This remarkable book, which includes more than 100 beautifully reproduced photographs, traces Callahan's career from the early 1940s to the present day and illuminates the connections between his subject matter and his constant experimentationCallahan has consistently explored new ways of looking at the world around him - from high-contrast photographs of trees silhouetted against snow, to double exposures of his wife's nude figure merging into landscapes, to minimal abstractions - but he has used these experiments to reveal his relationships to the world around himAs a teacher at the Institute of Design in Chicago and the Rhode Island School of Design, he has influenced generations of younger photographers - and will continue to influence the art of photography for decades to come
