"Photographs (Acceptable)" is a photobook by renowned American photographer Aaron Siskind. It's a masterpiece that shines brightly in the history of 20th-century photography. It was also nominated for "The Book of 101 Books," a historical collection of 101 of the most important photobooks of the 20th century by renowned photography historian Andrew Ross. By focusing on details that many people overlook—graffiti on walls, peeling paint, posters, and the textures of natural objects—Siskind creates works that resemble abstract paintings. It had a profound influence on artists such as Robert Rauschenberg, and is highly regarded as one of the works that helped promote the recognition of photography as not just a form of documentation but also as art in the postwar era. This masterpiece expresses through photography the profound appeal and joy of art, suggesting multifaceted ways of looking at things and stimulating various imaginations through the act of "seeing" objects and subjects.
