Abstract The aim of my research is to demonstrate how a practice of hand made books based on the materiality of the photographic print and photo-reprography, could engage with notions of touch in the digital age. We take for granted that most artists’ books are made from paper using lithography and bound in the codex form, yet this technology has served neither producer nor reader well. As Hayles (2002:22) observed: We are not generally accustomed to thinking about the book as a material metaphor, but in fact it is an artifact whose physical properties and historical usage structure our interactions with it in ways obvious and subtle.

  • Introduction
    Introduction Martin Parr is a chronicler of our age. In the face of the constantly growing flood of images released by the media, his photographs offer us the opportunity to see the world from his unique perspective. At first glance, his photographs seem exaggerated or even grotesque. The motifs he chooses are strange, the colours are garish and the perspectives are unusual. Parr's term for the overwhelming power of published images is "propaganda". He counters this propaganda with his own chosen weapons: criticism, seduction and humour. As a result, his photographs are original and entertaining, accessible and understandable. But at the same time they show us in a penetrating way that we live, how we present ourselves to others, and what we value. Leisure, consumption and communication are the concepts that this British photographer has been researching for several decades now on his worldwide travels. In the process, he examines national characteristics and international phenomena to find out how valid they are as symbols that will help future generations to understand our cultural peculiarities. Parr enables us to see things that have seemed familiar to us in a completely new way. In this way he creates his own image of society, which allows us to combine an analysis of the visible signs of globalisation with unusual visual experiences. In his photos, Parr juxtaposes specific images with universal ones without resolving the contradictions. Individual characteristics are accepted and eccentricities are treasured. The themes Parr selects and his inimitable treatment of them set him apart as a photographer whose work involves the creation of extensive series.

  • “Highlights of a Trip to Hell” Contextualizing the Initial
    “Highlights Of A Trip To Hell” Contextualizing the Initial Reception of Larry Clark’s Tulsa by William T. Green A thesis project presented to Ryerson University and George Eastman House, Intentional Museum of Photography in Film In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the program of Photographic Preservation and Collections Management Rochester, New York, United States and Toronto, Ontario, Canada, 2013 © William T. Green 2013 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I authorize Ryerson University to lend this thesis to other institutions or individuals for the purpose of scholarly research. William T. Green I further authorize Ryerson University to reproduce this thesis by photocopying or by other means, in total or in part, at the request of other institutions or individuals for the purpose of scholarly research. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. William T. Green ii Abstract Released in 1971, Tulsa, American artist Larry Clark’s career-launching first photobook, is today remembered as marking a watershed moment in American photography. This paper travels back to the era that Tulsa was first published to examine the book’s initial critical reception and significance within that specific cultural and artistic climate. It presents an abbreviated overview of Tulsa’s gradual creation; illustrates the ways in which the book was both similar to and different from other commonly cited contemporaneous works; and surveys its evolving status and reputation throughout the 1970s and into the early 1980s, when its second edition was published.

  • • the Third and Final Volume in Phaidon's Acclaimed Photobook Series, Hailed As 'The Most Important Contribution to the Fi
    OVERVIEW • The third and final volume in Phaidon’s acclaimed Photobook series, hailed as ‘the most important contribution to the field since modern histories of photography began to appear in the early 20th century’ (photo-eye) • This comprehensive study of the contemporary photobook brings the history of the genre fully up to date, highlighting over 200 books dating from World War II to the present day • Photographer Martin Parr and co-author Gerry Badger offer a fresh approach to photographic history, focusing on the development of photography in its published form and covering key genres such as conflict, memory, society, place and desire • Features well-known photobooks, such as Ryan McGinley’s The Kids Are Alright (New York, 2000) and Paul Graham’s A Shimmer of Possibility (2009), alongside new discoveries and lesser-known works such as Tano d’Amico’s E il ‘77 (1978) and Mao Ishikawa’s Hot Nights in Camp Hansen (1982) • Richly illustrated with over 800 newly commissioned colour photographs SPECIFICATIONS • Hardback • English • 290 x 250 mm, 11 3/8 x 9 7/8 in •320 pp • 900 colour illustrations ABOUT THE BOOK Following the success of volumes I and II of The Photobook: A History (published in 2004 and 2009 respectively), this is the third volume bringing this study of the photobook fully up to date, with specific exploration of the contemporary, postwar photobook. It covers key themes including the globalization of photographic culture, the personalization of photobooks, the self-publishing boom and the new 'layered' photobook approach. While the history of photographs is a well-established canon, less critical attention has been directed at the phenomenon of the photobook, which for many photographers is perhaps the most significant vehicle for the display of their work and the communication of their vision to a mass audience.

  • 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.

Through close visual analyses of photojournalist, press, and social documentary photographs, this Ph.D examines the visual responses to the Government’s advocation of a ‘healthy’ society and its programme of social and economic ‘waste-saving’. Drawing Imogen Tyler’s interpretation of ‘social abjection’ (the discursive mediation of subjects through exclusionary modes of ‘revolting aesthetics’) into the visual field, this Ph.D explores photography’s implication in bolstering the abject and exclusionary discourses of the era. Exploring the contexts in which photographs were created, utilised and disseminated to visually convey ‘waste’ as an expression of social abjection, this Ph.D exposes how the Right’s successful establishment of a neoliberal political economy was supported by an accelerated use and deployment of revolting photographic aesthetics.

  • Badgering Parr
    Alec Soth's Archived Blog July 1, 2007 Badgering Parr Filed under: Magnum — alecsothblog @ 10:35 pm Last week I mentioned the new Magnum nominees. In response, one reader noted that newcomers usually have lobbyists within the membership. Martin Parr commented in agreement. Nobody knows better than Parr how difficult it is to get the necessary votes. In 1994, there wasn’t just lobbying, but a full-fledged campaign to keep Parr from becoming a full member. Just before the annual meeting, Philip Jones Griffiths wrote the following letter to his fellow members: I have known Marin Parr for almost 20 years and during that time I have observed his career with interest. He is an unusual photographer in the sense that he has always shunned the values that Magnum was built on. Not for him any of our concerned ‘finger on the pulse of society’ humanistic photography. He preached against us and was bold enough to deride us in print while his career as an ‘art’ photographer mushroomed…When he applied for associate membership I pointed out that our acceptance of him into Magnum would be more than simply taking on another photographer. It would be the embracing of a sworn enemy whose meteoric rise in Magnum was closely linked with the moral climate of Thatcher’s rule. His penchant for kicking the victims of Tory violence cause me to describe his pictures as ‘fascistic’ … Today he wants to be a member. The vote will be a declaration of who we are and a statement of how we see ourselves.

Course Blog: https://philosophyofimages.wordpress.com Course Description: A camera is an extension of our memories, a powerful tool if we understand its grammar. It is also a material force that is reshaping the way we live and look at one another. And many of us have them with us at all times. We act in conversation with them. We see that a camera at the right place and the right time is potentially world altering. Given the relative newness of photography as a technological practice, but at the same time, recognizing the strength of its influence in our increasingly image-driven social worlds, this is a course on philosophy and photography that is needed. Of design, it is equal parts theoretical, visual, and actively productive. 1 This syllabus aims to produce students who are better able to think, express themselves, and understand others in images, while rigorously coming to grips with the best photographic theory philosophy has to offer thus far.

  • Jeffrey Ladd & Peter Fraser
    Alec Soth's Archived Blog June 3, 2007 Jeffrey Ladd & Peter Fraser Filed under: artists — alecsothblog @ 2:23 pm I recently discovered an absolutely fantastic new blog. Unlike my rambling entries, 5B4 focuses on a single subject – photography books. None other than John Gossage has called it “the best Photobook blog on the web.” Overwhelmed by the quantity and quality of the posts, I wanted to know more about the author. But apparently he doesn’t want to be known. He doesn’t offer a profile and usually refers to himself as ‘Mr Whiskets.’ But after poking around I figured out that 5B4 is written by the photographer Jeffrey Ladd. I first came across Ladd’s work a few years ago. He is an artist of depth, sophistication and restraint. This last quality, I suspect, is why Ladd isn’t better known. Mr. Whiskets doesn’t beg for attention. Though his work hasn’t found a publisher, Ladd channels his love of photography books into the production of his own artist books: Ladd’s first post on 5B4 was on Martin Parr and Gerry Badger’s two-volume History of the Photobook. Ladd notes the way in which this recent attention has intensified the photobook as commercial collectible. Martin Parr recently gave me a copy of his new book, Parking Spaces. By signing the book on the cellophane wrapper, Parr forces a quandary: Which is more valuable, the signed collectible or the book itself? A couple of nights ago I had dinner with Parr and his fellow arbiter of history, Gerry Badger.

    NEW YEAR/NEW WORK IMAGES FROM NINE PHOTOGRAPHERS DAVID BRIERS ON PAUL BEAUCHAMP AND CALUM COLVIN AT CHAPTER IAN WALKER REVIEWS THE REPHOTOGRAPHIC SURVEY SWAN SONG With this issue of Creative Camera I am resigning as Publisher and Editor. It has been 4 News & Views more than 21 years and the magazine has passed through innumerable financial crises in Eileen Pilkington those years. I simply feel that as I approach my sixtieth birthday I wish to concentrate more on the things that I enjoy doing; taking photographs, writing articles, doing 7 Current Comment/ research, and even perhaps getting paid for it. In the last few years the work I have been doing is more and more that of a Publisher and less and less of that of an Editor. The Esther Samra future would seem to indicate only more of the same. I think that the work has got to be done now by a younger man and perhaps someone more specialised in business 8 Still Life/Review procedures. Keith Robinson Some of the issues, particularly the double issues, where I have been able to exercise my talents have been greatly enjoyable, even if largely unrewarded. The fact that they have been so well received augers well for my future. I cannot pretend to share the same 10 Paul Beauchamp and Calum amount of enthusiasm for all forms of photography and it seems sometimes to me as Colvin/Review David Briers though the increasing academic influence on contemporary photography is in danger of replacing the taking of photographs with talking about them.

At first glance, his photographs seem exaggerated or even grotesque. The motifs he chooses are strange, the colours are garish and the perspectives are unusual. Parr's term for the overwhelming power of published images is "propaganda". He counters this propaganda with his own chosen weapons: criticism, seduction and humour. As a result, his photographs are original and entertaining, accessible and understandable. But at the same time they show us in a penetrating way that we live, how we present ourselves to others, and what we value. Leisure, consumption and communication are the concepts that this British photographer has been researching for several decades now on his worldwide travels. In the process, he examines national characteristics and international phenomena to find out how valid they are as symbols that will help future generations to understand our cultural peculiarities. Parr enables us to see things that have seemed familiar to us in a completely new way. In this way he creates his own image of society, which allows us to combine an analysis of the visible signs of globalisation with unusual visual experiences.

The themes Parr selects and his inimitable treatment of them set him apart as a photographer whose work involves the creation of extensive series.
