Photography in Benezit

In 2013, Benezit commissioned 90 new articles and 42 revisions to biographies of photographers in an ongoing project to expand coverage in that area. In addition to important 19th- and early 20th-century photographers, such as André Kertész, Vivian Maier, Carl van Vechten, and T Lux Feininger, editors focused on adding entries on American photographers including Alfred Stieglitz, Walker Evans, and Alexander Gardner.

The initiative also highlighted the work of women photographers, culminating in the publication of a new study guide on American Women Photographers. New articles were added on Elizabeth Buehrmann, Gertrude Stanton Käsebier, Laura Gilpin, Imogen Cunningham, Dorothea Lange, Berenice Abbott, Lisette Model, Helen Levitt, and Margaret Bourke-White.
