I'm trying to rationalise my photography. not for myself but to explain to others why I am doing what I am doing. In the process I might get a glimpse of where my strong points lie, and where I could go with these.
Personally I'm much inclined to think that I'm shooting in a similar way people like Moholy-Nagy and Rodchenko were shooting. I want to deepen my knowledge of these photographers and, more importantly IMO, the art movements they "represent": Bauhaus and the Russian avant-garde movements like Constructivism.
Can anyone point me in the direction of a few good books on these men and/or art movements? I've been considering the following books:
