Résumé:
Ce livre est un hommage aux images à la fois tendres et violentes de la photographe Nan Goldin. Goldin est une guerrière, une gardienne de la mémoire. Elle lutte pour qu’on n’oublie pas la vie des femmes, des sidéens, des bannis. Depuis la mort brutale de sa sœur aînée adorée, elle se bat pour le souvenir de ceux qu’elle a perdus. Goldin est une gorgone dont le regard sidère. Elle demande de poser les yeux sur ce qui est étranger, elle exige que les secrets soient dénudés. Martine Delvaux met ici ses pas dans les pas de Goldin, et avance avec elle dans la colère, la rébellion et l’amour fou.

August Sander (1876-1964), Walker Evans (1903-1975) : ils ont produit quelques-unes des icônes du XXe siècle tout en prétendant n’y être pour rien. Le « style documentaire » (la formule est d’Evans, 1935) relève du paradoxe.

Le « style documentaire » (la formule est d’Evans, 1935) relève du paradoxe. Par quel miracle ces photographes qui présentent leurs œuvres comme des duplications du monde, de purs reflets, qui assurent que c’est le motif qui fait la photo, que c’est le modèle qui dicte l’image, par quel miracle ces réductionnistes, ces objectivistes ont-ils non seulement engendré une suite infinie de disciples, mais aussi fourni les témoignages les plus durables sur l’Allemagne de Weimar (Sander) et sur l’Amérique de la Dépression (Evans) ?

Résumé:
With the advent of digital technologies and the Internet, photography can, at last, fulfill its promise and forgotten potential as both a versatile medium and an adaptable creative practice. This multidisciplinary volume provides new insights into the shifting cultures affecting the production, collection, use, and circulation of photographic images on the Web. International contributors from across the arts and humanities consider fundamental concepts that are associated with the practical applications of convergent technologies and media, focusing on the role of digital and mobile cultures and image-making in the everyday life of citizens and their experience of today’s hypervisual digital universe, while exploring how contemporary artists creatively interact with such new photographic contexts.

Résumé:
Over the now more than forty-five years that he has been studying and exploring photography, Christian Vogt has discovered new visual vocabularies again and again. In his new work, consisting almost exclusively of contrasting pairs of pictures, he continues to question the relationship between visible reality and its photographic reproduction, between image and text, between seeing and knowing. Using a pinhole camera and modern technology without the intervention of digital manipulation, he deals with the “necessary nonsense,” with unifying opposites, with actual and supposed paradoxes, defining some things through exploration and allowing others to remain undefined.

Résumé:
What is the status and potential of the photo-book? Not only does the photo-book facilitate other means of display and distribution than gallery exhibitions, the book format also allows for challenges of photographys instantaneousness, illusions of movement, and investigations of the photographic language. The photo-book has furthermore been seminal in the distribution of avant-garde conceptual photography, as well as social documentary and political statements. Is the photo-book today mainly a mainstream medium, a collectors item, or a platform for artistic experiments? This collection of essays addresses current phenomenological, technological, and practical possibilities for communicating through photo-books and other visual narratives.

Résumé:
As traces left behind by the last 200 years of profound historical change, architecture and photography contribute both to the contemporary skyline and to our image of the past. Their common history provides an indispensable background to discussions of what has been called the contemporary past modernity considered as an open problem rather than a closed historical period. In both cases, an irregular border can be traced between the discursive and its opposite, the material. The intersection offers an interesting confrontation between traditional academic historiography and the artistic application of historical perspectives, an exploration of the contemporary past.

Résumé:
The real world is full of cameras; the virtual world is full of images. Where does all this photographic activity leave the artist-photographer? Post-Photography tries to answer that question by investigating the exciting new language of photographic image-making that is emerging in the digital age of anything-is-possible and everything-has-been-done-before. Found imagery has become increasingly important in post-photographic practice, with the internet serving as a laboratory for a major kind of image-making experimentation. But artists also continue to create entirely original works using avant-garde techniques drawn from both the digital and analogue eras. This book is split into five sections – Something Borrowed, Something New; Layers of Reality; All the World Is Staged; Hand and Eye; and Post-Photojournalism – which cover the key strategies adopted by 53 of the most exciting and innovative international artist-photographers of the 21st century.

Résumé:
Even before being printed in a book to narrate true life (as much as it may seem brutal or idillyc), or to recall the features of a face, since its early years photography has been “exhibited” to audiences. An history of photography narrated through exhibitions and the theory that has accompanied it has never been carried out yet. It would be very interesting, furthermore, to trace back the different aesthetic schools and communication theories that have pointed out the evolution of the history of photography and its public moments par excellence: exhibitions. Installations manifest values, ideologies, politics and aesthetics. An history of photography exhibitions would represent a different and original way of studying photography as a means of expression and contemporary communication. Nowadays photography plays its role on the art and collection market with an unexpected strength and vigour. The discovery and success of a new talent on the market depends on the common work of private galleries, public spaces and the international limelight. The activity of American and European Photography Museums, the numerous great art events and festivals – especially dedicated to the world and market of photography, art galleries that discover new talents and new ways of exhibiting them, all this contributes to a system that works perfectly well presenting new ways of expression for photography, actually widely recognized as heritage of humanity.
