Unlike recent publications on Wall's work, this volume treats his oeuvre from a profoundly theoretical angle, inviting scholars to contribute to an understanding of the multi-layered character of his art and to focus on aspects that have up until now received little attention: Wall's reaction to the avant-garde discussion of the 1970s, his position within post-conceptual(...)

Summary:

Published to accompany the noted exhibition at the Museum Moderner Kunst Stiftung Ludwig in Vienna, this essay collection also specifically concentrates on Wall's close link to the tradition of documentary photography and to photographers like Walker Evans and Dorothea Lange. The book includes essays by Peter Bürger, Achim Hochdörfer, Tom Holert, Homay King, Kaja Silverman, Fred Orton, Gregor Stemmrich, and Friedrich Tietjen.

Summary:
Moving the critical debate about photography away from its current Euro-American centre of gravity, "Photography’s Other Histories" breaks with the notion that photographic history is best seen as the explosion of a Western technology advanced by the work of singular individuals. This collection presents a different account, describing photography as a globally disseminated and locally appropriated medium. Essays firmly grounded in photographic practice — in the actual making of pictures — suggest the extraordinary diversity of nonwestern photography "Photography’s Other Histories" explores from a variety of geographic, cultural, and historic perspectives the role of photography in raising historical consciousness. It includes two first-person pieces by indigenous Australians and one by a Seminole/Muskogee/Diné artist. Some of the essays analyze representations of colonial subjects—from the limited ways Westerners have depicted Navajos to Japanese photos recording the occupation of Manchuria and from the changing nature of the "contract" between Aboriginal subjects and photographers to the surprising range of cultural influences evident in the photographs colonialist F. R. Barton took in New Guinea in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Focusing on photographic self-fashioning and the development of vernacular modernisms, other essays highlight the visionary quality of much popular photography. Case studies centered in early-twentieth-century Peru and contemporary India, Kenya, and Nigeria chronicle the diverse practices that have flourished in postcolonial societies. "Photography’s Other Histories" recasts popular photography around the world, as not simply reproducing culture but creating it.

Summary:
''Adjusting the lens'' explores the role of photography in contemporary renegotiations of the past and in Indigenous art activism. In moving and powerful case studies, contributors analyze photographic practices and heritage related to Indigenous communities in Canada, Australia, Greenland, Norway, Sweden, Finland, and the United States. In the process, they call attention to how Indigenous people are using old photographs in new ways to empower themselves, revitalize community identity, and decolonize the colonial record. ''Adjusting the lens'' presents original research in this emerging field in Indigenous photography studies, juxtaposing the historical and the contemporary across a range of geographically and culturally distinctive contexts. The transnational perspective of this exciting collection challenges old ways of thinking and meaningfully advances the crucially important project of reclamation.

This extraordinary collection establishes Mayer as a master of photography, one of the first in a line of street photographers that includes André Kertész and Henri Cartier-Bresson. Mayer's photographs, taken during the last years of the horse and carriage, offer us a rare and intimate vision of a bygone age. The result is a book that is lyrical, moving, and exquisitely beautiful.

L'objectif de cette campagne photographique d'ampleur était d'inciter à l'amélioration de l'habitat berlinois et à l'éradication de l'insalubrité. Cette collection est exceptionnelle dans l'histoire de la photographie, à plus d'un titre : par son thème : approche photographique des espaces domestiques en présence de leurs occupants ; par son époque : juste avant et pendant la Grande Guerre ; par sa durée : sur deux décennies ; par son unité de lieu, au coeur de Berlin ; par sa prouesse technique : photographier des intérieurs sombres constitue une difficulté majeure. Le document dans son ensemble renseigne également tout un pan de l'économie liée au travail à domicile. L'articulation logement/atelier est très explicite : on perçoit l'espace du travail et les dispositifs techniques qui s'y rattachent. Par leur qualité, leur vérité, leur rigueur documentaire (notamment par la précision des légendes), elles sont saisissantes et peuvent susciter un certain effroi au vu des conditions d'habiter une métropole ouvrière au tournant du XXe siècle. Elles nous font pénétrer au sein des foyers et de l'espace privé des classes populaires, dans l'univers des mal logés et même des sans-abri qu'on y accueille.

He made a name for himself in the early eighties with oversized, superrealistic color portraits of his artist friends and as a pioneer of the Diasec process used to mount photographic images onto acrylic glass, thereby obviating frames, liberating photography from the print gallery and paving the way to the "grand gallery" museum walls for large-format photos. This collection presents selected works from Thomas Ruff's large-format series, beginning with his small Interiors, the large Portraits, his Architectural Photos, the Starry Skies, his abstract Substrata, the Nudes, which make use of pornographic material taken from the internet, and finally his latest creation: Stellar Landscapes. The book features essays by Thomas Weski and Okwui Enwezor and appears in conjunction with an extensive Thomas Ruff retrospective exhibition at the Haus der Kunst in Munich."
