The Genius of Photography: In the decades following the First World War photography was the central medium of the age. Anyone who fails to understand photography said the Hungarian artist and photographer Lazlo Moholy-Nagy will be one of the illiterates of the future. Precise objective rational and apparently machine-like it was used to promote the radical utopia of the Soviet Union and to bring order and clarity to the chaos of Weimar Germany. But while some prized photography for its ability to objective documents others were using it to explore the irrational the subjective and the surreal photographys natural language. The Genius of Photography - Documents for Artists examines in detail the work of some of the greatest and most influential modern photographers: Alexander Rodchenko August Sander Man Ray Eugene Atget Walker Evans and Bill Brandt. With contributions from Martin Parr Bernd and Hilla Becher Joel Meyerowitz and Mark Haworth-Booth.
