Summary:
Cette publication, qui regroupe en quatre parties des essais de douze auteurs, représente une avancée majeure dans l’analyse de la représentation photographique de l’architecture indienne et une référence en étude de l’histoire post-colonialiste de cette région. Les auteurs démontrent collectivement que l’on doit non seulement interpréter les photographies présentées comme un simple témoignage du passé architectural indien, mais aussi y voir le résultat d’un ensemble complexe de composantes politiques et culturelles qui ont forgé l’Inde coloniale. Les douze auteurs sont : la commissaire associée du CCA, Maria Antonella Pelizzari; l’historien de l’art Stephen Bann; les historiens en photographie Julia Ballerini, John Falconer et Janet Dewan; l’historien en anthropologie Nicholas Dirks; le théoricien en politique Partha Chatterjee; les historiens de la période coloniale Tapati Guha-Thakurta et Peter H. Hoffenberg, Narayani Gupta et Thomas R. Metcalf; et l’anthropologue Christopher Pinney.

Summary:
Photography and Italy traces the history of photography in Italy from its beginnings to the present as she guides us through the history of Italy and its ancient sites and Renaissance landmarks. Pelizzari specifically considers the role of photography in the formation of Italian national identity during times of political struggle, such as the lead up to Unification in 1860, and later in the nationalist wars of Mussolini’s regime. While many Italians and foreigners— such as Fratelli Alinari or Carlo Ponti, John Ruskin or Kit Talbot—focused their lenses on architectural masterpieces, others documented the changing times and political heroes, creating icons of figures such as Garibaldi and the brigands. Pelizzari’s exploration of Italian visual traditions also includes the photographic collages of Bruno Munari, the neorealist work of photographers such as Franco Pinna, the bold stylized compositions of Mario Giacomelli, and the controversial images created by Oliviero Toscani for Benetton advertising in the 1980s.

Summary:
The publication features essays by twelve authors grouped in four parts. It represents a major advance in the study of nineteenth century photographic representations of Indian architecture and a benchmark in the study of post-colonial history. Collectively, the authors demonstrate how photographs can be read not just as records of an architectural past, but as complex artefacts of the cultural and political forces shaping colonial India. Contributors include CCA Associate Curator Maria Antonella Pelizzari; art historian Stephen Bann; historians of photography Julia Ballerini, John Falconer and Janet Dewan; historical anthropologist Nicholas Dirks; political theorist Partha Chatterjee; colonial historians Tapati Guha-Thakurta and Peter H. Hoffenberg, Narayani Gupta and Thomas R. Metcalf; and anthropologist Christopher Pinney.
