Photojournalism: 150 Years of Outstanding Press… di Reuel Golden
This is an excellent overview of the history of photojournalism and classic examples from many of the greats in the field - some well known, some less so. It will be one I'll revisit often.
Spectacular edition, another excellent work from Taschen. This edition is made of a reproduction of 7 little books by the great artist Andy Warhol, embedded into a large, tea-table display publication. A must have for an arts lover!
The book presents 55 photographers of the 20th century in alphabetical order. There is a short introduction of each photographer, and a couple of their photos.
Because the introductions are so short, and there are at most 5 photos per person, the book seems to be very shallow. It is nowhere near "a complete guide to the greatest artists of the photographic age", as the cover promises. Even though the artists each get only a short amount of pages, it seems that the editor wanted to include more. This comes out in an odd way, since the editor laments the omission of some photographers in his introduction.
But, even with its shortcomings, this is a good book to the uninitiated like myself. It shows some some great photos (even though they are rather small in size), and spurs interest in some of the greats of the art form.… (altro)
