More about the book
Acknowledging that photography is impossible to define, this intriguing reference strives to distil the meaning of photography in order to obtain the very essence of the medium without diminishing its importance as an art form. 50 iconic images by some of the world’s greatest photographers are paired with excerpts from interviews that explain each artist’s unique philosophy and detail their creative approach in relation to the photograph. Together they provide insights on function, perspective, and meaning. Thought-provoking, insightful, and ultimately inspirational, this engaging resource will appeal to all artists and photographers, and anyone who seeks a better understanding of the medium.
