The prestigious new volume by Skira devoted to international
contemporary photography is focused on some of the greatest
American masters of the twentieth-century. This will be the first
of two books (with the second coming in 2014) that seek to
illustrate the outstanding quality and variety of the works which
have marked American photography from the mid-twentieth-century to
the present day. This first volume presents a detailed and
annotated selection of works executed between the 1940s and 1970s
by twenty photographers of undisputed importance--from Edward
Weston and Robert Adams to Minor White and Garry Winogrand, from
Lee Friedlander down to Stephen Shore--whose pursuits represent
benchmarks in the history of contemporary photography. As in the
case of other titles in the series, the reproductions of all the
works are accompanied by a critical apparatus with texts discussing
the area, artists, and research explored.
