Description: "Andy Grundberg, known internationally for his articles in the New York Times, has been one of the most respected and widely read voices in photography and the visual arts for more than twenty years. This classic volume, newly expanded in this edition to include a selection of Grundberg's writings since 1989, is the only compilation of his work available.".

"Grundberg argues that photographs, by fundamentally altering the way in which we perceive reality, have upset conventional ideas about the relationship of art and life. How photographs have redefined the mission of art, and in what sense they have replaced reality, are questions that underlie much of Grundberg's criticism."--BOOK JACKET.
