"Following on from the successes of Vitamin P and Vitamin D, Vitamin Ph provides a third dose of visual stimulation and vital information for the contemporary art world. This up-to-date survey focuses on global developments in art photography and the use of the medium by contemporary artists. A panel of distinguished nominators have identified living artists who have made a fresh and innovative contribution to recent international photography." "Extending beyond the parameters of straight photography to encompass sculptural, painterly and filmic elements, the work presented in Vitamin Ph uses photography as a primary medium, whether it then develops into or merges with other media. The artists represented have emerged, or re-emerged, in the last five years to create a distinctive body of new work. Vitamin Ph aims to contribute to international debates on contemporary photography while providing an accessible overview and concise A-Z reference book."--BOOK JACKET.
