Through the fusion of two critical practices, Jane Simon argues that artists who engage with domestic photography possess the potential to expand our understanding of the autobiographical.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book delves into the notion that self-representation can extend beyond the confines of self-portraiture or the human form. It showcases a diverse range of artists from around the world, including Rinko Kawauchi, Catherine Opie, Dayanita Singh, Moyra Davey, and Elina Brotherus, who maintain a personal and intimate gaze at the details of domestic life. By treating the representation of interiors, domestic objects, and the act of photographic seeing and framing as autobiographical gestures, the book challenges traditional notions of the relationship between interiors and exteriors, public and private. It emphasizes the significance of domestic interiors in understanding the self and photography.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book will appeal to scholars and researchers working in the fields of photographic history and theory, art history, and visual studies. It offers a fresh perspective on the role of the domestic in shaping artistic practices and provides valuable insights into the complex interplay between self, photography, and the broader social context.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 470g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 246 x 174 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367543402\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"JaneSimon","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44584329380090,"sku":"9780367543402","price":152.32,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1695401025809_book.jpg?v=1695494923","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-domestic-interior-and-the-self-in-contemporary-photography-9780367543402","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
