From amateur experiments in scrapbooks and stereographs to
contemporary photobook collaborations between leading
practitioners, poets and photographers have created an art form
that continues to evolve and deserves critical exploration.
Photopoetry 1845-2015: A Critical History represents the first
account of this challenging and diverse body of work. Nott traces
the development of photopoetic collaboration from its roots in
19th-century illustrative practices to the present day. Focusing on
work from the UK and US, he examines how and why poets and
photographers collaborate, and explores the currents of exchange
and engagement between poems and photographs on the page. The book
not only considers canonical figures, but brings to light forgotten
practitioners whose work questioned and shaped the relationship
between word and image. Photopoetry 1845-2015, a Critical History
provides a new lens through which to explore poetry, photography,
and the spaces between them.
