Résumé:
Who owns the past? Are museum archives and their re-collections of cultural heritage a cult of the dead-and if so, are we living in a necropolis? This book on photography, cemeteries, and the archive evolved out of an experimental research project at the Bibliotheca Hertzianain Rome, with its immense collection of canonic photographs from the history of art and architecture. An artist's book, it takes on the form of a description of an unfinished film in five acts-a cinematic fragment, so to speak: ''DOPOSTORIA.'' The title essay by Christoph Keller is complemented by two contributions on burial cultures in prehistory and in modernity from the archaeologist Maria Clara Martinelli and the modern historian Carolin Kosuch. A sequence of collages at the back of the book conjures up a phantasmagorical journey through an ancient-modern Rome.

Résumé:
This book deals with objects of migration on the central Mediterranean route. Traces of this phenomenon include objects left more or less voluntarily by migrant people along their journey, particularly upon arrival on the shores of Lampedusa and Sicily. Since 2013, hundreds of these objects have been retrieved by Massimo Ricciardo with his colleague Thomas Kilpper, and are now part of the “Objects of Escape – Inventories of Migration’’ archive. These objects are functional to the journey, such as biscuit tins and water bottles, passports and nautical charts, but they also relate to identity and memory, such as family photographs, diaries, or a handful of earth from their homeland. In the installation “Objects of Migration, Photo-Objects of Art History: Encounters in an Archive,” Ricciardo creates a dialogue between selected objects from this archive and structures from the KHI Photothek on the other. The installation, which led to this book, raises a series of highly relevant questions about these ‘talking’ objects: who do they belong to? Are they part of the cultural heritage? What would be the appropriate artistic and curatorial approach if one decided to collect, archive, exhibit, transform them?

Résumé:
This book tells the intertwined stories of photography and the American West--a new medium and a new place that came of age together in the nineteenth century. The story begins just a few years after the invention of the daguerreotype in 1839, as pioneering photographers followed American troops into the Mexican-American War. Taking advantage of rapidly developing technology, photographers soon set out across the overland trails, recorded the shifting fortunes of California’s goldseekers, pictured native peoples, and documented the spectacular topography of the American West. The new medium of photography made vivid a landscape few Americans had seen for themselves. Resurrecting scores of little-known images of the nineteenth-century American West, "Print the legend" offers engaging tales of ambitious photographic adventurers, missing photographs, and misinterpreted images. Chronicling both the history of a place and the history of a medium, this book portrays how Americans first came to understand western photographs and, consequently, to envision their nation.

Résumé:
Bruce Bernard was the leading picture editor of his generation, celebrated for his visual taste, knowledge and judgement of photography. In the 1990s, he was commissioned by a private client to assemble a photographic collection and set about acquiring a selection of images that represented, to his unique eye, the best work in the medium from the whole history of photography, ranging from nineteenth-century pioneers like Muybridge and Fox Talbot to giants of the twentieth century like André Kertész, Man Ray, Brassai and Robert Frank. These one hundred photographs are the result: he does not attempt to cover every period or every notable artist, but rather includes only images that ‘truly stimulated and satisfied … and seemed could permanently continue to do so’. In other words what he considered to be classics.

Résumé:
La photographie et la réalité sont intimement liées, et pourtant, que l'on se fasse photographier, que l'on produise ou que l'on regarde une image photographique, la photographie demeure un acte d'imagination. À travers neuf textes de fond originaux, des historiens de l'art et des théoriciens de la culture rompent avec la tradition photographique pour explorer le rôle crucial de l'imagination en photographie, depuis les portraits de studio du XIXe siècle jusqu'aux innovations numériques du XXIe siècle. Prenant appui sur les vingt-neuf expositions du Mois de la Photo à Montréal 2005, Image & Imagination présente les travaux de soixante artistes contemporains en provenance du Canada, de l'Australie, des États-Unis, de la France, de l'Angleterre, d'Haïti et du Japon, dont Marc Audette, Iain Baxter, Diane Borsato, Alain Bublex, Michel Campeau, Destiny Deacon, Evergon, Denis Farley, Adad Hannah, David Hlynsky, Tracey Moffatt, Shana et Robert ParkeHarrison, Lynne Marsh, Polixeni Papapetrou, Martin Parr, Ramona Ramlochand, Carolee Schneemann, Michael Snow et Hulleah J. Tsinhnahjinnie. On retrouve, parmi les auteurs, Geoffrey Batchen (City University of New York), Catherine Bédard (Centre culturel canadien, Paris), Fae Brauer (University of New South Wales), Francine Dagenais (Université McGill), Martyn Jolly (Australian National University), Petra Halkes (Université Concordia), Martha Langford (Université Concordia), Kirsty Robertson (Queen's University) et Ian Walker (University of Wales College).

Résumé:
Not until the fall of the communist regime in 1989 and the end of Czechoslovakia's cultural isolation did the world begin to appreciate the Czech avant-garde photographers of the first half of the twentieth century. This first survey of Czech avant-garde photography introduces the important work of František Drtikol, Jaromir Funke, Jaroslav Rössler, Jindøich Štyrský, Josef Sudek, and numerous others whose work made Czech photography synonymous with visions of modernity. The essays introduce the period and explore the background and connections among the photographers. Biographical profiles are also included. But the book's main attraction is its outstanding collection of duotone and color images, many published here for the first time. The Czech edition of this book received the "Best Photographic Publication of 1999-2000" award from Primavera Fotográfica in Barcelona and from Month of Photography in Bratislava and was one of six finalists for the 2001 Kraszna-Krausz Photography Book Award.
