Camera work : the complete photographs 1903-1917 / Alfred Stieglitz - Köln : Taschen , 1997 - 552 p. : illus ; 21 cm

This title includes highlights from the legendary photo journal. Photographer, writer, publisher, and curator Alfred Stieglitz (1864-1946) was a visionary, far ahead of his time. Around the turn of the 20th century he founded the Photo-Secession, a progressive movement concerned with advancing the creative possibilities of photography, and by 1903 began publishing "Camera work", an avant-garde magazine devoted to voicing the ideas, both in images and words, of the Photo-Secession. "Camera work" was the first photo journal whose focus was visual, rather than technical, and its illustrations were of the highest quality hand-pulled photogravure printed on Japanese tissue. This book brings together a broad selection from the journal's 50 issues.
