As a former colonized nation, Indonesia has a unique place in the
history of photography. A History of Photography in Indonesia: From
the Colonial Era to the Digital Age looks at the development of
photography from the beginning and traces its uses in Indonesia
from its invention to the present day. The Dutch colonial
government first brought the medium to the East Indies in the 1840s
and immediately recognized its potential in serving the colonial
apparatus. As the country grew and changed, so too did the medium.
Photography was not only an essential tool of colonialism, but it
also became part of the movement for independence, a voice for
reformasi, an agent for advocating democracy, and is now available
to anyone with a phone. This book gathers essays by leading
artists, scholars, and curators from around the world who have
worked with photography in Indonesia and have traced the evolution
of the medium from its inception to the present day, addressing the
impact of photography on colonialism, independence, and
democratization.
