This volume provides an authoritative overview of photography's place in recent art history, contextualised by artists' statements and interviews, and texts by leading critics, writers and theorists of the late 20th century. 250 photos. 304 pp.

This survey of recent work by British artist John Hilliard (born 1945) examines his conceptual approach to photography. Hilliard utilizes every means--double exposure, multiple perspectives, blow-ups, cutouts and superimpositions--to explore what an image can tell us about the world and where the medium determines the meaning.
