Howard Schatz is so versatile that this volume at times seems like the work of a dozen photographers, Weegee, Avedon, Penn, Beaton, Newton, and Goude, among them. He has affection for his subjects -athletes, dancers, models, actors, pregnant moms, and interesting nobodies- and it shows in every remarkable image. Sometimes funny, often dramatic, he is a master both of the quiet revealing portrait and the explosive surprise. Graydon Carter, Editor in Chief - Vanity Fair To survey Howard Schatz's photographic career is to take a tour of a creative mind in perpetual motion. Often breathtaking and always thought-provoking, Howard's oeuvre is the result of a restless and inspired pursuit of beauty and insight. His images are the product of a once-in-generation intellect enabled by a truth-seeking eye. Gary Belsky, Editor in Chief - ESPN The Magazine Schatz Images 25 Years is a masterwork of innovation. Every page stops you with its power, every image surprises. You are looking at the work of an artist of ideas with an astonishing range. Like all great art, his images can change the way you think about the world. Terry McDonnell, Former Editor in Chief - Sports Illustrated The work is stunning... Schatz realizes his vision with an almost scientific methodology, proving once again that art and science have much in common, especially when the art is photography.
