The definitive history of photography book, Seizing the Light: A
Social & Aesthetic History of Photography delivers the
fascinating story of how photography as an art form came into
being, and its continued development, maturity, and transformation.
Covering the major events, practitioners, works, and social effects
of photographic practice, Robert Hirsch provides a concise and
discerning chronological account of Western photography. This
fundamental starting place shows the diversity of makers,
inventors, issues, and applications, exploring the artistic,
critical, and social aspects of the creative process. The third
edition includes up-to-date information about contemporary
photographers like Cindy Sherman and Yang Yongliang, and
comprehensive coverage of the digital revolution, including the
rise of mobile photography, the citizen as journalist, and the role
of social media. Highly illustrated with full-color images and
contributions from hundreds of artists around the world, Seizing
the Light serves as a gateway to the history of photography.
Written in an accessible style, it is perfect for students newly
engaging with the practice of photography and for experienced
photographers wanting to contextualize their own work.
