Publisher Description: A new theoretical perspective on place in photography. Drawing on theoretical insights from geography and philosophy, Ali Shobeiri examines how six fundamentals of photography--the photographer, camera, photograph, image, spectator, and genre--manifest unique, contingent notions of "place." The geophilosophy that emerges offers a new language for understanding how "place" encapsulates everything that invites and resists location, identity, story, function, and meaning. |
