| PHOTO JOURNALISM 2006 |
From the heavy plate camera images of long ago to those snatched by the digital lightweights of today, Photo Journalism reveals the world that our ancestors pioneered, and that our grandparents and parents have handed down to us. Here are the heroes, rogues, explorers and entrepreneurs that have shaped, exploited, and challenged this world - from the Crimean War to 9/11, from horse-drawn buses to the Space Shuttle, from the crinoline to the mini-skirt and beyond. Here, too, is a worldwide panorama of cultures that have survived, struggled, thrived, and in some cases vanishеd in the great cloud of dust raised by the march of history. This is the camera's greatest legacy. In over a thousand pictures, here is the story of the last 175 years, of the age that has shaped the world in which we live. Here are breath-taking images from battlefields, workshops, palaces, concert halls, streets, forests, and every tiny corner penetrated by the prying and revealing eye of the camera. |
