With examples from Africa, the Americas, Europe and eastern Asia, and with image types ranging from portraiture to photojournalism to conceptual to vernacular and archival photography, it presents a thorough, global dialogue on the diverse paths of development in historical and contemporary image productions. The overarching theme uniting all of these selected examples is the body: the social, cultural and political constructions that shape not only our self-representation but also our identity and experience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eArtists include: \u003c\/b\u003e Ai Weiwei, Richard Avedon, Bernd and Hilla Becher, Karl Blossfeldt, Mitch Epstein, Rotimi Fani-Kayode, Seydou Ke?ta, Mike Mandel, Santu Mofokeng, Zanele Muholi, Eadweard Muybridge, Jo Ractliffe, August Sander, Malick Sidib?, Yang Fudong, Xu Yong. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis book was published in conjunction with The Walther Collection, Neu-Ulm and New York\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Artur Walther\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3969994292\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783969994290\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Steidl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/26\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 480\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Artur Walther","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46685856366847,"sku":"9783969994290","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_67797461-6205-4394-9679-3ce432adf418.jpg?v=1741726978","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/retrace-artur-walther-9783969994290","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
