What has permanently displaced photojournalism, previously the dominant photographic genre, as the second most influential photographic genre of our time (second only to street photography, the "fantasy" to the street's "reality"). This brilliant book shows that the world's greatest photographers (among the pioneers being Andre Kertesz, Edward Steichen, Man Ray, George Platt Lynes, and Diane Arbus) worked in fashion, among other fashion-photography milestones: The first fashion photographer was Baron Adolph de Meyer, an amateur who popularized the style known as Pictorialism. Edward Steichen's proto-Minimalism helped break photography's dependence on painting and find its own voice. Martin Munkacsi and Alexey Brodovitch ("Ballet") mastered the depiction of movement and motion in a still medium. Then you have: Cecil Beaton, Richard Avedon, Irving Penn, David Bailey, Guy Bourdin, Helmut Newton, Saul Leiter (recently re-discovered), Bob Richardson, and Bruce Weber, among innumerable others, whose evocative, innovative, and sensual photographs reflect - and often surpass - the great Modernist themes of film and literature. An absolute "must-have" title for photography collectors. This title is a great photography book.
