Why Photography Matters...?

Why Photography Matters As Art As Never Before, although the title of this book seems rather redundant to photographers Michael Fried explores photography and photographers in the contemporary art world.

Fried looks at photographers like Jeff Wall, Cindy Sherman, Thomas Ruff, Andreas Gursky, Philip-Lorca diCorcia and Bernd and Hilla Becher and makes an argument that photography is now at the cutting edge of the art world.
