Lenscratch: Contemporary Themes in Photography

This book is the first of its kind to bring together and showcase contemporary photographers' bodies of work, moving beyond the survey approach so often seen in photography today. Curated by Aline Smithson of the groundbreaking fine art photography blog Lenscratch, this book explores theme-based photo projects by profiling thirty artists working with the topics of family, domestic landscapes, self-portrait, gender and identity. Providing insight as to how the photographers created the work, Lenscratch offers a deeper understanding of each photographer's intent and vision. Perfect for fine art photography students and those photographers seeking a compelling look at voices in photography in the 21st century.
