Taylor & Francis Ltd Active Landscape Photography
Book SynopsisHow can photography be transformed into an active process of investigation for landscape architecture and environmental design? The second book in Godfreyâs series, Active Landscape Photography, presents engaged photographic methods that turn photography into a rigorous, thoughtful endeavor for the research, planning and design of landscape places. Photography is the most ubiquitous and important form of representation in these disciplines. Yet photography is not specifically taught as a core skill within these fields. This book creates a starting point for filling this gap. Concepts and working methods from contemporary photography and critical cultural theories are contextualized into situations encountered in the daily practice of landscape architecture and environmental design. These methods can be integrated into practices in academic and professional settings or picked up and self-taught by an individual reader. Part I: Methods presents easily accessible approaches to photography creating a core set of active skills. Part II: Practices discusses working methods of specific contemporary photographers and extrapolates their practices into common extrapolates their practices into common planning and design situations. Contemporary photographers presented include Richard Misrach, Dawoud Bey, Duane Michals, Latoya Ruby Frazier, Mark Klett, Sophie Calle, Joe Deal, Robert Adams, Naima Green, Bernd and Hilla Becher, Stephen Shore, David Hockney, Amy Sherald, William Christenberry, Jeff Wall, and Sohei Nishino. Beautifully illustrated in full color with over 150 images by Godfrey, her students, and contemporary photographers, this book provides both clear guidelines for a set of diverse methods as well as a deeper discussion about the implications of making and using photography in environmental design for professionals, academics, students and researchers.Table of ContentsIntroduction; Terms, Assumptions and Concepts; Part I: Methods; Method 1 Slowing Down; Method 2 Limits; Method 3 Asking Questions; Method 4 Not Photographing; Method 5 Quick Simple Things; Method 6 Frame: Reframe; Method 7 Compositional Sets: Horizon Line, Focal Point, Near and Far; Method 8 Changing Point of View: Imagining and Embodying; Method 9 Photographing What Someone Else Sees; Method 10 Casual Composition: Note-Taking; Method 11 Time With Photographs; Method 12 Significance of the Unphotographed; Part II: Practices; Practice 1 Series: Narrative; Practice 2 Predetermined Path: Regularized Photographing; Practice 3 Distance: Stepping Back; Practice 4 Re-Photography: More Than Comparison; Practice 5 Community; Practice 6 Things Take Time: Time Takes Things; Practice 7 Joining: Combining; Practice 8 Rules: Games, Drifts, Prompts; Practice 9 Many Others: Many Interpretations; Practice 10 Narrative: Writing What You Don’t See; Acknowledgments; Bibliography; Index

Taylor & Francis Ltd Using Visual Technology in Educational
Book SynopsisIntroducing readers to debates underpinning the uses of visual technology in educational ethnography, this book takes actual research projects across different country contexts to discuss how research designs can use visual technology in educational ethnography; to show connections between theory, method and research problems.The book begins by introducing readers to three epistemological positions underpinning the use of visual technology in social science and educational research: the scientific realist, reflexive, and dialectic. It illustrates the uses of visual technology in the form of digital film and photographs, and how as a source of data, it has potential in developing ethnographic knowledge and representation in a range of educational contexts. The ideas are illustrated through three research projects in the context of classrooms, home environments and intervention work with practitioners. With clear practical applications, this resource considers the part theory p

Taylor & Francis Contemporary Art Photography and the Politics of
Book SynopsisThis book analyzes recent artistic and activist projects in order to conceptualize the new roles and goals of a critical theory and practice of art and photography. Vered Maimon argues that current artistic and activist practices are no longer concerned with the âœpolitics of representationâ and the critique of the spectacle, but with a âœpolitics of rightsâ and the performative formation of shared yet highly contested public domains.The book thus offers a critical framework in which to rethink the artistic, the activist, and the political under globalization. The primary focus is on the ways contemporary artists and activists examine political citizenship as a paradox where subjects are struggling to acquire rights whose formulation rests on attributes they allegedly don't have; while the universal political validity of these rights presupposes precisely the abstraction of every form of difference, rights for all.The book will be of interest to scholars working in artTable of ContentsIntroduction 1.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Photography Reconstruction and the Cultural
Book SynopsisExamining imagery of urban space in Britain, France and West Germany up to the early 1960s, this book reveals how photography shaped individual architectural projects and national rebuilding efforts alike. Exploring the impact of urban photography at a pivotal moment in contemporary European architecture and culture, this book addresses case studies spanning the destruction of the war to the modernizing reconfiguration of city spaces, including ruin photobooks about bombed cities, architectural photography of housing projects and imagery of urban life from popular photomagazines, as well as internationally renowned projects like UNESCO's Paris Headquarters, Coventry Cathedral and Berlin's Gedächtniskirche. This book reveals that the ways of seeing shaped in the postwar years by urban photography were a vital aspect of not only discourses on the postwar city but also debates central to popular culture, from commemoration and modernization to democratization and EuropeanizationTrade Review"Throughout this incredibly rich and detailed book, Allbeson asserts that photographs deserve the same rigorous treatment as any other empirical source. The author has delivered an intellectual tour de force that takes us to the war-torn landscapes of cities and towns in Britain, France and Germany."--German History"This diligently researched and engagingly written book will be a valuable resource and model for urban historians, historians of visual culture and all those interested in the fascinating inter-relation between history, urban transformations and the role that photography played in complicating that history."--Urban History"...a strong archival and empirical study that effectively emphasises the transnational similarities and relationships of representation that existed between post-war France, Britain and Germany. ...This is in many ways a rich and significant work that will prompt discussions in post-war European history— which includes Britain—on the importance of visual modalities of reconstruction mentalities."--Contemporary British HistoryTable of Contents1.
