A revelatory look at the photography that shaped American jazz.
Sight Readings considers the work of a range of American jazz photographers from the turn of the twentieth century through the Jazz Age and into the 1960s. Drawing on extensive archival research; the empirical documentation of photographers, their techniques, and working practices; and cultural theory, aesthetics, cultural sociology, and the politics of identity, Alan John Ainsworth examines jazz as a visual subject, explores its attraction to different types of photographers, and analyzes why and how they approached the subject in the ways they did.
While some of the photographers are widely recognized today, the volume also explores lesser-known figures of the period-including African American photojournalists, studio photographers, early twentieth-century émigrés, and Jewish exiles of the 1930s-whose contributions are often overlooked. Informed by ideas from contemporary photographic theory and with a foreword by Darius Brubeck, Sight Readings is a wide-ranging, eye-opening new look at twentieth-century jazz photography and the people behind it.
Alan John Ainsworth is an independent scholar based in Edinburgh. He researches and writes mainly on jazz, jazz photography, history of photography, architecture, and design.
