The Photographic Reflex: The Lee Marks and John C. DePrez, Jr. Collection

di Benjamin Levy (Autore)

Scala Publishers Ltd, 2026

An arresting survey of photographic practice, drawn from the Eskenazi Museum of Art's extraordinary collection. Spanning from 1856 to 2017, this beautifully illustrated book includes iconic photographs by pioneers such as Alfred Stieglitz, Edward Steichen, and Henri Cartier-Bresson, alongside contemporary innovators like Edward Burtynsky and Vik Muniz. Structured around five thematic chapters—ranging from motion and time to war, the body, industry, and nature—the book offers an expansive and enticing narrative of photography’s evolution in both form and function. Drawn from the well-known and prestigious collection of Lee Marks and John C. DePrez Jr. recently donated to the Eskenazi Museum of Art, the book is designed for a broad audience, with more than 100 beautifully reproduced plates, insightful essays, and a candid interview with the collectors that reflects on how photography has changed, both as a medium and a market.
