Book The Photography of John Brill

Download or read book The Photography of John Brill written by John Brill and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning with staged portraits and self-portraits, John Brill's imagery becomes increasingly nebulous, increasingly concerned with how resonance can remain unaffected by the systematic removal of content. Taking scavenged pictures, some from real life and some from off the television screen, Brill works to distance the image from its origin through multiple printings, fragmentation, tonal shifts, and value reversals. In the end, the pictures derive more from mind than from matter, projections of Brill's own will, contrived of his own desire. John Brill was born in Newark, New Jersey, in 1951. With a degree in physiological psychology, Brill steeped himself in the scientific method--the practice of discriminating fact from hypothesis--before committing himself in 1981 to art making. Since then, he has shown in galleries in New York, Atlanta, and Hoboken.

Book Imaging and Imagining Palestine

Download or read book Imaging and Imagining Palestine written by Karène Sanchez Summerer and published by Open Jerusalem. This book was released on 2021 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Imaging and Imagining Palestine is the first comprehensive study of photography during the British Mandate period (1918-1948). It addresses well-known archives, photos from private collections never available before and archives that have until recently remained closed. This interdisciplinary volume argues that photography is central to a different understanding of the social and political complexities of Palestine in this period. While Biblical and Orientalist images abound, the chapters in this book go further by questioning the impact of photography on the social histories of British Mandate Palestine. This book considers the specific archives, the work of individual photographers, methods for reading historical photography from the present and how we might begin the process of decolonising photography"--
