Nan Goldin's evocative 'Diving for Pearls' is filled with pride and longing

"Missing, 1977–2014" (2015) is reproduced from Diving for Pearls, Nan Goldin's enigmatic artist's book from STEIDL. "Since David Armstrong and I were young he always referred to photography as 'diving for pearls,'" she writes. "If you took a million pictures you were lucky to come out with one or two gems… In our time photography was unpredictable and allowed for chance. The more one risked (whether physically or emotionally), the deeper one dared to go, the closer one looked, the more likely the tissue would reveal a jewel."
