Photography, Ecology and Historical Change in the Anthropocene (eBook, ePUB)

Activating Archives

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Moving beyond existing scholarship, this book connects photography, archives, ecology, and historical change, and critically applies the Anthropocene as framework to the in-depth study of artists' projects. It discards single modes of seeing environmental transformations in favour of a multiple and de-centred environmental imagination.
