著名评论家对 20 世纪 70 年代和 80 年代这关键的几十年中 "摄影热潮"的精彩讲述

20 世纪 70 年代初，当安迪-格伦德伯格作为一名新锐作家来到纽约时，摄影还处于当代艺术世界的边缘。1991 年，当他离开《纽约时报》评论员的职位时，摄影已成为艺术辩论的重要中心。格伦德伯格以雄辩而权威的笔触描写了摄影的 "繁荣年代"，记录了摄影在当时重要的艺术运动（从大地艺术和观念艺术到行为艺术和录像艺术）中日益重要的作用。他还追溯了摄影在博物馆和画廊中的发展历程，以及摄影在 20 世纪 80 年代和 90 年代文化战争中的政治化进程。

格伦德伯格回顾了当时具有里程碑意义的展览，以及他与著名摄影师--其中许多人他本人都认识--包括戈登-马塔-克拉克、辛迪-舍曼和罗伯特-梅普尔索普--的邂逅。他探讨了摄影与理论、女权主义和有色人种艺术家的关系等重要主题。这本书既是回忆录，也是历史，这一时期的著名评论家最终通过摄影媒介讲述了一个关于 20 世纪 70 年代和 80 年代的大故事。

A leading critic’s acclaimed story of “the photo boom” during the crucial decades of the 1970s and ’80s

“Grundberg . . . is a vibrant, opinionated, authoritative guide to the medium’s past and present.”—Jackie Wullschläger, Financial Times

When Andy Grundberg landed in New York in the early 1970s as a budding writer, photography was at the margins of the contemporary art world. By 1991, when he left his post as critic for the New York Times, photography was at the vital center of artistic debate. Grundberg writes eloquently and authoritatively about photography’s “boom years,” chronicling the medium’s increasing role within the most important art movements of the time, from Earth Art and Conceptual Art to performance and video. He also traces photography’s embrace by museums and galleries, as well as its politicization in the culture wars of the 1980s and ’90s.

Grundberg reflects on the landmark exhibitions that defined the moment and his encounters with the work of leading photographers—many of whom he knew personally—including Gordon Matta-Clark, Cindy Sherman, and Robert Mapplethorpe. He navigates crucial themes such as photography’s relationship to theory as well as feminism and artists of color. Part memoir and part history, this perspective by one of the period’s leading critics ultimately tells a larger story about the 1970s and 1980s through the medium of photography.
