"Son" is a collection of works by American photographer Christopher Anderson (1970-). Anderson, who has built an international reputation through years of covering conflict zones, winning the Robert Capa Gold Medal, and being a member of Magnum Photos, has shifted his focus from world events to his family since the late 2000s, pioneering a new form of photographic expression. This book is a representative work that marked a turning point in that shift. Prompted by the birth of his son Atlas, Anderson distanced himself from war photography and turned his camera on his own family for the first time in this series. Combining the birth of a new life with his father's diagnosis of lung cancer, the book quietly weaves together universal themes of "life and death" and "being a father and being a son." This book is an expanded new edition based on the work published in 2013, reorganized with new editing by Stanley/Barker, and includes approximately 80 pages and 40 previously unpublished works in addition to the original. A "second chapter" has been added, following the time spent with the growing Atlas, and the way the father-son relationship changes over time is organically depicted within a single book. This book symbolizes Stanley/Barker's publishing philosophy, which is not simply to republish their masterpieces, but to breathe new life into them through new editing.
