| Things
as They Are tells
the story of modern photojournalism, from The Family
of Man and the heyday of Life magazine in
1955 to the era of the camera-phone in the present day.
With 120 picture essays shown as they were first seen on
the pages of newspapers and magazines, Things as They
Are reveals how the events of the world, the art of
photographers, and the interests of the press have
converged on the printed page. It traces how
photojournalism has developed over time alongside
changing technology, media, fashions in photography -
and a changing world.
Including landmark photo essays by photographers such
as Henri Cartier-Bresson, Walker Evans, Nan Goldin, Mary
Ellen Mark, James Nachtwey, Sebastiã
o Salgado and W Eugene Smith, as shown on the pages of
publications including Life, National Geographic,
Paris Match, Stern and the Sunday Times, each
is accompanied by an expert commentary. The book
includes a timeline of the last 50 years illustrated by
the iconic winners of the annual World Press Photo
awards. |
