Book Synopsis Imaging Culture by : Candace M. Keller
Download or read book Imaging Culture written by Candace M. Keller and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2021-07-06 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imaging Culture is a sociohistorical study of the meaning, function, and aesthetic significance of photography in Mali, West Africa, from the 1930s to the present. Spanning the dynamic periods of colonialism, national independence, socialism, and democracy, its analysis focuses on the studio and documentary work of professional urban photographers, particularly in the capital city of Bamako and in smaller cities such as Mopti and Ségu. Featuring the work of more than twenty-five photographers, it concentrates on those who have been particularly influential for the local development and practice of the medium as well as its international popularization and active participation in the contemporary art market. Imaging Culture looks at how local aesthetic ideas are visually communicated in the photographers' art and argues that though these aesthetic arrangements have specific relevance for local consumers, they transcend geographical and cultural boundaries to have value for contemporary global audiences as well. Imaging Culture is an important and visually interesting book which will become a standard source for those who study African photography and its global impact.
Book Synopsis La photographie africaine contemporaine by : Vincent Godeau
Download or read book La photographie africaine contemporaine written by Vincent Godeau and published by Editions L'Harmattan. This book was released on 2015-11-01 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La "photographie africaine" (1989-2015) ne constitue ni un genre, ni un mouvement artistique. L'adjectif "africaine" désigne en fait un cadre géographique, seul rescapé de la suspicion généralisée envers toute tentative définitionnelle. Les acteurs de cette photographie abordent souvent leur sujet sous un angle politique. S'il n'y a pas de spécificité formelle de la photographie africaine, il y a un cas photographique africain : on s'interroge souvent sur ce que cette photographie est censée être.

Book Synopsis The Market Photo Workshop in South Africa and the 'Born Free' Generation by : Julie Bonzon
Download or read book The Market Photo Workshop in South Africa and the 'Born Free' Generation written by Julie Bonzon and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-09-15 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study presents the history of the Market Photo Workshop (MPW) in Johannesburg and works produced by its new generation of photography students. Founded in 1989 by internationally renowned documentary photographer David Goldblatt, the MPW has reflected upon South African political struggles and sociocultural changes since its creation. Its foundation parallels a moment in time when photography was considered a ‘truth telling’ genre and an essential source of documents deployed against the apartheid regime. This book reflects on the evolution of the MPW in the post-apartheid era and explores how its new generation of students engages the photographic tradition of this institution and the revolutionary times that accompanied its creation to question their present moment. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, visual studies, photography, African studies, cultural studies and post-colonial studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Au début du XXe siècle, les migrants yoruba, originaires des villes rattachées à l'ancien royaume d'Oyo au Nigeria, sont considérées dans tout l'Ouest africain comme d'habiles commerçants. A la veille des indépendances, quelques-uns se risquent dans une nouvelle voie et s'installent comme photographes dans des villes comme Niamey, Abidjan où la demande est réelle, mais l'offre limitée. Cet ouvrage aborde un sujet peu connu et peu étudié, celui du métier de photographe en Afrique de l'Ouest, un métier en pleine évolution, dont le savoir-faire et les productions constituent un héritage précieux qui documente l'histoire contemporaine de l'Afrique et qu'il est urgent de préserver.
Book Synopsis Photography in Africa by : Richard Vokes
Download or read book Photography in Africa written by Richard Vokes and published by Boydell & Brewer Ltd. This book was released on 2012 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gives an ethnographic account of the complexities of the use of photography in Africa, both historically and in contemporary practice. This collection of studies in African photography examines, through a series of empirically rich historical and ethnographic cases, the variety of ways in which photographs are produced, circulated, and engaged across a range of social contexts. In so doing, it elucidates the distinctive characteristics of African photographic practices and cultures, vis-à-vis those of other forms of 'vernacular photography' worldwide. In addition, these studies develop areflexive turn, examining the history of academic engagement with these African photographic cultures, and reflecting on the distinctive qualities of the ethnographic method as a means for studying such phenomena. The volumecritically engages current debates in African photography and visual anthropology. First, it extends our understanding of the variety of ways in which both colonial and post-colonial states in Africa have used photography as a means for establishing, and projecting, their authority. Second, it moves discussion of African photography away from an exclusive focus on the role of the 'the studio' and looks at the circulations through which the studios' products - the photographs themselves - later pass as artefacts of material culture. Last, it makes an important contribution to our understanding of the relationship between photography and ethnographic research methods, as these have been employed in Africa. RICHARD VOKES is Senior Lecturer in Anthropology and Development Studies at the University of Adelaide, Australia, and author of Ghosts of Kanungu

Download or read book Unfixed written by Jennifer Bajorek and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2020-02-07 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Unfixed Jennifer Bajorek traces the relationship between photography and decolonial political imagination in Francophone west Africa in the years immediately leading up to and following independence from French colonial rule in 1960. Focusing on images created by photographers based in Senegal and Benin, Bajorek draws on formal analyses of images and ethnographic fieldwork with photographers to show how photography not only reflected but also actively contributed to social and political change. The proliferation of photographic imagery—through studio portraiture, bureaucratic ID cards, political reportage and photojournalism, magazines, and more—provided the means for west Africans to express their experiences, shape public and political discourse, and reimagine their world. In delineating how west Africans' embrace of photography was associated with and helped spur the democratization of political participation and the development of labor and liberation movements, Bajorek tells a new history of photography in west Africa—one that theorizes photography's capacity for doing decolonial work.
Book Synopsis Embodying Relation by : Allison Moore
Download or read book Embodying Relation written by Allison Moore and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2020-06-22 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Embodying Relation Allison Moore examines the tensions between the local and the global in the art photography movement in Bamako, Mali, which blossomed in the 1990s after Malian photographers Seydou Keïta and Malick Sidibé became internationally famous and the Bamako Photography Biennale was founded. Moore traces the trajectory of Malian photography from the 1880s—when photography first arrived as an apparatus of French colonialism—to the first African studio practitioners of the 1930s and the establishment in 1994 of the Bamako Biennale, Africa's most important continent-wide photographic exhibition. In her detailed discussion of Bamakois artistic aesthetics and institutions, Moore examines the post-fame careers of Keïta and Sidibé, the biennale's structure, the rise of women photographers, cultural preservation through photography, and how Mali's shift to democracy in the early 1990s enabled Bamako's art scene to flourish. Moore shows how Malian photographers' focus on cultural exchange, affective connections with different publics, and merging of traditional cultural precepts with modern notions of art embody Caribbean philosopher and poet Édouard Glissant's notion of “relation” in ways that spark new artistic forms, practices, and communities.
