World of Art the Photograph As Contemporary Art C Cotton English is available to buy in increments of 1

In the 21st century, photography has come of age as a contemporary art form. Almost two centuries after the invention of photographic technology, the art world has fully embraced it as a legitimate medium, on a par with painting and sculpture. This book offers an introduction to the extraordinary range of contemporary art photography, from portraits of intimate life to highly staged directorial spectacles.

The wide range of photographers whose work is reproduced includes established artists such as Isa Genzken, Jeff Wall, Sophie Calle, Thomas Demand, Nan Goldin and Sherry Levine, as well as emerging talents such as Sara VanDerBeek, Rashid Johnson, Viviane Sassen and Amalia Ulman.

This new edition revitalises the previous analysis of works from the 2000s through dialogue with more recent practice. In addition to the wide selection of works presented, Cotton celebrates a new generation of artists who are making photography a culturally significant medium for our current socio-political climate.
