25 And Under: Photographers

Rating:
Summary: All art directors/designers should have a copy of this book!
Review: Anyone but everyone who is in advertising, design, editorial should have a copy of this book on their desk. Take a cool look and tell me youth and imagry is dead. How often do I see the same old names used in my agency. How often do we condem youth to doing crap?

Summary: Great idea, but missing something.....
Review: Great idea for a book, however... sometimes I wonder about what photography schools are teaching people these days.... It seems like people get so caught up with the "latest trick" in photography(ie: computer manipulation...etc..) that it's hard to tell if what they are creating is from the heart. After looking through 25 and Under, I felt a lack of authentic expression. I would love to see another version of the book published with some representation of artists whom have not neccissarily attended the best photo schools in America.

Summary: Catchy title, Silly idea!
Review: I'm sure the editors and publishers of this book thought that this was such a unique idea for a photography book! Well, please let these young folks mature a bit and then see what kind of work they can be produced. What will they be doing at age 30? I'll bet most won't be photographers. For the most part there are few pleasant surprises and alot of perdictability. The sad truth is that there are many worthy photographers, with mature work, original ideas and a singular voice who will never have a book published. Why not "25 and Up"!
