"Some artists, such as Sophie Calle and Erwin Wurm, use photography as a record of a real perfomance or everyday action, while others such as Yinka Shonibare and Gregory Crewdson stage invented scenes and narratives to tell fictional stories. Andreas Gursky, Thomas Demand and Rineke Dijkstra present a cool, seemingly objective view of the external world, while Richard Billingham, Nan Goldin and Wolfgang Tillmans offer up intimate details of their private lives. In the hands of Luc Delahaye and Allan Sekula, photography is a means of creating documentary, while for Cindy Sherman and Gillian Wearing, the photograph becomes a repository of personal, social and cultural values in an image-saturated world." "Featuring the most important artists and key works, The Photograph as Contemporary Art is an ideal introduction to the twenty-first century's dominant art form."--BOOK JACKET.
