Recenzii
Photographies East is remarkable in many ways. As the first systematic consideration of photography in East and Southeast Asia, it offers some of the most acute reflections on the different workings and effects of photography in non-Western contexts. It will also stir fresh thinking about the relationship between history and anthropology in the wake of the camera. Vicente Rafael, author of The Promise of the Foreign: Nationalism and the Technics of Translation in the Spanish PhilippinesThrough its radical attention to the unexpected, this bold and provocative collection asks vital questions about the disturbance created by photography. The sweep and intensity of this stellar ensemble make an essential contribution to our understanding of the photographic world-system.Christopher Pinney, author of Camera Indica: The Social Life of Indian Photographs
