An epic visual history of the places, people, mythologies and
realities of America across eight decades from the renowned
photography collective, Magnum Photos. What is 'America?' What does
it look like? Where can it be found? What does 'America' mean and
for whom? This ambitious publication does not attempt to present a
comprehensive photographic history of the United States but uses
the stories and photographs in the Magnum Archive to offer
potential answers to those questions. In doing so, it presents a
compelling visual portrait of the USA, past and present, as it
stands once again at the crossroads of history.Magnum America is
arranged into decade-by-decade chapters from the 1940s to the
present day. Each chapter will include individual Moments,
capturing that decade, deeper views through Collective portfolios
where multiple Magnum photographers documented a major historic
event, and long-form, story-led individual portfolios that examine
issues, peoples and events as portrayed by individual Magnum
photographers. Commentaries and texts appear throughout,
highlighting the multiple voices and perspectives that define both
Magnum and the United States.The book looks beyond the fifty states
to invite us to consider the concept of 'America as Empire', with
military and political adventures and misadventures abroad,
including Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan, featured, as well as soft
power and ‘America’ as a cultural export. Breathtaking in scope and
abundant with the photographic riches and intelligent, insightful
authorship for which Magnum’s photographers are renowned, as well
as texts by Professor Laura Wexler alongside other contributing
writers, Magnum America is a vital contribution to the
documentation of contemporary American history, and a future
classic.
