A SHORT HISTORY OF PHOTOGRAPHY BY HARVEY BENGE WITH ESSAY BY GERRY BADGER, PUBLISHED BY DEWI LEWIS 2007

Vapour Momenta Books

Launched in London at The Photographers’ Gallery in November, Harvey Benges work here is a meditation on photographic style. While looking through his contact sheets, he noticed that one of his pictures reminded him of a “Friedlander”, while another reminded him of someone else. All photographers do this, and if the photograph in question apes the another photographer too closely, it’s usually a cause for rejection.” – Badger
A commentary on Adams, Baltz, Baldessari, Barney, etc. etc.
