Prospect: Photography in Contemporary Art

This thorough anthology surveys the work of many artists from what is now being called the Post-photographic period. The numerous portfolios presented--originally shown at the Prospect 96 show in Frankfurt--cleverly explore issues of representation, identity, gender, and environment. Artists include Dieter Appelt, Nobuyoshi Araki, Lewis Baltz, Gregory Crewdson, Lynn Davis, Adam Fuss, Andreas Gursky, Yasumasa Morimura, Cindy Sherman, Thomas Struth, Hiroshi Sugimoto, and many other lesser known, but vital artists.
