American Photography is a yearly journal that presents some of the most arresting photography by both established and emerging artists. These images are selected by a jury of creative professionals from the pages of magazines, books, advertisements, and personal portfolios. Volume 16 features documentary photographs by Gilles Peress, James Whitlow Delano, Robert Polidori, Alexei Hay and Sebastio Salgado. Also featured are fashion, still life and celebrity photographs by such image-makers as David Lachapelle, Antonin Kratchovil, Mark Seliger, Martin Schoeller, Richard Burbidge, Annie Leibovitz, Herb Ritts and Chuck Close. The work of up-and-coming photographers is also given prominence, including exciting and innovative works by Mark Heitoff, Jason Todd, Ariko, Baldomaero Fernandez and Erin Patrice O'Brien. Impressively designed and exquisitely reproduced, American Photography is essential for anyone interested in a comprehensive look at the current state of the art of photography.
