"Positions" addresses the ascent of architectural photography as a
discipline, and the changing role of the architectural
photographer. Once merely charged with providing a purely
documentary representation of a building, the architectural
photographer now offers a personal interpretation of the work of
the architect, urban planner or landscape designer--what the
editors of this volume term "commissioned interpretive
photography," which raises the question of what "working on
assignment" might mean. The common factor that unites the
photographers presented here--Theo Baart, Bas Princen, Ralph
Kamena, Jannes Linders, Jeroen Musch and Hans Werlemann--is that
each of them has brought a highly personal perspective to bear upon
their approach to their commissions, and that each of their oeuvres
has had a direct impact on contemporary architecture and urban
planning. "Positions" examines the photographer's emancipation from
documentary constraint to creative agency. A "selective
historiography" provides an overview of the development of
architectural photography on commission, and further texts describe
methods of collaboration between photographer and architect.
