Description :
The Photobook: A History volume II brings the most comprehensive illustrated history of the photobook fully up to date.
Featuring over 200 photobooks, this lush survey offers a fresh approach to photographic history and is a celebration of the medium's diversity. Broadly thematic in structure, each chapter features an introductory easy followed by detailed discussion of the individual photobooks alongside images of the book covers and spreads.
While the first volume stressed the subjective nature of the history of the medium and how that history was molded by the influences of curators and historians, the second volume brings a new perspective from the viewpoint of the photographer and the editor.
The Photobook: A History volume II is an indispensable resource and is translated in French as Le Livre de photographies : une histoire volume II.
