The Car and the Camera: The Detroit School of Automotive Photography

Editorial Reviews Midwest Book Review The Car And The Camera is a tour-de-force celebration of Detroit car photographers of "shooters" who created new ways of photographing (and seeing) automobiles from the 1950s through the 1990s. The Car And The Camera takes readers on a revealing visual journey as this splendidly illustrated catalog of images examines the technological advances in photography that have affected automotive advertisements and traces the fascinating development of the Detroit school of automotive photography, highlighting major photographers such as Walter Farynk, Dennis Gripentrog, Vern Hammarlund, Mickey McGuire, Guy Morrison, Jim Northmore, and Warren O. Winstanley, and their memorable work. The Car And The Camera also explores the ways in which the automotive industry and auto advertisements act as barometers of American culture, both mirroring and helping to shape the American spirit of the time. The great photographs showcased in The Car And The Camera are especially worth studying now, as electronic imaging seems destiny to replace many of the rich traditions of automotive photography. The Car And The Camera is a perfect addition to any automotive history or photography collection. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
