Chicago - Classic Photographs
AIA Chicago, 35 East Wacker Drive, #250
Richard Cahan, founder of CityFiles Press, will discuss the company’s latest book: Chicago – Classic Photographs.
The city has produced some of the most important photographers of our time — Harry Callahan, Aaron Siskind, Art Shay — but has never before possessed a book packed with their most timeless work. This is the finest collection of its kind — 225 stunning images by the city’s most revered photographers that show the enduring and endearing aspects of Chicago and its landscape from the Loop to the city’s vast array of neighborhoods.
Richard Cahan and Michael Williams, the foremost picture editors of the city, created this book. Here they have chosen photos going back more than a century to show a city that is both well-known and surprising. This is a book for people who love Chicago and for visitors who want something special to remember her by. It is filled with classic photographs that defy time — timeless pictures of a changing city.
Books will be available for purchasing and signing before and after the presentation. The cost of the book is $39.95.
