25 and Under (Paperback, 1st ed)

Culled from an extensive, yearlong, nationwide search, this book of photographs from people twenty-five years of age and younger provides a unique and revealing look at how a new generation is seeing and interpreting the world.

25 and Under is an illuminating look at the art and sensibility of young American photographers who have documented worlds they know and imagine with surprising diversity and sophistication. The images range from photojournalist essays to computer-manipulated images, from carefully constructed art pieces to snapshots of daily life. The photographers address world issues and personal concerns, serious matters and trivial ones, and do so with humor and wit as well as anguish and anger.

This extraordinary collection of 150 duotones and color photographs allows us to look through the eyes of young people as we enter the twenty-first century, to see their hopes, fears, confusion, and ambitions through the startling and inspiring images they create.
