CIVILIZATION
EWING, WILLIAM A. / ROUSSELL, HOLLY
A planetary civilization is slowly and unevenly taking shape, and photographers of the 21st century are at work everywhere, photographing almost everything our eyes documenting, recording and interpreting the world in which we live, and sometimes even imagining fictional scenarios. Politics, economics, technology, nature, the human body, society, war at this very moment photographers around the globe have their cameras focused sharply on one or another of these subjects, giving visible form to the intricate workings of modern civilization. Published to accompany the exhibition Civilization: The Way We Live Now, co-produced by FEP and the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Seoul, South Korea, this book offers a sweeping overview of the work of more than 140 men and women, ranging from art and science photographers to photojournalists, some recognized masters,others mid-career, and still others emerging as serious artists. It provides a dazzling commentary on the shared human experience the world over in the early 21st century.
