What can photographic form teach us about feminist historiography? Through close readings of photographs by visual artist and documentary photographer Sheba Chhachhi, who documented the struggle for women’s rights in India from the 1980s onward, this article outlines the political stakes of documentary photography’s formal conventions. First, it analyzes candid snapshots of recent protests for women’s rights in India, focusing on an iconic photograph by Chhachhi of Satyarani Chadha, a community organizer and women’s rights activist, at a rally in New Delhi in 1980.

Abstract:

My paper investigates the meeting of theatre and photography in ‘theatre photography’. Recognizing that both art forms can determine theoretical and philosophical views on representation and self-representation, I aim to compare their visual strategies and the way they construct point of view. In the process several questions are raised: do qualities of photographs belong to objects photographed or to photographs themselves? How important is the object that ‘triggers’ the view? Should the theatre photographer place his camera anywhere? What of framing? In the second section I offer an analysis

Both films reflect an intricate practice and aesthetic element of the director – the use of still photography, which for him is both a research tool and a stylistic device present throughout his career. “Salty Bread” includes photographs as a stylistic element allowing the viewer to prolong observation of particular images, whereas in “At Noon” still pho

The work of an Austrian artist Lukas Birk can be connected to some dilemmas of documentary photography. If the critique of the classical documentary photography stresses the responsibility towards the photographed subject and the problem of the exoticization for the western view, Birk’s work is often developed, displayed and distributed in the place where his projects are created. Therefore, the first audience of his projects are locals and are, in that way, maybe more closely connected to the project itself.

“No one can leave the cave”. With this phrase, Joan Fontcuberta targets the heart of the ontology of the photographic image and exposes the fictional nature of “documentary” representations of reality. The consolidation of photography as a document, a consequence of techno-scientific culture associated in the 19th century with positivism and colonial expansion, concealed its Janus Bifrons nature for nearly a century. More than “representations”, photographs are taken as substitutes for the things photographed, and this status, associated with the idea of truth, makes them the ideal visual expr

On the whole, in critical discourse certain texts have been recognised as being distinct from GDR propaganda which sought to deliver alternative readings in their coded texts.

Early twentieth century (1900-1945) photography of northwestern Wyoming (including the Teton and Yellowstone areas) fits into a paradigm of regional photographic production that either conforms to the documentary or pictorial aesthetics most common in the era. Pictorial photography, especially, links the region to larger trends in the nation and can be analyzed to uncover previously unexamined assumptions about the value of photographic aesthetics and regional production within the milieu of fine art photography in the United States prior to WWII.

What contributed to Franck’s creative method was education in art history, the artistic phenomena of the first half of the 20th century, and collaboration with her husband, a prominent figure in documentary photography, co‐founder and ideologist of Magnum Photos, Henri Cartier‐Bresso

Abstract:

This article considers photographs of New York by two American radical groups, the revolutionary Workers Film and Photo League (WFPL) (1931–1936) and the ensuing Photo League (PL) (1936–1951), a less explicitly political concern, in relation to the adjacent historiographical contexts of street photography and documentary. I contest a historiographical tendency to invoke street photography as a recuperative model from the political basis of the groups, because such accounts tend to reduce WFPL’s work to ideologically motivated propaganda and obscure continuities between the two leagues.

Abstract:

This article examines Kodak photographs made by participant soldiers and photographer–correspondents working in the field for the illustrated press during the concluding phase of the 1883–1898 campaign to defeat an Islamist insurgency in the Egyptian Sudan, whose leaders sought to create a regional caliphate. It explores how the presence of early generation portable cameras impacted on image making practices on British operations, and how aspects of campaign experience were subsequently represented in Kodak-derived photograph albums.

Abstract:

The author argues that visual media, including photography, converted into textual form, are increasingly intertwined with non-fiction. Among the examples is the philosophical and documentary novel by Maria M. Stepanova “In Memory of Memory. Romance” (2017). Thе article is devoted to the analysis of the phenomenon of photography in the novel “In Memory of Memory”, in which photographic images receive a verbal description (i. e. the textualization of photography). This type of text is defined both as ekphrasis (Nina V. Braginskaya, James Heffernan, Alina Banea, etc.) and meta-photographic text

Abstract:

Compassion, theorists from Arendt to Nussbaum suggest, carries an ineluctable pressure to identify with individual suffering. The very idea of a politics of compassion verges on incoherence. Politics typically demands attention to the aggregate and it is just there that compassion falters. This is a problem for critics addressing the politics of photography, who typically presume that the point of photographs must be to elicit compassion among viewers. But a proper understanding of compassion makes this presumption highly problematic. The role of compassion in exemplary writings on the politic

Abstract:

On two occasions (around 1932–1933 and after the war, between 1946 and 1950), Stanisław Kolowca (1904–1968) undertook the task of creating the photographic documentation of the reredos of the altar of the Dormition of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Kraków (Poland). The stature of Wit Stwosz’s work – widely recognized as one of the key late Gothic masterpieces in Europe – could be the only factor legitimizing the status of Kolowca’s photographs. Nevertheless, the photographs seem to deserve a thorough analysis for other reasons as well. It should be underlined that in his project Kolowca did not fo

Steve Edwards teaches history and theory of photography and is a fiery, self-described “radical from a working-class background”, “post-Trotskyist” and “socialist feminist”, who reads “Marx and more Marx”. We met in 2016 in Lisbon at an academic conference on Photography and the Left, where he was one of the keynote speakers. Edwards’ paper tracked the changes in relation to the Left and the documentary movement in Britain from the 1970s to the present day, his argument consisting in that documentary and social class are closely entwined.

Abstract:

Modern literary criticism pays much attention to the theme of photography in fiction. R. Barth and his followers emphasize the active interpenetration of the two arts, which results in a play with imprint, blur, and image. Photography turns out to be a point of reference for reconstructing the past. The photographic image claims to be an archival document necessary for reconstructing the past, and the photograph claims to be completely objective, though limited by a subjective position. In the plot of A Perez Revert’s novel «The Battler» the camera, as well as photography itself, occupies a sp

Abstract:

Harnessing concepts related to memory, trace, time and the archive, this article examines in detail the highly distinctive city photography of French photographer Stéphane Couturier. It focuses on the ways in which two of Couturier's major series, Archéologie urbaine (1994–2010) and Melting Point (2005–13), investigate the fabric of urban environments in Europe and beyond, concentrating in the first case on heritage layers and pockets of demolition or reconstruction, and in the second on the pervasive modular architecture of urban and peri-urban blocks.

Abstract:

This article investigates the ways in which contemporary media artworks across various platforms provide a fresh look at the photographic inscription of reality by animating the still photograph with digitally produced movement. These artworks are based on what the author calls ‘digital moving pictures’, hybrid images in which photographic stillness and cinematic movement are interrelated in a single picture frame by the mediation of digital imaging systems. Examining the works of Jim Campbell, Ken Jacobs, David Claerbout, Julie Meltzer and David Thorne, the author argues that the pictures’ bl

Said exploration will reveal the importance that the Tohoku region has for the projects of both photographers, as well as the exploration of the relationship between the visible and the invisible in photography. In parallel, the main thematic concerns and visual strategies of his photographic productions will be detailed, as well as the impact they have on the history of photography in Japan and the possibilities th
