Leaving Home, Coming Home: A Portrait of Robert Frank

Get to know legendary photographer Robert Frank in this previously unreleased portrait of one of the 20th century’s most significant image-makers. Celebrated for his then-controversial but now-classic 1958 book, The Americans, and his ties to Beat poets Jack Kerouac and Allen Ginsberg, the typically unforthcoming Swiss-born artist opens up on his life and visual practice, as well as the profound themes of loneliness and loss that have underpinned his work. Told from the perspectives of New York and Frank’s home in coastal Nova Scotia alongside his wife, June Leaf, Leaving Home, Coming Home is an invaluable foray inside the personal and creative worlds of a reluctant icon who finally puts himself in the frame.
