Présentation de l'éditeur
Contemporary photography - which originally
emerged from performance art - has developed
over the last fifty years into one of the
most intriguing phenomena in today's artistic
landscape. Demonstrating the unabated
power of art to regenerate itself, this relatively
recent art form has been reenergized
by talented visual artists, many of whom
reference back to the history of traditional
photography. Photography infuses every
aspect of contemporary life ; its experimental,
dissident, and modern "spirit" now feeds
into photojournalism, fashion photography,
and advertising alike.This engaging and instructive book, richly
illustrated throughout, offers fascinating
insight into the evolution of photography
since the 1960s, examining a vast range of
genres, techniques, and practices, and providing
the basis for a deeper understanding of
contemporary photography's role in society.
