Description
This book features the artists: Shelby Lee Adams, Adam Broomberg and Oliver Chanarin, Chien-Chi Chang, Julio Grinblatt, An-My Le, Susan Meiselas, Boris Mikhailov, Simon Norfolk, Trent Parke, Weng Peijun, Paul Shambroom, Massimo Vitali, and, Michael Wesely. It also contains essays by David Campany, Martha Langford, and, Jan-Erik Lundstrom. “So Now Then” is very much about the here and now. With the subject of documentary currently at the forefront of contemporary visual art and photography looming large as the medium of choice for practitioners, it seems an appropriate time to take stock of some of the most apposite work energizing and redefining the documentary mode. The fourteen artists – chosen from a shortlist nominated by over sixty of the world’s leading authorities on contemporary photography – represent a broad spectrum of pictorial, aesthetic and conceptual interests.
