"Contemporaries presents outstanding contemporary photography in a lively series of beautifully printed books. Each volume is devoted to the work of a single artist and surveys a decade or more of exceptional achieve. ment in some fifty carefully selected plates. An interpretive essay introduces the plates, and a chronology and bibliography complete each book. For more than half a century The Museum of Modern Art has been recognized for its commitment to the best in contemporary photography from around the world. The Museum was the first to exhibit and publish the work of many artists who are now regarded as masters of twentieth-century photography. Looking toward the neentury, the Contemporaries series extends that tradition by makin tinguished contemporary photography widely available in books of superior quality. Philip-Lorca diCorcia was born in 1953 and lives in New York. His inventively staged and exquisitely crafted color photographs occupy a special place in contemporary art. Operating in the gap between postmodern fiction and documentary fact, between slick convention and fresh percep-tion, they deliver a powerful emotional charge. - Peter Galassi is Chief Curator, Department of Photography, The Museum of Modern Art."
