| Summary: | Looks at the physical, depletive, and mental impressions made by photographs. "In this book, Stephen Shore explores ways of understanding and looking at all types of photographs - from iconic images to found pictures, negatives to digital files. Based on Shore's many years of teaching photography at Bard College, New York State, this book serves as an indispensable tool for students, teachers and everyone who wants to take better pictures or learn to look at them in a more informed way. As well as a selection of Shore's own work, the book contains images from throughout the history of photography, from works by the fathers of photography to that of artists working with the medium today. It covers a range of genres, as well as images by unknown photographers."--BOOK JACKET. |
