Summary note

"In this catalogue and retrospective exhibition, organized by the Amon Carter Museum of American Art...we have a unique opportunity to explore for the first time the breadth of Bergman's long career: a chance to see his most notable works--the color portraits--in the context of his early experiments with black-and-white abstraction, his work in the popular genre of street photography, and his large-scale color abstractions." -- Preface, page 9.
