Summary:
Celebrating twenty years of collecting photographs at the Getty Museum, "Photographers of Genius at the Getty" and the exhibition it accompanies spotlight the genius of thirty-eight seminal photographers selected from the hundreds of artists represented in the collection. The innovative pioneers presented here span the early nineteenth to mid-twentieth centuries. They advanced the art of photography and in the process brought about changes in the history of art. These artists include well-known photographers such as Gustave Le Gray, Julia Margaret Cameron, Eugène Atget, Alfred Stieglitz, August Sander, André Kertész, Man Ray, Edward Weston, Brassaï, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Manuel Alvarez Bravo, Walker Evans, Dorothea Lange, Weegee, and Diane Arbus. Others will be new even to experts. For example, early innovators Girault de Prangey, Anna Atkins, Camille Silvy, Henry Bosse, and the Langenheim brothers have been rediscovered in recent years, bringing to light the importance of their particular contributions to the history of art and photography. Each artist is represented in the book by three related images and interpretive remarks by Naef. Illustrations include selections from Atget's signature views of Paris, Stieglitz's portrait of Georgia O'Keeffe, Weston's distinctive nudes, and Arbus's images of women.

Le procédé est simple. Le succès est immédiat. Très vite le procédé va être détourné de son usage premier, et ouvrir un nouveau champ à l'improvisation, à la détente, au laisser-aller et à l'expression artistique. Séquencé en trois grands thèmes, Origines et Photographie identitaire, Arts, Détournements, ce livre dresse un inventaire du photomaton et de ses variations artistiques en y mêlant autoportraits de célébrités et d’anonymes. Le photomaton, marque commerciale devenue désignation générique au même titre que « frigidaire », a irréversiblement modifié la perception que nous avons de notre propre image, comme en témoigne l’intérêt qu’il a suscité et suscite toujours auprès de nombreux artistes mais aussi du grand public !
