Shining Lights — Joy Gregory (editor), Taous Dahmani (associate editor). Published by MACK.
No survey or history is ever complete but at 448 pages, with work by more than fifty image makers, along with great texts and a fascinating chronology, Shining Lights is an invaluable resource. It maps out an extraordinary range of activity, along with the network of small but important exhibition spaces, publications, and community organizations that helped it flourish when almost no lights were shining upon it.
