List of Camera Work issues

Camera Work is a journal featuring modern art and criticism that was published by Alfred Stieglitz between 1902 and 1917 as part of his efforts to promote fine art photography and modern painting and sculpture.^[1]^[2]

The journal initially focused on a genre of photography known as Pictorialism by featuring a group of artists promoted by Stiegltiz as the Photo-Secession.^[3] As Stieglitz' interests expanded beyond photography, Camera Work published some of the earliest printed discussions and reproductions of work by Picasso, Cezanne, Matisse, and Rodin.^[4]^[5]
