"(...) un poignant souci de la vérité." Paris capitale, Paris
Paris capitale, Paris
France
"Hay palabras que nunca van solas: la derecha siempre es ultra, el capitalismo siempre es salvaje, y los marcos siempre son incomparables. Al fotógrafo estadounidense le pasa algo similar: resulta casi imposible escribir su nombre sin añadirle la coletilla 'polémico'. America es el libro más reciente de Andrés Serrano. (...) ¿Mappelthorpe? Bah, niñerías. America está editado por TASCHEN."

"Der 1950 in New York geborene Fotokünstler Andres Serrano arbeitet mit der Kamera genauso detailverliebt und präzise wie ein Maler mit dem Pinsel. Das Ergebnis: eindringliche Bilder, manchmal schockierend, oft wunderschön."
Elle, München

"If you have had hernia surgery recently, do not attempt to lift this book. This has to be one of the heaviest books to come across Shelf Life desks in in a long time, and on that is definitely the most visually fascinating. It is a photography book like few before it, and not even the camera of Helmut Newton could come close to duplicating the intensity of Serrano's work."
Shelf Life, London (Ontario)

"Serrano siempre choca -shockea, más bien-, confronta, obliga a mirar y a voltear los ojos. Todas esas etapas aparecen en America and Other Work. Son las Other Work porque el plato fuerte de esta edición de TASCHEN es la serie de retratos America. Serrano considera America uno de sus mayores logros. En tres años de trabajo logró más de 100 retratos con los que representa la diversidad cultural de los inmigrantes, siempre filtrada por su lente crítica. Celebridades como Arthur Miller, Snoop Dogg, Anna Nicole Smith, B.B. King o Vanessa del Rio, junto con la gente de la calle: un proxeneta, un boy scout, un ama de casa musulmana, un médico, un obispo de la Iglesia ortodoxa rusa. America es una obra íntima, honesta, que demanda una respuesta, al igual que todo el trabajo de Serrano."
Complot Magazine, Caracas-Miami
United States
"Die Welt des Fotografen Andres Serrano ist ebenso grausam wie energiegeladen."
Vogue, München
Germany
"Graphic sexual acts are the tip of the iceberg when you open America and Other Works. Be brave and dive in."
Digital Photography, London
United Kingdom
"I don't know what the book says about America, but it says a lot about Serrano as a photographer: namely, that he has reinvented himself and altered his vision in a profound and compelling way."
Photo District News, New York
United States
"Kaum ein Bildband hält die zeitgenössische Vielfalt, die sozio-kulturellen Gegensätze Amerikas so fest wie Serranos gewaltiger, opulenter Bildermix. Manchmal atemberaubende, beizeiten erschütternde und nie oberflächliche Aufnahmen"
foto magazin, Hamburg
Germany
"L'homme a un vrai talent "classique", directement inspiré de la grande peinture religieuse. Bâti autour d'une galerie de portraits censés symboliser les USA, ce livre est surtout un étonnant voyage dans les arcanes kitsch d'une âme torturée et tapageuse. Pour un public averti."
