This exhibition catalogue provides new insights into the interdisciplinary and lesserknown aspects of photographer and filmmaker Robert Frank's expansive career by delving into the extraordinarily multifaceted six decades that followed Frank's landmark photobook The Americans (1958) until his death in 2019. In the six decades that followed the landmark photobook The Americans (1958) until his death in 2019, the photographer and filmmaker Robert Frank maintained an extraordinarily multifaceted practice informed by perpetual experimentation and collaborations across various mediums. Frank is often remembered as a solo photographer on a road trip, a Swiss artist making pictures of an America that he traversed as an outsider. And yet, Frank continually forged new paths in his work, often in direct artistic conversation with others, in a ceaseless creative exploration and observation of life. Coinciding with the centennial of his birth and taking its name from the artist's 1980 film, Life Dances On explores Frank's artistic and personal dialogues with other artists and with his communities. Featuring photographs, films, books, and archival materials, this richly layered publication includes excerpts from an oral history project undertaken for his centennial, and a special section devoted to his "scrapbook footage," which provides readers with previously unavailable reflections from Frank himself.

Robert Frank's Microeconomics and Behavior covers microeconomic topics while exploring the relationship between economic analysis and human behavior. Written in a way that is intellectually challenging, but also accessible and engaging to students. Earlier revisions of Microeconomics and Behavior focused on updating its examples and enriching its set of learning aids. This 2024 release marks a departure from that pattern. Although the author has long believed that the economic decisions that govern energy use have been a fruitful way to introduce basic microeconomic concepts, these received only limited attention in earlier editions. Now, with the climate crisis having become the defining issue of our era, the author has focused more intensively on how basic microeconomic concepts can help students think more clearly about, and respond more effectively to, the climate challenges we face. Core analytical tools are embedded in a diverse collection of examples and applications to illuminate the power and versatility of the economic way of thinking. Students are encouraged to become Economic Naturalists who see ordinary existence in a sharp new light.

Distinguished economist Robert Frank uses hundreds of fascinating, unexpected examples of everyday paradoxes to explain the economics of the everyday world

With a timely new foreword by Robert Frank, this groundbreaking book explores the very meaning of happiness and prosperity in America today. Although middle-income families don't earn much more than they did several decades ago, they are buying bigger cars, houses, and appliances. To pay for them, they spend more than they earn and carry record levels of debt. Robert Frank explains how increased concentrations of income and wealth at the top of the economic pyramid have set off "e;expenditure cascades"e; that raise the cost of achieving many basic goals for the middle class. Writing in lively prose for a general audience, Frank employs up-to-date economic data and examples drawn from everyday life to shed light on reigning models of consumer behavior. He also suggests reforms that could mitigate the costs of inequality. Falling Behind compels us to rethink how and why we live our economic lives the way we do.

In this, Robert Frank's newest book, he both acknowledges and moves beyond his acclaimed visual diaries (2010-17), which juxtapose iconic photos from throughout his career with the more personal pictures he makes today and suggestive, often autobiographical text fragments. In Good days quiet Frank's focus is life inside and outside his beloved weather-beaten wooden house in Mabou, where he has spent summers for decades with his wife June Leaf. Among portraits of Leaf, Allen Ginsberg and Frank's son, are images of the house's simple interior with its wood-fuelled iron stove, humble furniture and bare light bulbs, as well as views of the land and sea by the house: snow-covered, windswept, stormy or lit by the dying sun. Frank's Polaroids scanned for the book show various deliberate states of deterioration and manipulation at his hands, including texts that move from the merely descriptive ("watching the crows") to the emotive ("memories," "grey sea-old house / can you hear the music"). As always in Frank's books, his message lies primarily in the photos' lyrical sequence, an influential approach to the photobook pioneered by and today well at home in his 93-year-old hands.
