Image and Essence Footnotes Bibliography vii This thesis is part of a losger wosk-ic-progress on pha+ograpftic criticisoa, the miri purpose of which is 'to Liberate photagrap+.y from ths confines cif its current ideological frameworks. The geceral aettod of that work is set forth in this thesis, and will be follovea up by accou~tscf how individual photographic artists have fought against the cofiventicnal concepts of the photograph as representation, and how the form and style of their works reflect this struggle. The reader is therefore invited to consult other reviews and articles that 1 have writteri on this topic. 1 viii Photagraphy: the Search for ar~assthetic Despite its increasing popularity and accdptanca as a fine art, photography remaias onE of the asst pr~blematicand barren areas of serious aesthetic critiuist~. Hithic the last ten years voices as diverse as Ap~lrtuwgand Wu2.a~Photoqrg~hy have called attention %a this vacuum, but there is still no recognized and cc herent body of photographic critic is^, Or. the whole, the greatEst obstacle to the gsawth sf such criticism is the habit of rggizrdlng the carnera as a sy~tax-free and scjmeuhat passive instrumect suitabk for merely recordisg visual images. The pre-history of photographic c~iticismis tho battle for the recogcition of photography as an exprsssive wediua fought hy Alfred Steiglitz, the F/54 group, and a number of other photcgraphers, curators, editofs, art historians acd critics. To a large exte~ttheir goal has been accoiaplished aad phctography is row accepted by museums, galleries and art schools as a legitimate field of interest. But ia a short aoncgraph on The Criticism @ Photography. 2s (197(1)2, Profassor John L,bkard suggested that there is still a residual refusal, on the part of prcfessional critics, tc treat photography as soia~+.hlngother that a mechanical cperatior. sccessible to artist a~dnon- artist alike, r~garal~usof ski11 or tzaicing, Vard suggested that the general public complements this attitude by respordinq to the subject matrer of photographs rather thar, to the style of d-;piction.3 Horf recently B.D, Coleman, fcrmer critic for the Villaae Voice and gg~York Times, has cites some immwiiate anG practical obstacles to the creation ot an on-goiag discussion. As Coleman points out, there are fen public forums for the axchacg~of views aside from consuwer-oriented magazines largely dominated by the commercial interests of advestisers. This of ten engenders a cheap pseudo-criticism which either reflects the momentary idiosyccrasies of a particular reviewer, or discusses the image as an end-product of certain combinations of equipwnt. Coleman noted that the readership of these magazines uses photography primarily as a craft or hobby, and rsspords to critical writing by cft~nrequesting informa tion on cameras and lenses. Speaking from experience, Ccfl-aman deplored #'the lack of a func+,ior,al. vocabulary for the criticism of photography." The language currently applied to photographs as distinct fro@ other kicds of images is derived ~ntirely frcm the jargon of tech~ique; it is a form cf shop talk which pertains to the manufacturiny of photographs as cb jects rather than to their 5f~rkinCjsoh effects as images. Ir essence, it deals not with the creative/intelfectua1 problems of the photographer as artist and communicator, but xith the practical difficulties faced by the photographer as craftsman.* There are a number of additicnal problems which hinder critical discourse. Ccntemporary aesthetic theory relies tteavif y on definitions and distinctions, but the term "photcgraphW apppliss aqually to snapshots, photograms, x-ray acd aerial phctcgraphs, co~mrcialportraits and wedding pictures, i.d, and passport shots, and a variety of other images made for purely utilitarian pu rposes.The borderlines betuaer; some conimerciaf work - in advertisi~g,architectural cr fashion photography - ar,d '$fine arte photographs are often indistinguishable, Photomicrographs made during the course of scientific research have often beer. exhibited for their aesthetic qualities. at what point can or shculd a critic wake meaningful distinctions between art and technology? S~condly,photogsaphshave become a commonplace eleiwnt in the mass media and we are exposed to dozens, if not hundreds of ~hotographsdaily in newspaFers, magazims, books, posters, an TV, billboards, caie~dars,etc. One result of this widespread usage fs that photographs have corns to b~ @oreuskd than viewed since ?hey compete with other messages for our attention. Photographers are increasingly faced with a situation nct unlike that ~xp~riencedby pcets of the early ninete~cthcentury, whsn advertising and the popular press threatened to reduce poetic dictioc to a liiggu xglqaris for selfiog insuranc~policies and diuretics,s Photography is deeply embedded in vbat is now called i*popufar culture", a sub-ject which has drawn only a minimum of scholarly interest, Critics cf Mfir,e artw have avoided the area en tire1y. 6 Photography has also blosscmed out during a particularly chaotic pzriod in the history of the arts and their criticism, As Harold Rosenberg aptly put it, the w~rkof art has become "an asxious objecta. "*Am I a masterpiece, it must ask itself, 'or ar, asscmhlage of j~ntc?*~f7With the profusiot of styles and wcvements during the last century criticisnt has become a fairly risky activity.

It was ehat co new work, no matter how apparently senseless, repulsive or visually vacant, could be rejected without runnirig the risk that it would turn up as a masterpiece of the era.

Abstract Impact cratering is an abrupt, spectacular process that occurs on any world with a solid surface. On Earth, these craters are easily eroded or destroyed through endogenic processes. The Moon and Mercury, however, lack a significant atmosphere, meaning craters on these worlds remain intact longer, geologically. In this thesis, remote-sensing techniques were used to investigate impact melt emplacement about Mercury’s fresh, complex craters. For complex lunar craters, impact melt is preferentially ejected from the lowest rim elevation, implying topographic control. On Venus, impact melt is preferentially ejected downrange from the impact site, implying impactor-direction control. Mercury, despite its heavily-cratered surface, trends more like Venus than like the Moon.

  • The History of Photography: the Research Library of the Mack Lee
    THE HISTORY OF PHOTOGRAPHY The Research Library of the Mack Lee Gallery 2,633 titles in circa 3,140 volumes Lee Gallery Photography Research Library Comprising over 3,100 volumes of monographs, exhibition catalogues and periodicals, the Lee Gallery Photography Research Library provides an overview of the history of photography, with a focus on the nineteenth century, in particular on the first three decades after the invention photography. Strengths of the Lee Library include American, British, and French photography and photographers. The publications on French 19th- century material (numbering well over 100), include many uncommon specialized catalogues from French regional museums and galleries, on the major photographers of the time, such as Eugène Atget, Daguerre, Gustave Le Gray, Charles Marville, Félix Nadar, Charles Nègre, and others. In addition, it is noteworthy that the library includes many small exhibition catalogues, which are often the only publication on specific photographers’ work, providing invaluable research material. The major developments and evolutions in the history of photography are covered, including numerous titles on the pioneers of photography and photographic processes such as daguerreotypes, calotypes, and the invention of negative-positive photography. The Lee Gallery Library has great depth in the Pictorialist Photography aesthetic movement, the Photo- Secession and the circle of Alfred Stieglitz, as evidenced by the numerous titles on American photography of the early 20th-century. This is supplemented by concentrations of books on the photography of the American Civil War and the exploration of the American West. Photojournalism is also well represented, from war documentary to Farm Security Administration and LIFE photography.
