Description 320 pages : illustrations (some color) ; 26 cm Summary "Finally available as a single revised and expanded volume, Photography Speak I and II have long been invaluable reference sources for artists and enthusiasts alike. Featuring images drawn from the Chrysler Museum's expansive and renowned collection, this combined edition spans the history of the medium - from William Henry Fox Talbot to Cindy Sherman - including original texts and images from 150 of photography's most vital practitioners." "An example of each photographer's work is accompanied by a biographical introductory text and an original statement culled from conversations with, or writings by the artist - often written by the artist expressly to be included here. Photography Speaks provides a personalized history of photography through musings, anecdotes, conversations, war stories, and even verse, providing readers with vital insights on the medium from the very individuals who have shaped it." "The roster of photographers included has been further expanded to broaden the wide historical reach of the book, and to include those who have only recently entered the canon, with sixteen new selections from such artists as Southworth and Hawes, Nadar, Roman Vishniac, Gordon Parks, Eikoh Hosoe, William Eggleston, Christian Boltanski, Rineke Dijkstra, Luc Delahaye, Thomas Struth, and Gabriel Orozco."--BOOK JACKET Notes "This book includes the full contents, revised and updated, of the first two volumes [of Photography speaks] plus sixteen new entries on recent additions to the Chrysler Museum's collection"--Foreword Bibliography Includes bibliographical references (pages 315-318) Subject Chrysler Museum -- Catalogs.
