To fully understand photography, it is essential to study both
the theoretical and the technical.
In an accessible yet complex way, Rebekah Modrak and Bill Anthes
explore photographic theory, history and technique to bring
photographic education up-to-date with contemporary photographic
practice. Reframing Photography is a broad and inclusive rethinking
of photography that will inspire students to think about the medium
across time periods, across traditional themes, and through varied
materials. Intended for both beginners and advanced students, and
for art and non-art majors, and practicing artists, Reframing
Photography compellingly represents four concerns common to all
photographic practice:
- vision
- light/shadow
- reproductive processes
- editing/ presentation/ evaluation.
Each part includes an extensive and thoughtful essay, providing
a broad cultural context for each topic, alongside discussion of
photographic examples. Essays introduce the work of artists who use
a diverse range of subject matter and a variety of processes
(straight photography, social documentary, digital, mixed media,
conceptual work, etc.), examine artists' conceptual and technical
choices, describe cultural implications and artistic influences,
and analyze how these concerns interrelate. Following each essay,
each part continues with a "how-to" section that describes a
fascinating range of related photographic equipment, materials and
methods through concise explanations and clear diagrams.
