| About the Book | |
|
The Mysteries of Light is an original literary meditation on the significance and meaning of photobooks. Written by a photographer and novelist, the book brings a strong new light to the photobook phenomenon. It’s a mix of personal stories and examinations of such great artists as Robert Frank, Daido Moriyama, Saul Leiter, Alec Soth, Masahisa Fukase, and Christer Strömholm, as well as newcomers Daisuke Yokota, Laura El-Tantawy, and Jason Eskenazi. The Mysteries of Light is personal and passionate, fun, lively, informative, inspiring, and will help you understand photobooks—and get you jazzed about them—in a whole new way.
