Heart-rendering depictions by devoted photojournalists
16. November 2002
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
This book contains the best Pulitzer awarded pictures from its inception since 1942. Most of the photos are in B&W and you begin to realise how much more powerful and appropriate it is to be shot in this medium, as it strips away the epidermi of the scene and reveals the emotional flesh of the moment. Every photo is accompanied with a commentary about how it was made and the situation that exposed the determination, patience and grit of the photographer. And for each year that is chronicled, four thumbnail pics of other events in that year is depicted, to give a sense of the timeline of the situation.
This book makes you want to be a photojournalist.

The rest of the story: the winners since 1977
7. März 2008
Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
"Moments: The Pulitzer Prize-Winning Photographs" is the revised, updated book that contains all the Pulitzer photography winners, news and features, from 1942 through 2007, and compiled by Hal Buell. It is the complete volume in contrast to the book I reviewed recently: Moments: The Pulitzer Prize Photographs, which concluded with 1977, and compiled by Sheryle and John Leekley.
When I opened this package which arrived in the mail earlier this week, I sat down and started with 1977 and began page by page going through the new (to me) photographs, a "chronicle of our time" through Pulitzer photographs.
What makes this volume better than than original one (besides being more current) is size and organization. This is a coffee table-sized book, with both black and white and color photographs. The compiler, Hal Buell, also includes other photos from each year. All winners are categorized by five eras with explanatory material for each: One, the large format camera and the early Pulitzers; Two, the small camera and the Vietnam and Civil Rights photos; Three, a new kind of Pulitzer: the picture story; Four, color and digital photography, women photographers, and the Africa Pulitzers; Five, the digital revolution.
Storms, ethnic cleansing, cowboys at work, executions, mind-numbing prison life, the shooting of President Reagan, Baby Jessica, earthquakes, "the irrecoverables of Romania," the death of the Soviet Union, Rwanda and unbelievable starvation, Oklahoma City bombing, Kosovo refugees, the Bill and Lewanski saga, terrorist attack on the Twin Towers, war in Iraq, Hurricane Katrina and its devastation--all are here and more.
"Moments: The Pulitzer Prize-Winning Photographs" is a book to own, to treasure, to cherish, not because the photos depict winners, but because they are reality of a moment, not just one moment, but the many moments that make up the story. This book is not just about stories, but about many stories that make up the life we live, the life we know. This volume is a reminder of what has been. Very highly recommended.

Intense, Insightful, and True
11. Januar 2006
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
Thankfully, in its range of events, nations, and issues covered, the pictures inside go way beyond the front page. Many pictures convey a reality that people like to forget. How about a white man 'stabbing' a person of color with a flag pole -the US flag proudly flying? How about an undernourished Sudanese toddler collapsed on the desert sand with a vulture waiting for its chance in the background? The pictures depict many unanswered questions in a very intense and beautiful way. A very powerful book.
