A startling and original look at what it means to be human in a
rapidly changing world, from bestselling author and art writer
Henry Carroll, with images by a diverse and innovative group of
contemporary photographers See through the eyes of a new generation
of photographers responding to the rapidly unfolding issues shaping
our lives. In this series of small, insightful, and beautifully
presented books, Henry Carroll, the bestselling photography writer
of the last decade, considers the ideas behind images to present
personal perspectives on climate change, race, sexuality, gender,
faith, inequality, beauty, power, and our contradictory
relationship to animals and the natural world. The first book in
the series, HUMANS, reveals how contemporary photographers use
visual language to pose honest and confronting questions about our
bodies, the purpose of faith in a fact-based world, systemic social
structures that limit and allow freedom, and the opposing forces of
unconditional love and abject cruelty. In this diverse collection
of arresting images and insightful text, Carroll regards the
photographers as modern-day philosophers, original thinkers who
fuse technique, concept, and imagination in order to provoke
meaningful visual reflections on what matters most. For both
creators and consumers of images, HUMANS is an immersive and
supremely relevant book offering a treasure trove of ideas and
visual inspiration designed to cultivate a deeper, more personal
understanding of who we are, why we are, and what we think.
