| art.description.summary | Tell It Like It Is – Contemporary Photography and
the Lure of the Real brings together a number of
discourses of the changing same, through the specificities of contemporary philosophical argument
(common sense vs. deniers of the worth of the
concept of truth) and argument in contemporary
photography and art (inherent truth claim vs. cultural
contextualization of an image). It does this not only
by flying high on the effects of abstract theory, but by
seeking dialogue with practice.
The dialogue takes place through the engaged participation
of all four artists involved: Mads Gamdrup,
Annika von Hausswolff, Esko Männikkö and Vibeke
Tandberg. All have a long-term position and back
catalogue of works and visions into these matters
that matter.
This book is made with and for both students and
professionals in contemporary practice and discourses
of photography – not understood as a strictly controlled
medium, but as a content-driven activity with
a clear sense of its past, connected to the variations
of its present articulations.
Mika Hannula is a writer, critic and curator. He is a
professor for artistic research at the Department of
Photography, Faculty of Fine, Applied and Performing
Arts, University of Gothenburg. | sv |
