Résumé:
''Constructing Imperial Berlin'' is the first book to critically assess, contextualize, and frame urban and architectural photographs of the Imperial years in Berlin between 1871 and 1918. Berlin, as it was pronounced Germany's capital in 1871, was fraught with questions that had previously beset Paris and London. How was urban expansion and transformation to be absorbed? What was the city's understanding of its comparably short history? Given this short history, how did it embody the idea of a capital? A key theme of this book is the close interrelation of the city's rapid physical metamorphosis with repercussions on promotional and critical narratives, the emergence of groundbreaking photographic technologies, and novel forms of mass distribution.

Résumé:
This publication offers a spectrum of views on how the myriad forms of exhibiting photographies can increase our understanding of how images operate today, as well as what they do to us when we interact with them. In the Digital Age, “photography” is best described with adjectives connoting a medium in constant flux: liquid, fluid, flexible, unstable. As such, there is no primary format for displaying photographs. By drawing upon the diverse perspectives of a group of curators, scholars, photographers, and artists based in the field of contemporary photography, this volume aims to provide a foundation for a wider discourse about exhibiting photographies in the twenty-first century.

Résumé:
''Public, Private, Secret: On Photography & the Configuration of Self'' explores the roles that photography and video play in the crafting of identity, and the reconfiguration of social conventions that define our public and private selves. Consciously framed by our present era, this collection of essays, interviews, and reflections assesses how our image-making and consumption patterns are embedded and implicated in a wider matrix of online behavior and social codes, which in turn give images a life of their own. The writings address the various disruptions, resistances, and subversions that artists propose to the limited versions of race, gender, sexuality, and autonomy that populate mainstream popular culture.

Résumé:
Using the theme of Currency to invite reflection on the contemporary power of the photograph to relay and relate meaning across distance, the Triennial of Photography Hamburg explores the value of photography in the 21st century. The extension of this economic term to art and visual culture allows for a sustained engagement with photography and its relationship to value-making, canon-making, access, circulation, and knowledge production. At a time when the production, distribution, and consumption of photographic images has become ubiquitous and we have learned to structure our contemporary world through a lens, the digital image has become the currency of exchange on social platforms. Fostering interdisciplinary dialogue, this book gathers international perspectives that reflect on how photography shapes today’s narratives, as well as our perception and experience of the world.

The artists discussed are Tine Guns, Dirk Braeckman, Els Martens, Max Pinckers, Vincent Delbrouck and Aglaia Konrad.

Résumé:
Quatrième titre de la collection TXT dédiée aux diverses conceptions de l’image photographique et à l'évolution du médium, ce livre apporte un regard nouveau sur la photographie et sa pédagogie. Il rassemble une sélection d’essais sur les œuvres de plusieurs photographes parmi lesquels Ansel Adams, Eugène Atget, Dorothea Lange, Nicholas Nixon, Susan Meiselas, Michael Schmidt, Paul Strand, Edward Weston et leurs publications respectives. Le corpus de textes porte également sur différents genres, époques et sujets photographiques tels que l’expérience de l’espace dans l’Ouest américain chez les paysagistes du XIXe siècle, mais aussi des thèmes plus concrets comme les liens entre collectionneurs et photographes, ou comment vivre de sa pratique photographique. Robert Adams aborde également son thème de prédilection, qui sous-tend tout son travail, celui des questions environnementales et de la protection de la planète. Ces essais sont illustrés d’une trentaine de photographies et peintures reproduites en noir et blanc.
