商品描述

Photography is not dying and has not died. It has been an ever-changing medium since its earliest days, and while near-obsession with the technology of the day may have defined photography over the course of its existence, photography is so much more than hardware and software. Photography is communication, whether chemical or digital, tangible or ephemeral in form.

Photography Beyond Technique is a compelling selection of essays and images that reveal the thoughts and methods of some of today’s most exciting contemporary photographers. These artists employ alternative, historical, or handmade processes and techniques, and they share a comprehensive view of the medium: that the choice of photographic process is just as important as the selection of subjects. While other books concentrate solely on process, or theory, or artistic intent, none focus on photography in which these decisions are considered inseparable.

These 20 essays, originally presented at the annual F295 symposium and seminar series, provide a thought-provoking read for anyone interested in photography as an art form and as a medium through which to view the world. Includes:

  • "Looking Backward, Seeing Forward: Reframing Visual History" by Robert Hirsch
  • "Mystery, Memory, and Narrative" by Martha Casanave
  • "Finding Confidence: Combining Process with Purpose" by Mark Osterman
  • "Photograph, Material, and Metaphor" by Jerry Spagnoli

商品描述(中文翻譯)

攝影並未衰亡,也從未死亡。自從早期以來,攝影一直是一個不斷變化的媒介,儘管對當今技術的近乎痴迷可能在攝影的歷史中佔據主導地位,但攝影遠不僅僅是硬體和軟體。攝影是一種溝通方式,無論是化學還是數位,無論是有形還是無形。

《攝影超越技術》是一本引人入勝的文章和圖片選集,揭示了當今一些最令人興奮的當代攝影師的思想和方法。這些藝術家運用替代、歷史或手工製程和技術,並分享了對媒介的全面觀點:攝影過程的選擇和主題的選擇一樣重要。儘管其他書籍僅專注於過程、理論或藝術意圖,但沒有一本書專注於這些決策不可分割的攝影。

這20篇文章最初是在年度F295研討會和研討系列中發表的,為任何對攝影作為藝術形式和通過其觀察世界的媒介感興趣的人提供了引人思考的閱讀。包括:

- 由羅伯特·赫希(Robert Hirsch)撰寫的《回顧過去,展望未來:重新定義視覺歷史》
- 由瑪莎·卡薩納夫(Martha Casanave)撰寫的《神秘、記憶和敘事》
- 由馬克·奧斯特曼(Mark Osterman)撰寫的《尋找自信:將過程與目的結合》
- 由傑瑞·斯帕尼奧利(Jerry Spagnoli)撰寫的《攝影、物質和隱喻》
