The before-and-after trope in photography has long paired images to
represent change: whether affirmatively, as in the results of
makeovers, social reforms or medical interventions, or negatively,
in the destruction of the environment by the impacts of war or
natural disasters. This interdisciplinary, multi-authored volume
examines the central but almost unspoken position of
before-and-after photography found in a wide range of contexts from
the 19th century through to the present. Packed with case studies
that explore the conceptual implications of these images, the
book's rich language of evidence, documentation and persuasion
present both historical material and the work of practicing
photographers who have deployed - and challenged - the conventions
of the before-and-after pairing. Touching on issues including
sexuality, race, environmental change and criminality,
Before-and-After Photography examines major topics of current
debate in the critique of photography in an accessible way to allow
students and scholars to explore the rich conceptual issues around
photography's relationship with time andimagination.
