Experimental Vision
The Evolution of the Photogram since 1919
The Experimental Darkroom
The Experimental Darkroom is a book focused on traditional black & white photographic materials—darkroom chemistry and silver gelatin paper—now used in many non-traditional ways. The book starts with a comprehensive digital negatives chapter. Topics are divided into five sections: cameraless experimentation, camera experimentation, printing experimentation, finished print experimentation, and a section highlighting contemporary photographers who use these approaches today. Each process under discussion is accompanied by photographic examples and a step-by-step method written in a “Just the facts, ma’am” style. Topics included are: Photograms and clichés verre Lumen prints Chemigra...
James Welling
Hugely influential among contemporary art photographers, James Welling has created beautiful and uncompromising photographs for more than 35 years. Operating in the hybrid ground between painting, sculpture and traditional photography, Welling is first and foremost a photographic practitioner enthralled with the possibilities of the medium. James Welling: Monograph provides the most thorough presentation of the artist's work to date. Since the mid-1970s, Welling's work has explored realism and transparency, abstraction and representation, optics and description, personal and cultural memory, and the material and chemical nature of photography. To date, the artist has been the subject of nume...
Light, Paper, Process
From its beginnings, photography has been shaped by the desire to understand and explore the essence of the medium. Light, Paper, Process features the work of seven artists—Alison Rossiter, Marco Breuer, James Welling, Lisa Oppenheim, Chris McCaw, John Chiara, and Matthew Brandt—who investigate the possibilities of analog photography by finding innovative, surprising, and sometimes controversial ways to push light-sensitive photographic papers and chemical processing beyond their limits. A panoply of practices emerges in the work of these artists. Some customize cameras with special lenses or produce images on paper without a camera or film. Others load paper, rather than film, in the ca...
Am Rande der Fotografie
Weshalb gibt es eine Geschichte der Fotografie, jedoch keine des Fotogramms? Ausgehend von einer Analyse der Fotografie-Historiografie, die Fotogrammarbeiten in eine "Vorgeschichte" verlagert, widmet sich die Publikation insbesondere dem Ausschluss von Frauen als Produzentinnen kameraloser Fotografien: technizistisch wie kunsthistorisch geprägte Fotografie-Geschichten rückten "männlich" kodierte "Meisterwerke" in den Vordergrund. Mithilfe der Geschlechtergeschichte und feministischen Wissenschaftskritik bricht die Untersuchung solch "objektivierende" Meister-Erzählungen jedoch auf und macht "blinde Flecken" sichtbar . Unter Einbeziehung zahlreicher Fallstudien arbeitet sie abseits gängiger Historisierungsweisen die historische Relevanz dieses bisher vernachlässigten Mediums heraus.
Recent Advances in Lichenology
This book discusses in detail molecular, mycobiont culture, biomonitoring and bioprospection of lichens, providing insights into advances in different fields of lichenology by applying modern techniques and approaches and examining how their application has enhanced or changed classical approaches. It offers a valuable resource, especially for beginners, students and researchers from different academic backgrounds interested in the study of lichens. In recent years, the introduction of modern analytical techniques and approaches has significantly improved our understanding of the environment, including lichens. Lichens are unique organisms which possess untapped potential as effective and re...
