For over 30 years, The New York Times Magazine has been
synonymous with the myriad possibilities and applications of
photography. The New York Times Magazine: Photographs reflects upon
and interrogates the very nature of both photography and print
magazines at this pivotal moment in their history and evolution.
Edited by Kathy Ryan, longtime photo editor of the Magazine, and
with a preface by former editorial director Gerald Marzorati, this
volume presents some of the finest commissioned photographs
worldwide in four sections: reportage, portraiture, style and
conceptual photography, including photo illustration. Diverse in
content and sensibility, and consistent in virtuosity, the
photographs are accompanied by reproduced tear sheets to allow for
the examination of sequencing and the interplay between text and
image, simultaneously presenting the work while illuminating its
distillation to magazine form. This process is explored further
through texts offering behind-the-scenes perspective and anecdotes
by the many photographers, writers, editors and other collaborators
whose voices have been a part of the magazine over the years.
Issues of documentary photography are addressed in relation to more
conceptual photography; the efficacy of storytelling; and what
makes an image evidentiary, objective, subjective, truthful or a
tool for advocacy; as well as thoughts on whether these matters are
currently moot, or more critical than ever. As such, The New York
Times Magazine: Photographs serves as a springboard for a rigorous,
necessary and revitalized examination of photography as presented
within a modern journalistic context. 20111206
