"Frederick Sommer first became renowned for his austere desert landscapes and portraits--a flattened jackrabbit from 1939, a portrait of Max Ernst merged with the side of a weathered building. He later turned his fascination with what he termed 'elegance of form' in surprising directions: a series of dramatically lit paper cutouts from the 1970s, and his photo-collages from the 1990s, meticulous works incorporating anatomical drawings. 'The Box' is a randomly-ordered series of 64 cards which readers can re-compose into a unique sequence/book of their own"--Publisher's description.

"Frederick Sommer selected the works represented in 'Son of The Box' from his own archives. The resulting collection spans thirty years of creative output, and includes images and texts published here for the first time. Until the time of his death, Frederick Sommer continued to work in a variety of media; his active collaboration was essential in the editing and design process of this important artist's book"--Publisher's description.
