American Photography by Vicki Goldberg,Robert Silberman Pdf
This beautiful and informative photographic history includes images from 1900 to 1999. Many are often seen (bullet piercing the apple, splashing crown of milk, Sophia Loren looking askance at Jayne Mansfield's plunging decollete, and Dorothea Lange's Migrant Mother); but most are probably unknown, because the photos were selected not only for their visual and cognitive qualities but also for their importance to the history and development of photographic technique and usage. The century is divided into thirds for explanation's sake, and there is at least one photograph for every year. While this is a picture book, the accompanying text provides informative introductions to the uses and abuses of perhaps the century's most important medium. The book is companion to the PBS series.

"This comprehensive new survey places American photography in its cultural context for the first time. Prize-winning author, Miles Orvell, examines this fascinating subject through portraiture and landscape photography, family albums and memory, analyzing the particular way in which American photographers view the world around them - from Alfred Stieglitz to Walker Evans, Andy Warhol to Cindy Sherman."--Back cover.

For this deluxe boxed survey of the year's best images by the most innovative and talented photographers working today, a distinguished jury--including Kathy Ryan, Photo Editor at The New York Times Magazine, Tim Barber of Tinyvices.com, Simon Barnett, Director of Photography at Newsweek, Sarah Hasted of Hasted Hunt Gallery, Catriona Ni Aolain, Director of Photography at ESPN the Magazine, Dora Somosi, Director of Photography at GQ and Susan Zadeh, Artistic Director at EYEMAZING International Photography Magazine--selected just 347 images from over 9,000 submissions from Time, The New York Times, Vanity Fair, Entertainment Weekly and many others for this annual competition. Whatever the subject matter, from fashion and celebrity to politics or still life, these extraordinary images excel as tools of communication with artistic power and relevance. Among them are the New York magazine series for which John Baldessari, Vanessa Beecroft and Vik Muniz reinterpreted Richard Avedon's iconic photograph of Marilyn Monroe; Brent Stirton's essay for Newsweek on gorilla poaching in the Eastern Congo; Tim Hetherington's award-winning series, Battle Company, on a U.S infantry unit deployed in the Korengal Valley of Afghanistan; John Moore's series on the assassination of Benazir Bhutto and its devastating aftermath in Rawalpindi, Pakistan; and Paula Bronstein's portraits of victims of domestic violence in Pakistan.

'American Photography 18' (2002) presents the year's most powerful images by established and emerging photographers. The photographs cover a variety of global events that have ocurred over the last year.
The world is swimming in a sea of photographic images--on billboards, in magazines, glutting the Internet...American Photography has been bravely diving into that sea for the last two decades, emerging with the most innovative images of the year. This year's jury--composed of Kathy Ryan, Photo Editor of The New York Times Magazine; Stephen Frailey of the School of Visual Arts Photography Department; David Harris, Design Director of Vanity Fair; Lesley A. Martin, Executive Editor of Aperture; Stephen Mayes of Image Source and World Press Photo; and Greg Pond, Photo Editor for Fortune magazine--has found a treasure trove of images by seasoned professionals and talented emerging photographers. With the near-ubiquity of digital cameras, photographers are testing very new equipment and challenging us with results that are continually pushing this medium further than it has gone before. These photographers may be familiar to the art world, or the pages of fashion magazines, or they may be out on the front line, getting heart-stopping journalistic shots that convey the true cost of conflict. American Photography explores what it means to use photographic images to communicate--how what we are saying and how we are saying it changes by degrees year after year. Among this year's roster are Yael Ben-Zion, Paolo Pellegrin, Martin Parr, Annie Leibovitz, Brigitte Lacombe, Lauren Greenfield, Nan Goldin, Lee Friedlander, Luc Delahaye, Jean Paul Goude, Vincent Laforet, Spencer Platt, Martin Schoeller and Stephanie Sinclair.
American Photography presents the best images by established and emerging photographers selected by an outstanding jury from thousands of entries. The collection, gathered from books, magazines, promotional and personal portfolios, offers an informed view of photography today, with images that resonate through their clearly individual point of view. American Photography is a time capsule in the making.
