Naomi Merritt brings a new and original contribution to the scholarship on one of the most significant figures to have shaped the course of contemporary art photography since the 1970s and shines a light on the multilayered connections between photography and art. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book will be of interest to scholars in the history of photography, art and visual culture, and contemporary art history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Naomi Merritt\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1350137863\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781350137868\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/31\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 220\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.10w x 0.70d","brand":"Naomi Merritt","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43943294107903,"sku":"9781350137868","price":180.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_4d0a6e0c-3adc-4f48-87bb-b03068ba61dd.jpg?v=1681497310","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/jeff-wall-and-the-concept-naomi-merritt-9781350137868","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
