Organized into three sections—Cities, Communities, and Artists and Models—the volume does not seek to be an encyclopedic history of portraiture, but rather an exploration of influences and parallels between creators. Each artist is represented by a sufficient number of works to understand their trajectory, offering a choral vision that privileges the vitality of the whole over individual achievements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book proposes a visual journey through the photographic portrait of the 20th and early 21st centuries, structured along three thematic axes. The \"Cities\" section examines how the urban environment conditions the representation of people. \"Communities\" focuses on group bonds and collective identity. Finally, \"Artists and Models\" explores the relationship between the photographer and their subject. Throughout these pages, the reader moves through space and time, recognizing mutual influences and significant parallels between the twenty-three selected authors, without claiming to provide an exhaustive historical reading.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eEvolution of the photographic portrait between 1916 and 2013\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRelationship between photographer and model in the creation of the image\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe city as a setting and determinant of the portrayed identity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRepresentation of communities and collective bonds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eInfluences and parallels between authors of different eras\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis catalogue is aimed at photography enthusiasts and professionals interested in the portrait genre, art and photography students looking for 20th-century visual references, and collectors or lovers of well-edited exhibition catalogues.
