精彩摘录
- "...how central photography has become within contemporary art practice, and how far removed it is from traditional notions of the way a photographer creates his or her work. ...directing an event specially for the camera...."
- "Tableau/Tableau-vivant"
- "cool, detached and keenly sharp.... ...photography as a way of seeing beyong the limitation of individual perspective, a way of mapping the extent of the forces, invisible from a single human standpoint, that govern the man-made and natural world."
- "...fosters our visual curiosity by subtly and imaginatively encouraging us to contemplate the stuff of the world around us in our daily lives in new ways."
- "...borrows and redirects the language of domestic phtography and family snaps for public display."

很实用的书。但由于作者对几乎每一个人的作品都因为篇幅限制而潦草的下了结论，留下很少让人思考的空间，所以只能当做摄影师概览来读。个人反感“他拍了这个，表现出XX，代表了OO，于是产生了XX的影响，同时OO这个approach非常interesting/remarkable/special/intriguing”类似的盖棺定论。每一章节的引述比介绍摄影师的部分精彩。
Deadpan, something and nothing, intimate life, moments in history, revived and remade, physical and material。这几个部分的介绍还算蛮有趣的，比较简洁的概括了现在的一些主要分类，要是写的更学术点就好了。
...中间的性学阐释有点意思

挺有趣的入门书。对于传统摄影直接绕道而行，单刀直入地介绍一些现当代摄影师的颠覆作品。
常读常新
看完之后觉得当代摄影挺没意思的，摄影在当代大多时候只是工具，并非艺术。ps 书写的语句倒是对我最近写论文有帮助jaja
