'While looking through his contact sheets, Harvey Benge noticed
that one of his pictures reminded him of a 'Friedlander', another
someone else. All photographers do this, and if the photograph in
question apes another photographer too closely, it's usually a
cause for rejection. But Benge did the opposite. Picking out his
'Friedlander' and his 'Parr' and his 'Baltz' he decided to make an
'anthology' of contemporary photography featuring some of its
biggest names. Yet they are all genuine, original Benges. They are
also all good pictures, not mere pastiches of the 'originals' of
which they gently but insistently remind one. This may be a game,
but games can be very serious, and this fascinating book is both a
serious and light-hearted exploration of photographic style.' -
