The Routledge Companion to Global Photographies: Routledge Art History and Visual Studies Companions

Editat de Lucy Soutter, Duncan Wooldridge
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 aug 2024
In response to widespread demand for more knowledge and insight about contemporary photographies beyond Western centers of production and dissemination, this volume provides a transnational discussion, grounded in dialogue between authors and editors from diverse locations and contexts.
Ecological and decolonial discourses around photography reveal the medium’s global entanglements: images produced on one side of the globe are the result of labors which span its full surface. At the same time, the multiplicity of approaches and understandings of the photograph reveal that, even though it might seem like a universal language, we utilize its tools to radically different ends. The volume explores issues surrounding cultural translation, photography’s response to climate change, decolonial practices, network formation, new materialities, identities and the role of photobooks. It also provides in-depth surveys and case studies of global practices and theories, alongside interviews and roundtable discussions with key figures whose perspectives illuminate the contemporary field.
This groundbreaking collection is an essential resource for academics and students working in or with photography, contextual studies, history, and theory, but also media and cultural studies more broadly.

Recenzii

“In this unprecedented geological era, the book chronicles the efforts of artists, photographers, writers, historians and institution builders to comprehend our time through the lens of photography, exploring its diversity, materiality, and the fractures it reveals.”
Sarker Protick, Photographer, Artist, and Co-curator Chobi Mela Festival
 “This Companion to Global Photographies is a remarkable and ambitious attempt in introducing a different, refreshing way to present some of the current, urgent conversations about photography - one that is multi-directional, polycentric and collaborative. By acknowledging and creating the space for the many perspectives and opacities around the thematics approached, the book presents itself as a powerful set of tools to approach photography as a medium in constant expansion, addressing its global interconnections. A welcomed initiative that will hopefully set fertile ground for more.”  
Elisa Medde, Independent Publisher and Curator
