Arbus, Diane
(redirected from Diane Arbus)

    Also found in: Encyclopedia, Wikipedia 0.01 sec.

Arbus, Diane (1923–1971)

US photographer. Although she practised as a fashion photographer for 20 years, Arbus is best known for her later work which examined the fringes of American society: the misfits, the eccentrics, and the bizarre. Her work has been attacked as cruel and voyeuristic, but it is essentially sympathetic in its unflinching curiosity. A Box of Ten Photographs, a limited edition of her work, was published in 1970.
