Rather than solely focusing on the visual content depicted in photographs,Living Pictures poses the essential question: what do photographs actually accomplish? It recognizes that photographs possess a dynamic nature, capable of movement and action, and in doing so, they exert a profound influence on the surrounding world. This catalogue serves as a companion to the groundbreaking survey of the medium's historical trajectory across Southeast Asia, spanning from its early origins in the 19th century to its diverse contemporary manifestations. A particular emphasis is placed on exploring the processes of photography's creation, dissemination, and consumption, as well as how these processes have shaped the visual regimes of the region. In addition to essays penned by the curators and insightful interviews with artists and photographers showcased in the exhibition, the catalogue showcases cutting-edge research by esteemed international scholars, delving into the interdisciplinary intersections between photography and art history, archaeology, and cultural theory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 200g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 287 x 230 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9789811840449\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44201315500282,"sku":"9789811840449","price":21.42,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_f7210a0c-d776-416e-a861-165dfc801eff.jpg?v=1682792596","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/living-pictures-photography-in-southeast-asia-9789811840449","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
