- Summary
- "reGeneration2, the second book in this esteemed series, tums the spotlight on the next generation of potential star photographers. Following the 2005 publication of reGeneration, several of the selected photographers went on to develop international careers, including Christoph Bangert (Germany), Pieter Hugo (South Africa), Idris Khan (United Kingdom) and Angela Strassheim (United States). Who will be next as we enter a new decade?" "What are young photographers up to in the twenty-first century? How do they see the world? How much do they respect, build on or reject tradition? Are they busy in the darkroom or the computer lab---or both? The reGeneration project---the broadest and most enterprising survey of its kind---sets out to discover answers to these intriguing questions, previewing the work of young photographers who may well emerge as some of the finest artists of their generation." "Following on from the success of reGeneration: 50 Photographers of Tomorrow 2005-2025, and its accompanying traveling exhibition (launched in 2005), this new expanded publication turns the spotlight on the next generation of potential star photographers. Curators at the world-renowned Musee de l'Elysee in Lausanne, Switzerland, selected the winning candidates from hundreds of entries submitted by some 120 of the world's top photography schools. The selection was made with one key question in mind: is the photographer likely to be known in twenty years' time?" "This remarkable book showcases the inspiring creativity and ingenuity of eighty up-and-coming photographic artists. The variety of subjects and techniques on view reflects the astonishing diversity of worldwide talent that has newly emerged. With over two hundred superb images, it proves that the art of photography is alive and well, and that practitioners of extraordinary talent are well on their way to making their mark."--BOOK JACKET.
