Summary: "In this handsome book, leading photography curator Athol McCredie tells the story of the beginnings of contemporary photography - also known as art photography - in New Zealand. Through interviews with the photographers Gary Baigent, Richard Collins, John Daley, John Fields, Max Oettli, John B Turner, Len Wesney and Ans Westra, and accompanied by an outstanding introductory essay, McCredie shows how the break-through approach of personal documentary photography created a new field of photography in New Zealand that was not simply illustrative but rather spoke for itself and with its own language."--Provided by the publisher.
