Abstract
A rather critical interview with the author of ""American Photography - A
Critical History 1945 to the Present''. That book is indeed the topic of the
interview. The reason for publishing the book was the fact that there was not a
History of contemporary Photography. Opted was for a textual history, and the
photographs were not primary. The interviewers are critical on the selection of
photographers mentioned. As Green declares most of them as real innovator, Leo
and Brown interprete Green's choice as a choice for the ""museum-culture of
photography''. The book shows off as a History of Art-Photography, even as a
History of succesfull photographers. The choice seems compatibel with
Szarkowski's choice, and i.a. Roy DeCarava, Larry Fink or Ralph Gibson are not
included. (The article was originally published in ""exposure'', a magazine
from the SPE (USA) 1985). (German)
