image/con/text. Dokumentarische Praktiken zwischen Kunst, Journalismus und Aktivismus
The new [IMAGE MATTERS] publication by Reimer Verlag is out now. Edited by Karen Fromm, Sophia Greiff, Malte Radtki and Anna Stemmler.
ISBN 978-3-496-01646-5
New journalistic and artistic narrative forms generate new perspectives for photojournalism and documentary photography, stretching and transcending the conventional bounds of the documentary form. This is seen very clearly in the medium of the photo book, but also in film, multimedia and the comic genre. Works building on a complementarity of evidence highlight the contextuality of photography, demonstrating how meaning can only be comprehended through a complex interplay of image, text and document. The strategies examined in this volume bring together journalistic, artistic and activist positions, weaving fact and fiction to reveal the constellations of power in the process of representation.
With visual and verbal essays by: Laia Abril, Crofton Black, Edmund Clark, Susanne von Falkenhausen, Joan Fontcuberta, Karen Fromm, Sophia Greiff, Thomas Helbig, Eva Leitolf, Regine Petersen, Max Pinckers, Peter Puklus, Malte Radtki, Fred Ritchin, Anja Schürmann, Alisha Sett, Anna Stemmler, Florian Sturm, Friedrich Weltzien.
Edited by Karen Fromm, Sophia Greiff, Malte Radtki and Anna Stemmler.
