The Americans gave Frank a considerable reputation, but by the time the book was published, Frank had already turned away from photography to film making. Frank, who was reluctant to become famous, bought land in Mabou, Nova Scotia, in 1970 and moved out of New York. His work began to increasingly shift to personal issues at this time. While continuing to film, Frank returned to still photography in the 1970s, using it primarily as a key element in his collages. Influenced by his experience with film, he began to combine several photographs and texts in complex, multi-layered works. This is how the present portfolio Mabou was created. The present portfolio is probably the last complete of an edition of 10.
