Deus Ex Machina (Klotz)

About this book

"Deus Ex Machina, by Ralph Gibson, is a collection of Gibson's photography, beginning with his early days as a student in 1960 and continuing through his career up to 1999. This is quite an extensive collection, covering thirty-nine years of Gibson's career and life. The collection is presented to us chronologically by year, but it is also divided by subject matter and geographical location. The photography represented in Deus Ex Machina is predominantly black and white, although there are two chapters that have some color photography." -- Excerpt from review on metapsychology website (see link). "This book is a testament, in black-and-white (and some color), to every photographer who has ever tried to record the world in which they live. It is a signpost along the way that shows how it can be done—how it should be done. It is a must for anyone who has spent a life in photography. It is a must for anyone who is beginning a career with a camera. It is a must for anyone." -- Excerpt from review on photovision magazine website (see link).
