"Physician Michael Schupmann has been putting together an exquisite collection of photos since the 1980s. [Volume includes] works by many important German photographers and all noteworthy artistic movements in black and white photography in West Germany after 1945 (and essentially until 2000) are represented : starting with the members of the group "fotoform" who, after the Second World War, through unfamiliar perspectives and darkroom experiments attracted attention, from documentary photography by Barbara Klemm or Will McBride to the sober documentary photography by Bernd and Hilla Becher [and] conceptual approaches by Floris M. Neusüss and Andreas Müller-Pohle or Thomas Kellner"--English translation of publisher's description

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.

The modern civil rights movement rapidly came to prominence after World War II, coalescing around the demand to repeal Jim Crow laws and promote a vision of a just, multiracial society. The vast majority of civil rights organizations practiced assertive nonviolence to meet these goals. Nevertheless, opponents often met their activism with violence and intimidation. Like those who marched, protested, and organized for civil rights and social justice, photojournalists put themselves in great danger. The Briscoe Center for American History's exhibit, Struggle for Justice: Four Decades of Civil Rights Photography, which was displayed on the University of Texas at Austin campus, celebrated the legacy of those photographers. The material walked visitors through much of the civil rights era and provided a lesson both inspiring and challenging: that social progress is possible when one values it above personal comfort and safety. Now in book form, Struggle for Justice honors the photographers who were willing to put their privilege on the line to document the discrimination of others and by doing so, help to galvanize public support for the civil rights movement.

In this book Sam Contis presents a new window onto the work of the iconic American photographer Dorothea Lange. Drawing from Lange's extensive archive, Contis constructs a fragmented, unfamiliar world centred around the figure of the day sleeper at once a symbol of respite and oblivion. The book shows us one artist through the eyes of another, with Contis responding to resonances between her and Lange's ways of seeing. It reveals a largely unknown side of Lange, and includes previously unseen photographs of her family, portraiture from her studio, and pictures made in the streets of San Francisco and the East Bay.

In the early 1970s, Lew Thomas set out to disrupt photography in San Francisco. Tired of the mystical thinking and emotionalism that had underscored Bay Area photography since the 1940s, Thomas pursued a photographic practice grounded in ideas gleaned from conceptual art and Structuralist philosophy. A cohort of other photographers, including Donna-Lee Phillips and Hal Fischer, embraced Thomas' mission, joining him in what became known as the ?Photography and Language? movement, named after a book and group exhibition of the same title produced by Thomas in 1976.0Thomas, Phillips and Fischer were all extremely active in the mid to late 1970s. In addition to making their own artwork, they published essays, reviewed shows and organized exhibitions. Under the name NFS Press, Thomas published a number of books designed by Phillips, including 'Structural(ism) and Photography' (1978), which featured Thomas? work; 'Eros and Photography' (1977), which was edited by Phillips, and two books of Fischer?s work: 'Gay Semiotics' (1978) and '18th Near Castro Street x 24' (1979).0Published in conjunction with an exhibition featuring photographs by these three artists that will be on view at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art January 4 ? August 9, 2020, this volume assesses their work, their relationship to one another and their place in the history of photography in the 1970s.00Exhibition: SFMoMA, San Francisco, USA (04.01.-09.08.2020).
