Significant and iconic photographs created over the last 100 years
provide an essential history and new interpretation of the medium
Beginning with Paul Strand's landmark From the Viaduct in 1916 and
continuing through the present day, Photography's Last Century
examines defining moments in the history of the medium. Featuring
nearly 100 masterworks, it includes both rare and iconic examples
of works by photography's most renowned and influential artists,
including Diane Arbus, Richard Avedon, Walker Evans, Laszlo
Moholy-Nagy, Man Ray, and Cindy Sherman, as well as a diverse group
of lesser-known practitioners who helped define photography in the
20th and early 21st centuries. Jeff Rosenheim's detailed and
perceptive text addresses the avant-garde artists of the early
decades of the 20th century, the changing role of the camera after
the Second World War, the rise of the international market for fine
photographic prints in the 1960s, the photography boom in the late
1970s, and the implications of calling this period the "last"
century of photography. Exquisitely designed and produced, this
book offers new insight on the development and significance of
photography as an art form over the course of the past 100 years.
