"Now in his 89th year, American photographer Marvin E. Newman is receiving his due as one of the finest street photographers of the twentieth century. His self-titled monograph, just released as a XXL Collector’s Edition from Taschen showcases his vibrant collection of cityscapes made in New York, Chicago, Las Vegas, and Los Angeles—as well as in the Heartland of the nation and the outskirts of Alaska between the years 1950 and 1983." #Archive #History #Photography #Storytelling

"American photographer Donna Ferrato is possessed with a candor you rarely find, a willingness to traverse the most delicate, vulnerable parts of life and do so with extraordinary courage and sensitivity. Long before the mainstream media was paying attention to the issues facing women’s lives, Ferrato was fully attuned to the extraordinary importance of bearing witness.![]()
![]()
In her new book Holy (powerHouse Books), Ferrato traverses a lifetime behind the lens documenting the lives of women from all walks of life. Fearlessly confronting once taboo issues like sexual assault, domestic violence, and sex work, Ferrato recognizes photography as a tool to speak truth to power and testify to not only the tragedies and traumas befalling women but the victories that achieve against the odds." #VisualLiteracy #CriticalThinking #Photography #Storytelling

"As I look through the pages of photographer Jerome Sessini’s new book “Inner Disorder” (Editorial RM, 2021) chronicling the devastation and misery of war in Ukraine, I’m left with a feeling of hopelessness and utter inadequacy.![]()

Page after page, Sessini confronts us with what is sadly too familiar. Broken buildings and broken people, trapped in the middle of unceasing punishment.![]()
![]()
Yet Sessini is able to find such beauty in all of it. They are melancholy scenes, for certain, but there still is a vast amount of beauty in his photos. They remind me a little bit of taking in the slow burn of a Tarkovsky film." #VisualLiteracy #CriticalThinking #Photography #Storytelling
