, such as Berenice Abbott, Richard Avedon, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Imogen Cunningham, Nan Goldin, Susan Meiselas, Gordon Parks, Sebastiao Salgado, Weegee, and James Van Der Zee. Spanning Pictorialism, portraiture, and fashion, to documentary and photojournalism, and featuring iconic figures from the fields of art, politics, entertainment, and social justice, Presence: The Photography Collection of Judy Glickman Lauder celebrates photography's ability to capture the human experience. Essays by Anjuli Lebowitz and Adam D. Weinberg provide historical and artistic context, while an autobiographical essay by Glickman Lauder tells the story of her collection. This book accompanies an exhibition drawn from the Judy Glickman Lauder Collection at the Portland Museum of Art, to which the Collection has been gifted.

Rezensionen / Stimmen
"Going through the pages of this book and seeing how Judy collects only deepens my love for the photographic medium. As a photography collector myself, I can relate to Judy's directive that the image must speak to the viewer in an emotional way-and every image within this book does just that!" -Elton John
