Photography as Fiction
From as early as 1839, artists began exploring photography's enormous potential for storytelling and often went to great lengths to create pictures for the camera. Here, a short introductory essay summarizes the history of staged photogaphy, highlighting key debates on the medium's blunt factuality and its capacity for deception.
Looking at Photographs
From its origins at the end of the 1830s, photography has evolved both aesthetically and technologically. This guide explains the technical terms used in photography, and offers an account of the dramatic rise of digital photography. It is suitable for those wishing to increase their understanding and enjoyment of the art of photography.
Impure Vision
American staged art photography is the focus of this unique, in-depth study. Offering a new methodological strategy for viewing photographs, this fascinating account analyzes the work of four of the leading names in this new genre - Les Krims, Duane Michals, Arthur Tress, and Lucas Samaras - and applies new perspectives to 1970s art photography. As it sheds fresh light on the four artists' critiques of purist ideals, it also looks closely at their efforts to transcend the limitations of the purely visual effect of photography. Not only does this book tell the history of American staged photography in broad terms by drawing on theories and methods new to the field, but it also presents the latest approaches to photography history and theory.
