520 1 _a"This survey presents the work of eighty of the most important and best-loved artist-photographers in the world today. Artists such as Andreas Gursky, Thomas Struth, Cindy Sherman, Jeff Wall, Sophie Calle, Wolfgang Tillmans, Nan Goldin, Martin Parr, Allan Sekula, Boris Mikhailov, Inez Van Lamsweerde, Philip-Lorca Dicorcia, Sam Taylor-Wood and many more are featured. Susan Bright has organized the book into seven sections - portrait, landscape, narrative, object, fashion, document and city - each of which explores the diverse subjects, styles and methods adopted by artists. Introductions to each section outline the genres and consider why photographers are attracted to certain themes, and how issues like memory, time, objectivity, politics, identity and the everyday are tied to certain approaches. Each photographer's work is then presented in sequence, with commentaries by the author highlighting the art's most important aspects. Quotations from the artists appear alongside to offer valuable insights into their motivations, inspirations and intentions. With an introduction that sets out the historical relationship between art and photography from the early nineteenth century and that discusses the art world's embrace of the medium in recent decades, Art Photography Now is a truly comprehensive guide to the essential aspects of contemporary photography."--BOOK JACKET.
