American Photo

By Jack Crager Posted June 15, 2015

This is at once an homage to the analog world of film photography, a capsule history of the medium’s digital revolution, and an engaging conversation with noted photographers about the transition between them.  Wang combines his own black-and-white portraits with interviews of photographic peers, including Sally Mann, Jeff Jacobson, Susan Meiselas, and Elliott Erwitt–as well as technical pioneers such as Thomas Knoll, co-inventor of Photoshop–about the pros and cons of each side in the darkroom-vs.-digital divide.  While most concur that the digital side has an insurmountable advantage, this is a poignant reminder that the debate lives on.
