| book description |

First published by Aperture in 1988, At Twelve: Portraits of Young Women is a contemporary classic by one of photographyâ€™s most renowned photographers. To mark the bookâ€™s thirtieth anniversary, Aperture is reoriginating it in a masterful facsimile edition that retains the purity of the original. At Twelve is Sally Mannâ€™s revealing, collective portrait of twelve-year-old girls on the verge of adulthood. To be young and female in America is a time of tremendous excitement and social possibilities; it is a trying time as well, caught between childhood and adulthood, when the difference is not entirely understood. As Ann Beattie writes in her perceptive introduction, â€œThese girls still exist in an innocent world in which a pose is only a poseâ€”what adults make of that pose may be the issue.â€ The consequences of this misunderstanding can be real: destitution, abuse, unwanted pregnancy. The young women in Mannâ€™s unflinching, large-format photographs, however, are not victims. They return the viewerâ€™s gaze with a disturbing equanimity. Poet Jonathan Williams writes, â€œSally Mannâ€™s girls are the ones who do the hard looking in At Twelveâ€”be up to it!â€ This reissue of At Twelve has been printed using new scans and separations from Mannâ€™s prints, which were taken with an 8-by-10-inch view camera, rendering them with a freshness and sumptuousness true to the original edition.
